We're not endorsing Biden. And here’s why you’re under no obligation to vote for him either (A Thread). #WhyImNotVotingForJoe

Biden is better than Trump, but voting for Biden tells the Democratic Party that, as long as the GOP is more scary, candidates whose policies oppress millions by design are acceptable. It seriously undermines progressive power in the long run. #WhyImNotVotingForJoe
In primaries, Democratic leaders push the premise that centrists are most electable. This argument is predicated on the view that they are entitled to social justice advocates’ vote but must work for centrists’ votes. That is enabled by the “vote blue no matter who” mindset.
It is totally reasonable & legitimate to have serious concerns about the possibility of 4 more years of Trump. But we are told the GOP is too dangerous to do anything but suck it up & vote for Democrats every single election. You have little leverage if you accept this logic.
