I will vote for Joe Biden and I want desperately for him to win. But for establishment Democrats to talk as though that will fix everything or as though Dems haven’t enabled the emergence of this horrifying authoritarian wave, will neither solve the problem nor even help him win.

Marianne, we hardly knew you and you were gone too soon.

Electing Trump is a virtual guarantee if autocracy. Biden gives the country a chance to regroup. But, yes, there are opportunists everywhere and the allure of the groundwork already lain is palpable. We have to be vigilant and press for transparency and accountability.

Biden won't fix anything but Trump is a risk to our security here and globally. However, what I do love is a change in narrative that Biden is forced to embrace. Bernies ideas are lovely but there could be a middle of the road meet. A foundation to put quality human life first.

Biden had done NOTHING to win my valuable vote. I am setting down, donating, and volunteering for the one that represents my value. Without looking at their faces or party affiliation in which column is your heart and your principles?

This is precisely why he will never get my vote. The "Democrats" are not serious about this fight and Progressives voting him into office sends the message that we are not serious about ours. Voting him in sends the message that they can offer us dog shit & we'll comply anyways

There is only one thing scarier than Biden winning. Trump winning. Since it should be easy to have @HowieHawkins win, I have hope.

I liked it because at least it acknowledges problems with the system. But we’re way past salvaging the system. Revolution is not chaos, it is movement back to order. There’s no need for violence if oppressors relinquish their power peacefully. They are the aggressors.

The "but" cancels out everything you mentioned in the first sentence. Vote for the sake of peace and love for your country. No judgement. That's just my opinion.

At this point, we don’t need a President. Each community can take care of themselves. Stop income tax and the fed.
