Damn, who let r/conservative in here?

All this is just 'it shoulda been Bernie' without even specifying a Bernie. It's letting perfect be the enemy of good, with the limpest hand-wave toward what would be better.

Meanwhile, the alternative to the lesser evil is outright fascism.

You should generally stop fascists from taking power.

If you want to do more than vote, go right the fuck ahead.

If you want to do less than vote, shut the fuck up.

This is literally the least you can do. It's not complicated. Choose less evil.

All the people in here complaining they don't like their choices. Holy fuck, those are the choices. You don't get to change them in under half a year from the election, lol. We've already had the primaries. We have two old candidates. One is old and has been running the country successfully for nearing 4 years. One is a convicted felon with convictions ranging from fraud to sexual assault. Both have age-related health issues, but only one is promising to try and bring about the end of democracy in this country via Project 2025 if elected.

If you want to change your choices next time, support some form of ranked voting in your state next time so that you can vote for the wild progressive candidate, but also rank the one you think is likely to win under that.
