    So your hope is that by threatening to not vote, you and likeminded voters will get Biden to change his positions sufficiently for you to vote for him before the election? That’s not what you said in your first comment, and you being only one person is equally applicable to this or to what I said.

    Why be mad at a social media account, when you’re apparently not mad at Biden?

    Who said I’m not pissed at Biden? But I’m not talking to Biden right now.

    All he has to do, is listen to his voters.

    If you are stating you won’t vote for him, you’re not his voter.

    If he can’t do that now, why does he deserve either of our votes?

    It doesn’t matter if he deserves it or not, unfortunately. I’ve already put forward my position that in FPTP, you effectively do not vote for someone, you vote against someone.

      Man…

      If the weather channel says a tornado is coming and to go to your basement, do you ask why they’re threatening you with a tornado?

        So this is an unstoppable mass movement with no actual intentions and you’re just being swept along?

          I mean yeah.

          Millions and millions of traditionally Dem voters aren’t going to vote for Biden due to his words and actions.

          You can’t convince them all to hold their nose, Biden isn’t even trying to, he’s just chasing donations from the wealthy even tho his ad spending with the money isn’t moving the needle.

          Trying to convince everyone to shut up and vote for Biden is the same as yelling at a hurricane

          But if you join the hurricane, it might be strong enough to move Biden far enough left he can squeak out a victory against the worst president in American history.
