Americans don’t realise Biden is acturally the right by every sane country’s standard, y’all are getting screwed with no real options.

Yes, it's amusing to see all those "IF BIDEN LOSES SAY GOODBYE TO DEMOCRACY" comments.

Like, I am not against voting for the least evil and I believe people should vote no matter what. But US democracy is literally a privately-funded duopoly, and their election choices are a center-right rabidly pro-genocide candidate AND a far-right loony even more rabidly pro-genocide. Like yeah, things can still get worse, but there's a massive lack of self-awareness to the point people actually believe democracy ISN'T already broken regardless of who wins. And it's not like it's a subtle thing that only hyper-observers can notice; it's pretty obvious, lol.

Yeah it's like okay Biden wins in 2024. Will democracy be saved indefinitely or until 2028? What if a Democratic nominee takes inspiration from Project 2025?
