    The answer is you vote or we lose democracy. That’s the simple end-all be-all answer here.

    Biden might not be what every single leftist wants, but I guaranfuckingtee that it won’t just be illegal aliens in his camps. It will be you as well.

    I personally don’t want to live in Gilead. I don’t want to fight in a civil war. I’d rather much prefer we vote in Biden, let the Silent/Boomers die off, so we can fix this shit.

      I can almost smell the Gen X coming off your grim resignation to boomer die off as a new beginning. We’ve waited impotently for so long.

        Hah, I’m actually a millennial, but it’s happening to the tune of 5,500 boomers a day. Even more for the silent gen.

      yeah but that just kicks the can down the road, not that I disagree or anything. I don’t know of any real solution.

      The United States is also a one-party state but, with typical American extravagance, they have two of them.

        Okay so what’s your option then?

        Because sitting out wont do anything, and acting like nothing is happening for people is also not doing any good.
