    That’s because you fuckers want Biden and aren’t even willing to try and get someone better.

    You guys are all so scared of what will happen when you fail that you don’t give yourselves a chance to succeed

      I mean, if we had a young, progressive leader with the backing of the DNC, I’d support that candidate. Is Johnny Milquetoast that candidate? This isn’t a wide open primary where there is no incumbent.

      And yes we’re scared of failure. Biden is hardly the leader we need, but Trump attempted a violent coup and sold state secrets to foreign governments. He is a racist, xenophobic fascist who has said in court that he can assassinate his political rivals with immunity from prosecution, and that fucker put 3 justices on the supreme court.

      This is not a fuck around and find out situation.

        Sounds like you guys should really run a good candidate instead of bypass congress twice to give weapons to israel to kill brown children.

          Sounds like you’re not interested in countering their point, you just want to climb up on a soapbox and rant about “you guys” this and “you guys” that all day. Lemmy is for discussion, you’re looking for a blog.

          Ah, so the penny drops. You hate Biden for his support of Israel. I get that. Israel is engaged in a genocide, and I wish we had a president, or a populace, with the political will to stop it. Are any of the democratic primary challengers running on that?

          Israel should be stopped. The people of Gaza deserve the same human rights as every other human on the planet.

          But universal human rights aren’t on the table. We’re not going to stop supporting Israel. Trump won’t stop supporting Israel. Well, actually, he might if someone pays him enough, but guaranteed the resulting clusterfuck would be a disaster of at least equal proportion. And the damage Trump would do in every other aspect of human life makes that a nonstarter.

            I’d be pretty surprised if Marianne Williamson was pro-war.
