A group of Muslim leaders in swing states are rightly using their electoral power with the #AbandonBiden campaign. They are not so frightened of a Trump presidency that they have allowed themselves to vote for the man who through his proxy Israel has killed some 24,000 people in Gaza and despite phony claims of “working behind the scenes” shows no inclination to change policy and save lives.
Idiots. Idealism is fine when it doesn’t endanger any and all future chances of actual progress. “Not being worried” about Trump makes clear that these people are whiny babies who can’t possibly come up with a real solution or demand.

Run the candidate, then you can say these things without merely bloviating. I don’t see anyone running against Biden who isn’t a complete looney tune with zero chance of defeating the very real threat of fascism that again darkens our doorstep. I know it feels good to post the wall of text about how we need an alternative, but absent an alternative, complaining and refusing to participate helps nobody but the fascists.

Again, all I hear is bitching. Do something about it, or stfu. You’re not helping.

Refuse to listen to what? What if I agree with what you say? You saying it changes nothing. It is a stupid, strategic misstep where we all lose because all it succeeds in doing is to get people to stay home.

Because not presenting a unified front is how you actually lose. Feeding into the apathy that (if you are to be believed) already exists, is going to help guarantee the worst possible outcome, not instantly transform the political landscape shitshow into your utopia. It’s going to be February of the election year and nobody else has emerged, neither DNC nor third party. What the hell are you or anyone else going to do about this that won’t simply throw the match and let the fascists win?
Trump has been a friend to Saudi Arabia, selling them tons of weapons to fight against Yemen and protect themselves from Iran.
Biden has paused sales to Saudi Arabia, and instead had the US attack Yemen directly.
I’m not surprised that both pro-SA and pro-Yemen/Iran Arab-American voters would be against Biden; from that point of view, Trump selling weapons to Saudi Arabia and having them kill each other, was a smarter, albeit more cruel, move.
