What in the world makes you think they had anything to do with the missing girl?

Are we done turning the other cheek yet? Cause this some bullshit...

Yeah... She said she understood how one could be made to feel like voting is pointless, not that she didn’t vote.

There are Democrats in a lot of states who haven’t voted yet too. But we’re not being counted and people whose votes won’t count in the general are getting more of a say then those who are actually going to vote blue in the general are being excluded. That’s a fucking problem.

Fuck him and fuck you too for this bullshit. You only give a damn about my vote when you can manipulate it but not enough to give a damn if I get to cast one in the primary right?

Again, why the fuck do we let places like Mississippi, North Carolina, Alabama, and other states that will not vote Blue in November choose our candidate again?

I mean I’ll still vote! Just not for Biden. As a socialist, I’ll vote for one of the actual socialists on the ballot, either Howie Hawkins or Gloria La Riva. I vote downballot too, particularly for local candidates, but I also think it’s long past time we in the US uncouple the concept of political power from/stop…

Biden already helped put a frothing conservative zealot on the Supreme Court.

Bernie’s not “my candidate.” I support him because there’s a mass of potentially persuadable people in his movement — the first class-based mass movement we’ve seen in the US in ages — and I think he’s more open to actual pressure from the left than someone like Trump or Biden, but if he were to get elected, the…

The Paris Agreement is barely a band-aid on a sucking chest wound, the judiciary is a joke considering Biden’s history of enabling right-wing judges from Thomas on, his healthcare plan leaves more than 10 million people uninsured by his own estimates, “free college” is most certainly not going to coming out of his…

He’s not “the same” as Trump, but nothing he’s done leads to any reasonable belief he’d counteract him, because he’s done every single thing you say he wouldn’t. Biden is one of the major reasons Clarence Thomas sits on the Supreme Court, was the number two man in the administration that deported more people than any…

Trump is a piece of shit and his administration is a real mask off moment exposing the cruelty and exploitation at the heart of the US, but if you can square the shift from “Big Structural Change” to “Nothing will fundamentally change” and convince yourself that the mass-incarcerating deportation-happy finance…

I guess I don’t see how a Biden vote actually pushes things leftwards in any way. A Biden vote doesn’t fight capitalism or corporatism, doesn’t fight imperialism, doesn’t move us forward on fighting climate change, doesn’t fight structural oppressions in this country or around the world. The man has barely made a…

Thank you for this. I’m tired of being erased. That’s what it feels like every time some one (usually white) pushes the Bernie Bro narrative bc I guess us black and brown Sanders supporters don't matter.

Great article, Ashley. I’m sorry for the obtuse responses in the comments.

I just came here to see how many people would "well, actually..." and prove your entire point for you

Good piece. It’s a particularly sinister narrative that the candidate with the most diverse base of support is framed as a stand-in for the white male vote, but that’s the way this was always going to go.

I’ve gone through the reasons why I don’t find a vote for Biden to be wise, pragmatic, or even palatable.

You can write these stories all day long; you’re still wrong and so are they.

I’ll be first to tell you as a Bernie supporter that I’m perfectly fine with a Warren presidency and will vote for her without much reservation BUT regarding that 4th point I highly suggest you read Native American activist Rebecca Nagle’s articles and threads on the “kerfuffle” Warren caused with her ancestry test. I…
