Voting Democrat hurts any leftist credibilty and promotes complacency.

It will only shift the system further right. Then Right wingers will complain about whichever incompetent Democrat is in charge at the time is actually responsible and we need an incompetent Republican instead.

The longer you vote for people like Biden, the more people will believe in Trump or an even worse Fascist that will rise up.

this is certainly a take. you honestly think putting republicans in office will show "the people" how bad they are?

I literally don't think any candidate can be worse than trump. antivaxxers (who are majority repub) died in droves during the pandemic and he won lowa by a landslide.

trump is literally as incompetent as they come. but republicans are incredibly loyal and I don't believe anything short of the president commiting mass murder will change their minds.

now is not really the time for big brain takes, just vote Biden and get smashed afterwards if you want.

Voting for Biden makes you complicit in Genocide. You will become a Nazi in act by voting for Biden (or Trump). That will be the defining moment that you lose all innocence.

not voting doesn't mean your hands are clean. if the goal is world peace, your choice is Biden, not voting, trump.

Are you claiming Bin Laden was right?
