There’s been a tireless effort here in leftist spaces discouraging voting for “genocide Joe” without actually providing alternatives.

I see you arguing against the alternatives that have bern provided to you. Bold face lies like this are just the name of the game for Biden supporters.

This is shamelessly false though? What are you smoking?

me, a disenfranchised Independent former Democrat who plans on voting for Jill Stein unless the DNC can produce a viable candidate

Heres someone offering two different alternatives to you. Tired of the disrespect, people are allowed to support better candidates, you can vote for better candidates, we decide who becomes president and youre so convinced that we dont that Trumps gonna take the spot

An alternative that relies on a majority of voters completely changing their voting strategies is not a workable alternative. Third party is a spoiler, always. A bit for Jill Stein only makes Trump more probable.

No see this is moved goalposts, you said people werent providing you any alternatives, now youre complaining about the alternatives they provided you. Both different party to vote for, and democrats offering a better candidate.

That's on me for assuming I didn't have to specify an alternative which isn't entirely counterproductive. Just like you generally don't hear people talking about coal-burning steam engines as an alternate energy source for cars. If your alternative causes more problems than it solves, it's not an alternative worth mentioning.
