"Failure to vote for Biden in a swing state amounts to voting for Trump." In an interview with me, Noam Chomsky compares the #NeverBiden ppl to Communists in the 1930s who refused to ally with social democrats against the Nazis: "We know where that led."

Noam Chomsky on the #NeverBiden Movement on the Left

“You can debate a lot of things, but not arithmetic,” says Noam Chomsky on the #NeverBiden movement. “Failure to vote for Biden in this election in a swing state amounts to voting for Trump.”

As he said, you can’t debate arithmetic.

No, but we can debate whether the guy who helped mass-murder over a million Iraqis is actually preferable to the other guy.

His claim is idiotic. Trump is not Hitler, Biden is not a social democrat, this conflict between the Communists and SDP had NOTHING to do with electoral politics, AND HITLER WASN'T ELECTED!

Yeah, you can't. Joe has one apple. Donald has one apple. Howie has no apples. You give Howie an apple. How many apples does everyone have now? If you said Donald has two, you are wrong.

This isn't a math problem, though. It is a moral, societal, and psychological one. Biden would only be a demented puppet for the DNC and oligarchs. "Nothing will fundamentally change."

His arithmetic is literally wrong. "Failing" to vote for Biden is no more a vote for Trump than "failing" to vote for Trump is a vote for Biden. The only way either of them actually gain a vote is if you vote for one of them. Simple reminder:

We can accept that were "voting for trump" then Hell with all these people saying it I might as well do it I wouldn't but if I didn't disagree with trumps policy I would. Biden has the capacity even more dangerous with 16 years in office

It's not arithmetic. If you vote Trump and not Biden, that's a 2 person-swing. If you vote 3rd party and not Biden, that's a 1 person-swing: (1) Voting for Trump: Trump 1, Biden 0 (+1) (2) Voting for Biden: Trump 0, Biden, 1 (-1) (3) Voting for 3rd: Trump 0, Biden, 0 (0)
