He's been pro-giving weapons to Ukraine Congress had dragged their feet but that's not the point.
You should vote whoever best represents your interests. If no candidate does then find the next best option.
If you want to start a violent revolution in support of Ukraine, Palatine, more aggressive environmental targets etc. I'll be the first in line but I will never condone reactionary voting/apathy. All it does is make the system worse.
I appreciate that. But bread and circuses still hold more sway than the need for change. And just to be clear. A vote for Biden is still apathy, just a slower decline than the Republican flavor. I see no way to vote ourselves out of this tantrum spiral we are in.
When Fox News does another gloating over Biden’s further slipping numbers, let’s skip the part where we blame the disenfranchised voters, yea?
No, I will blame them, at least partially I'm not saying it isn't understandable, things are hard all around and the complexities of voting don't make it any easier but it is every individuals duty to uphold democracy to the best of their ability.
Absence of a vote is still a vote.
As long as most of the blame is on Biden then sure blame away. But do we really need a post about it everyday? It seems to me this isn’t about changing minds. But more getting our Scapegoats ready if Biden fails.
