      I’ll vote for harm reduction if it comes down to it but if democrats want an endorsement they’ll have to do more than what they’re doing now.

      I’m not obligated to encourage anyone to vote for the lesser evil so long as the lesser evil still has an opportunity to be less evil.

          Wow. Literally saying the quiet part out loud - “Some random bullshit I just made up that hardly resembles what you said”

                  Oh, when there are only two possible choices

                  Actually in this context there’s at least 4:

                  • vote for a candidate AND endorse voting for the candidate
                  • don’t vote for a candidate AND don’t endorse voting for the candidate
                  • vote for a candidate AND don’t endorse voting for the candidate
                  • don’t vote for a candidate AND endorse voting for the candidate

                  Nobody has actually ‘voted’ for a candidate yet, all anyone has done thus far is endorse or not endorse voting for a candidate. Just as a reminder:

                  I’ll vote for harm reduction if it comes down to it

                    Only because of the electoral college you’re entirely wrong here.

                    There are only two choices.

                    1. Biden gets to 270 ec votes
                    2. He doesn’t and trump is appointed by Congress or gets to 270

                    There is no other option in the long run.

          Democrats have to be perfect. Republicans just have to be on the ballot.
