We need to elect @JoeBiden because there’s a fascist in the White House.Period.Full stop. But we also need to see through the systemic corruption of our current political system & reinvent it quickly. It’s an unworthy container for our collective longing to create a better world

I get what you're saying but every pres cycle has the "but this person needs to go, we can work for change next time". It's been the trope for my entire lifespan. I'm voting green and the duopoly can fuck off.

I didn’t say that though. I think we need to work for change all the way up to the election and starting big-time from the day after.

no, Marianne, starting right now.
I'm sorry but this starting to play the game after it's been lost ...the most important thing in this election for me is to see a 3rd party take root. A people's party must become viable .I'm voting for what I believe in.

1/2 I agree with you Maryanne but I’m I get what they’re saying. My entire life (only 52 years but still), I’ve heard that we gotta vote for the least of two evils & then fix things in between. It has not worked so far.

2/2 Maybe it’s diff this time. Or maybe nothing changes as long as we keep enabling the establishment. I will prob vote for Biden because Trump’s narcissism is off the charts but am extremely hesitant to do ANYTHING that could be misconstrued as a vote FOR Biden/establishment.
Look at bidens past record, it's horrendous. What leverage do you really think there will be to push him left AFTER handing him that golden ring of presidency that he's been coveting his entire adult life? Can't give the kids desert than expect them to eat the brussel sprouts.

Fuck the day after, we the public need a better solution today. Politicians always create an imaginary solution to end their own corruption: and a day after, they get elected, they forget of their imaginary solution because there’s no personal monetary profit.
