    Not chocking Biden up as the best pro-Union president but are you dense here, he has actually done quite a lot to reverse the trend & a big supporter. You’d have to ignore the last 50 years to think he is bad for unions.

    All I can glean from this is you have a strong distaste for democracy? Its the best system we have and not sure you even have a grasp on how it works or can even promote a viable alternative. The bigger risk is folks that want to burn the system down & can’t even articulate what they want let alone discuss how it would be better.

      Yes I hate democracy, that’s why I have voted in every local, state, and national election since I turned 18.

      It is why I contact my Senators and representatives and the White House.

      Did you know their phones are only open from Tuesday to Thursday for, I believe, four hours a day?

      Actions over words, friend, and his actions aren’t matching his words.

      Run somebody knew we still have time to primary.

      If you don’t, you won’t have my opposition, I’m not that stupid. You just won’t have my support.

        Yes, I am aware of the awful policy of Travel days of Monday & Friday and dislike it. I could see some Mondays but Friday is annoying. Former speaker Pelosi brought it back and something I’ve disliked for quite some time. I’m sympathetic to Western states but allowing some limited tolerance of proxy votes easily addresses that.

        His actions have been pretty great but hey if you want to bury your head fine, enjoy yourself.

        Your participation in elections are great but if you are such a super voter then get more involved in your local party & encourage others. Nothing President Biden has done has ever been in violation of our national party platform & I probably same for many state democratic parties. I’m cool with some aspects of third parties if the Democrat Party structure and/or platform is unpalatable to you.

        Nobody is worried about your opposition its just juvenile if its just a no vote on the president. Also, the critique about “systems” seems very horseshoe-y .

        Vote how you want lemmy cuz and glad you do so. Have a great one and we can continue this on other subjects.
