minus-squareKnock_Knock_Lemmy_In@lemmy.worldlinkfedilinkEnglisharrow-up3·1 year agoTrue. They could replace Biden with Clinton. The voters lack of control is the main reason we are in this mess. Only 14m people chose Biden in the primary.
minus-squareotp@sh.itjust.workslinkfedilinkEnglisharrow-up2·1 year agoI agree with you there. I’m also (obviously) against the genocide. I just think Trump would be worse in every way, including regarding the genocide (and other potential future genocides and/or wars).

There’s no guarantee that swapping candidates would get them more net votes. There’s a guarantee that Democrat or flip voters who abstain from voting for Biden are helping Trump win.

minus-squareotp@sh.itjust.workslinkfedilinkEnglisharrow-up2arrow-down1·1 year agoYes, if voters who vote Republican or flip between Republican/Democrat decide not to vote for Trump, then that would help Biden win.
minus-squareCptInsane0@lemmy.worldlinkfedilinkEnglisharrow-up1·1 year agoOk, but independents who don’t vote for either are not helping either.
minus-squareotp@sh.itjust.workslinkfedilinkEnglisharrow-up2·1 year agoOr are they helping both? Actually, I’ve read that voter apathy tends to help Right-wing parties. If that’s true and accurate, then independents who don’t vote for either would be helping Trump.
