A lot of people talk about how Biden needs to “earn my vote.” Of course he didn’t “earn your vote.” But I think this is less about what he owes us & more about what we owe millions of people in this country & billions throughout the world who will be affected by a 2nd Trump term.

we need to make sure that #PeoplesConvention makes a point RN... that the vote needs to be EARNED.

Actually, it doesn’t. We all know what happened here. So this isn’t about Biden earning our vote; it’s about stopping Trump from being president again. In my mind, breaking democracy’s free fall descent into the pit of fascism is reason enough.

No effective way to demand better from the party that supposedly represents us; now they straight up admit we can't hold them to account. Sorry, I may vote for Biden-Harris, but I won't pretend enthusiasm. & it's the *Dem Party elites* who aren't recognizing the peril ahead.

Let us know how you plan to be helpful to Joe, Kamala and their team. Or.... I will understand that this is the expression of a temporary position and wait for the next Tweet.
Okay, *in your mind*. But for some that clearly isn't enough, and rather than continue these foolish vote shaming messages, you should aim your sights up at the Biden camp and ask why he can't even do the bare minimum to earn those votes.

If we reward the DNC for colluding & rigging against progressives (Bernie) for 2 elections in a row how are we protecting Democracy?

Get real. The political system is controlled by a diabolical class. No time to waste focusing on it. The sustainability of the planet has been disrupted and we have to take unprecedented measures to survive. Prepare for an extended time of chaos.

You are filled with fear and that's the problem. Maybe fill yourself with that all powerful love you've been talking about.

We can stop him, but that won’t fix the root of the problem. After Biden, another Trump will come, and probably reloaded.
