    Primary vote is when you vote your conscience, general is when you hold your nose and do what needs to be done.

    This is a good time to make your voice heard and pressure the current administration.

      Yep. Now is the time to express your choice to change local politics and influence those who vote on the national platform.

      Or here me out, if the current president is aiding in one genocide, prevening another war from ending, and has done absolutly nothing to better my material conditions or the material conditions of my fellows in the working class, and contenues the genocide in cuba. Every campain promise has been broken, they just do not get my vote at all. Like in what world would you say that he earned your vote to give him a second term

        There’s no point on Biden’s planks where his policies align with my views. Why would I vote for someone who 0% represents me?

        The world where America has a two party system and the other candidate is openly fascist and awful?

        Also… “Every campaign promise broken” is such hyperbole that I have to think that you’re either a troll or just ignorant. Whenever people say stuff like this they never provide examples or they conveniently ignore all the places where a campaign promise WAS kept, or is in the works.

        Until we can reform our voting system to something like ranked choice, approval voting, or STAR, we have a two party system with one party generally maintaining the status quo with some nice social progress and the other party actively trying to make people’s lives worse. That second party loves this shit and maybe you should consider why so many of their efforts are about trying to convince people not to vote.
