rant for reason

 so all you people who are SO upset over Joe Biden's sins (of which he has many, but then so do most) are going to keep Trump in power to destroy us all rather than voting him out for a President much more easily handled by public opinion and a better Congress (which we do need to vote in)

 

we don’t have to like Biden or trust him

we have to vote Trump out decisively, and then deal with Biden which we can do much more effectively than with Trump due to the GOP obstruction of justice

but most importantly we need to elect a Democratic Senate and end Moscow Mitch’s reign

 

 

so, you would have the Trump regime destroy all of us so you can feel right? How does that make you any better than the Republicans? The point is to get the mad man out and then use the solidarity and tactics learned fighting Trump to keep the new regime in line while we prepare for better future candidates.

 

 

don't see it as D v. R -- it's not about them: it's about us and what we would suffer from another round of Trump/McConnell -- vote them out, then deal with what's left

 

 

I can see a sadistic narcissist like Trump

as fitting the adjective "evil"

nonhyperbolically.

Biden is more of a normal flawed man

-- sometimes self-serving, sometimes caring,

perhaps with a mindset more in tune

with old style Republicans than modern

Progressives, but not evil.

 

 

US democracy sucks -- but just look at what we have to work with in regard to our electorate

it's not voting for the lesser evil when we have a plan and the ability to counter and ameliorate that evil, even throw it the hell out, once we have gotten rid of the evil worshiping current administration

Why waste our raging energy and time ranting against sensibility when we could be using those resources to make better plans for future governance, express and expand on them, and get more and more people involved in solution building instead of hateful blaming dualities.

 

 

no nuance -- all or nothing -- on or off -- is exactly what is wrong with our politics

if we can't take good ideas from bad people, or won't admit bad ideas came from good, we are making ourselves ever smaller, ever less able, ever slaves to our own ignorance
