Hey dude. I can see you're really passionate about this, you're not a propagandist or an agitator. You have your ideals and are sticking to them. I can respect that.

But you just wrote a long, detailed, passionate defense of being stupid.

I can tell you're better than this. You're obviously not stupid. I insult and jeer at a lot of people on lemmy because they're fucking idiots, but you are obviously not one. You can be better than this. You don't have to restrict yourself to voting based on vibes or Tiktok memes. I believe you have the mental capacity to actually do a few google searched (in incognito mode to trick the algorithm) and see what Biden is doing and has done. I believe you have the mental capacity to ignore the propaganda about "senility" or whatever else, if you choose to. Or the idea that Biden for some reason decides to not listen to his constituents.

At the very least, I think you have the capacity to recognize that a lot of the anti Biden people are at best EXTREMELY politically uninformed and wonder if it's a good idea to take cues from them.

You didn’t read a single thing in the comment, did you? Or are you just trying to be a troll?

I see people are passionate about Biden, but their methods are doing more harm than good. You’ve not persuaded me in any way to vote for Biden.

Or the idea that Biden for some reason decides to not listen to his constituents.
