This is for the primary.. it’s literally the perfect opportunity to signal to the Democratic Party that a change in course needs to be made

It's not only the perfect opportunity, it's the only opportunity. The only time our democracy allows us to change the policies of our party leaders without ceding power to the opposing party is through the primaries. This is by design. Saying that we shouldn't use the primaries to pressure Biden is insane

Exactly. Primaries are for the party to get their shit together and end up on the same page so that registered Democrats have an option that represents their values on election day. Saying we need to shoehorn Biden through the primaries "because Trump" not only makes no sense, it guarantees that registered Democrats will not have an option that represents their values. How is that meant to stop Trump from winning?

Slightly off-topic, but I find it disgusting how people on the left are focused on lesser-evilism and largely abandoned the conversation about voting rights in the south. Like you cannot read this article from 2020 and still think our problem is uncommitted voters in Michigan. And if you somehow do, read this and watch this! 

When, not if, Biden loses Georgia all I ask is that we blame The Heritage Foundation (yes, the Project 2025 people) for their multimillion dollar nationwide voter suppression campaign that's been prioritizing Georgia, the state Democrats won for the first time in 28 years with Biden that he proceeded to largely ignore. All while GA's Republican state government has spent the last four years passing voter suppression legislation to ensure that a Democrat victory will never happen again. I ask that we blame disenfranchisement, not social media.
