re: #66 jaunte

I see a lot of people on Bluesky savaging Biden for his support of Israel, but what they seem most angry about are people reminding them that Trump would be worse.
They seem to be lobbying for a reality in which they can support the citizens of Gaza by criticizing Democrats and ignore the risk of another Republican victory here.

I wound up on a bunch of block lists when someone was whinging “DO SOMETHING!!!uno£!$!” with his “bully pulpit.” I responded exactly how the bully pulpit doesn’t work, getting a “well, why vote for him then?”

I stuck wondering if what they want is a left version of Trump, or this is rodent copulation trying to depress voter turnout.

Then there’s the Democratic Socialist types from very safe districts trying to promote other candidates, whilst Democratic Socialists here vote strategically. (Nebraska’s DSA is in an “all hands on deck” mode trying to prevent Trump, and oust Sens. Fischer and Ricketts. That doesn’t include supporting third-party candidates.)
