  • Yup. But in the choice of who to vote for president, there's the establishment candidate, or the "dictator for a day" candidate. Or there's not voting, which is saying "yes, either of those are okay". One of those things has the chance of making progress, and it should be obvious.

  • They know they're not going to lose on this issue, though, because anyone who seriously evaluates the election has come to the same conclusion that I already said: a Trump victory is the worst outcome. Again, you'll have to put pressure on the party through other means, just one of which is electing more leftist downballot candidates.

  • Not voting is a valid choice, one that says you're okay with either candidate winning. And that is being complicit with genocide. If you're not okay with that, vote.

    If you don't want to wait a year, you can call, write, protest, and donate to groups to do those things on your behalf. But to throw away your vote is incredibly short-sighted.

  • You don't need to exert pressure on Biden. You need to help push the entire system back to the left. When Democrats in general are in government, it allows more room for further left candidates. Just like how electing Republicans made room for the Tea Party and the MAGA crazies. If the window had been more toward the left, they'd have been outside the Republican party.
