Doesn't matter to Biden.
I do t even think a general strike would make him stop supporting genocide.
Hed watch America burn if it meant he got to watch Palestinians burn alive as well.
Biden doesn't represent Dem voters. And it's going to hurt him in November, maybe even so much that trump wins again.
Why can't we just stop running these shitty candidates who are a coin flip away from losing to the worst candidate to ever hold the office of president?
It seems like the entire world is caught in this trap. On one side you've got actual fascists, and on the other you have feckless liberals who can't seem to get it through their heads that this isn't the 90s anymore.
They're neoliberals, not liberals.
It's James Carville followers who want Reaganomics and Bill Clinton social stances.
Which is better than what republicans want, but in any sane political system, they'd be the right wing option in 2024.
Even if neoliberals got 100% of what they wanted, we'd still be fucked.
Which is why 1/3 of people don't vote, even when modern Dems hold the presidency, House, and Senate; it's still not enough to fix the majority of our issues.
DNC says no. We must be happy with the pseudo Republicans they put forward
