    I’ve got news for you, biden is already actively worsening the situation in Gaza. He’s giving israel all they want to carry out their genocide. Don’t talk about privilege while you excuse genocide.

      Not voting for Biden makes it worse than it is right now. If Biden is not going to be president, the utter maniac Trump is. You can oppose the war on Gaza and still see this simple truth.

          A first past the post voting system that over-represents rural areas

          The extremely conservative US mindset

          The fact that right wingers are somewhat unified and will always vote for their candidate no matter what while progressives are split.

          The fundamental problem is that you can’t possibly hope to boil politics down into two parties. Republicans are far right while Democrats are liberal conservatives. There exist leftist ideas within the democratic party but they don’t really have a voice. What you need to fix this mess is proportional voting, a less powerful president and preferably one who is elected by a parliament coalition and not directly.

          Until you have that, the only sane thing to do is vote for the less insane party.
