You're saying that there is no positive case for voting Dem? That the only reason to vote Blue is because they aren't Red? The best part of all of this is that I decided months ago to just vote blue team basically across the board regardless because it's necessary for the elimination of small problems. It also makes me complicit when an all blue majority decides to make another big fucking bad decision like the Glass-Steagall repeal.
Sure there are positive reasons to vote for Democrats. They don't generally want to put children in cages, prevent anyone who isn't old and white from voting, inject the bible into medicine and education, deregulate all the things even when it is obviously and stupidly self-destructive, ..., but you know all that. The Democrats are inadequate, and it is horrible that they're the best viable option. But they're the best viable option. See about helping out Mutual Aid Disaster Relief or something if you really want to try to change that. But also vote Capitalist Shill over Foaming At The Mouth Barbarian every two years too, because it's not like it's hard and more of the same really is better than outright malice.
