    It’s the Schrodingers democracy of the shrodingers “free” world we live in — Politics is pay to play, corporations are people and both can donate unlimited money, wealth equality is worse than the guilded age, but we totally have “democracy” bro. Also you should shut up and support a genocide because we’re fighting to prevent the fascists from taking power, which will surely lead to genocide… Only worse!

    This is the kind of discourse you get with a 2 party system ruled by a corporatocracy masquarading as a democracy — the propagandized neoliberal drones are most of the comments you read. Ultimately vote for Biden, because the alternative is literal Christian fascist dictatorship, but give Biden and neoliberals hell; make them believe they’re gonna lose all the way to voting day.

      I agree with this, but people really need to stop qualifying every critique with their intent to vote for him anyway. Biden has already been saying he doesn’t believe his polling numbers are real (why liberals aren’t panicking about that indifference is beyond me), we really can’t be sending mixed signals here.

      He risks losing if he doesn’t change course, full stop. He needs to know that risk is real.
