I pretty much agree with what you're saying. I would caution people though to not mix up "i'm not voting for joe biden" with "i'm not voting at all". There is a Green party. There are independents. There are congressional races to vote in.

A lot of people here want to vent their valid frustrations against the biden administration, democrats and the DNC, etc. It doesn't always mean that they won't vote, or even that they still won't hold their nose and vote biden.

I would say though, that anyone not voting because they are fed up with both Republicans and Democrats, I hope you have a plan of action to help create change and make things better. Hell, I hope we all get an action plan together, because no matter how this election goes, we are going to need drastic change in this country in order to survive.

Please don't! Look up what happened in 2000, setting the stage for unprecedented misery under the Bush and Cheney years. All because some people thought Gore wasn't their ideal candidate.
