if u carefully read my comment u will notice that i only used the word “good” to say something was not good, because it isnt good, non of it is and thats not what was asked the question was how is voting for democrats any better, yes its not good enough that much is self evident, i never said it was, that was never the claim i said it was better. there are 2 options at the federal level neither is good and again i didnt say either was but if u are going to bother to vote one is better.
ur response doesnt even engage with what i said at all, pointing out that the measures are half ass doesnt in any way contradict that they are better than the alternative of literally nothing, pointing out that biden is bad does not exclude the possibility that he is better. it is just mind boggling to me that some people can not understand the meaning of better and lesser it is just so bizarre.
It’s not that we can’t; it’s that we reject this relativist metric in favor of something absolute and quantifiable. Fact: Biden is no better materially for the people or the country. No change he’s put forward in his 3 and a half years of administration has resulted in ANY kind of MATERIAL improvement to the average Amerikan’s living conditions-- and in a lot of places, they’re worse!
After all, he’s responsible for the RICO charging of 61 Black Cop City protestors, he added to Trump’s wall, he’s still running the ‘detention’(read: concentration) camps at the southern border, Roe v Wade went away under his watch, several states have implemented even more draconian anti-abortion and anti-LGBTQ+ legislation under his watch; it goes on and on and on enough that we reject lesser/better comparison where he’s concerned.
He doesn’t deserve the puffery of relativist measurement.
