    The only difference I’ve noticed is the lack of daily headlines regarding some new ‘gaffe’ committed by the president.

    This vague list of action might as well be meaningless as it is little more than half measures and virtue signaling. Healthcare is still as expensive as it ever was, college is still as expensive as it ever was, marijuana is already legal in 1/2 the country and medically legal in 4/5th of the country, climate change is still rapidly getting worse, homelessness is increasing, housing prices are increasing, wages are still suppressed, unions are still suppressed, women, minorities, and LGBT people now have fewer rights.

    Biden is only the best option we’ve got if you limit your support to one of two individuals out of 330 million citizens.

    Lack of votes is the only way to pressure someone. How would anyone feel pressured to do anything after they’ve already received your vote? It’s not like you can take it back after the fact. This is precisely why neither of these two parties has to do anything beneficial in order to win elections. They deceive you into trapping yourself in a box where only two candidates exist while banking on the fact that you’d never vote for the other one.

    If you want change, you actually have to change your actions. It’s not going to happen by doing the same thing you’ve always done.
