While rebutting another post here on Lemmy, I ran into this. This says exactly what I want to say.
I am not a friend of Biden’s Administration. I think they drug their feet over a variety of things ranging from holding Trump and his goons accountable for January 6th through rulemaking on issues like OTC Birth Control and abortion rights, and yes, I think he’s too quick to please big business. But then I remember what the alternative is, and … well, disappointed in Biden or not, I’m voting for him. Because my wife is a Black bisexual goth woman, four strikes under Team Pepe’s tent. And I have my own strikes for marrying her as a White dude, and respecting her right to not have kids since she doesn’t want them is another strike against me. And I care about my Non-Christian, Gay, Transgender, and Minority friends, and will never willingly subject them to Team Pepe.
Correct: The Liberal Track record around here is one so fucked that when most people here “Progressive Coalition”, they’re not thinking “Healthcare Reform and Stronger Labor Laws”, they’re thinking “We will now fine people for calling him Spider-Man instead of Spider-Person. Otherwise women and non-binary individuals will think they can’t be arachnid themed heroes!”
Because that’s what Liberals do; Blink and you miss it minor concessions to the poor mixed in with half-assed efforts to social justice that piss off everyone involved, because real change is too hard.
It’s still preferable to the Republicans who consider the UK as being “Far too supportive of trans people” (A country that recently made it so that you must be 25+ and neurotypical to transition) and believe the best solution to the housing crisis is “Literally hunting the homeless for sport.”
And it’s obvious that if anything is going to improve around here, the former is a better environment for it.
