    are u blind? the crumbs are here we have seen billions in public transport infrastructure and a few new amtrak services, like i said crumbs but if its that or literally nothing then u know soemthing is better than nothing, and i dont “play ball” because i dont vote because it involves doxing urself and i dont think its worth it. im just annoyed by the endless stream of post i have seen lately of people arguing that biden is literally the same as trump and therefore u should vote for trump for… resons??? or people willfully not understanding that less bad doesnt doesnt and has never meant good.

      and therefore u should vote for trump

      I don’t think anyone here has ever said that but i’m more than willing to be proven wrong. Can you give us a link to a post or comment where someone in this community has advocated voting for Trump?

      A lot of us just don’t agree with the assessment that Biden is “less bad” than Trump. For every “crumb” that you can cite Biden as having given you someone who wanted to do the same for Trump could find a “crumb” that in some way supposedly made him better than Biden. But in either case it is a fool’s errand because the overwhelming majority of what they do and stand for is bad. We simply refuse to be drawn into this trap of liberal electoral partisanship because it’s nothing more than a meaningless theatre. Whoever is president changes nothing about the permanent deep state apparatus and corporate-financial elite that is the real power and driver of US foreign and domestic policy. It is deeply un-materialist and un-marxist to obsess over which bourgeois figurehead is marginally “less bad”.

      This person is either a child or in some other way fundamentally misunderstands how the process of voting mechanically works in the United States.
