    Again, your narrative is dependent on this false premise you’ve set up that Biden “has” to be the nominee.

      I’d love to know what we citizens can do to convince the DNC to stop nominating these out-of-touch antiques for candidates?

      I’m serious. Because until we get the DNC to change their behavior, this same shit is going to continue to happen.

      There’s a reason why the likes of Bernie Sanders and AOC don’t get nominated. It’s because they won’t toe the line of what the DNC wants.

      And voting third party does no good. It’s a losing choice that only helps the republicans; because any vote that is not for the D is a vote for an R.

      Third parties do not get fair treatment during elections, so they do not get the same exposure. And everyone knows it’s all about the exposure you get. Mostly through adverts, mailers, phone calls, etc… But also TV airtime, news articles, debates, and so on.

      Yeah it’s unfair and it’s bullshit and woulda shoulda coulda. Make all the excuses you want; shit ain’t changing until this duopoly is changed. And right now, they’ve got their heads so far up their asses that they can lick their own uvulas.

      So how do we change that? Seriously. Legitimately. Realistically.

      Because not voting for Biden is the same as voting for Trump, and goddamnit we cannot survive another term with that poor excuse for a human being.

      As of today those are the options. If it changes then great. But whining on lemmy and calling it a “critique” isn’t going to make that happen.
