Gawd. Do we have to get one of these braindead posts every damn day? You think it's convincing anyone?

Biden's concerns aren't people choosing Trump. Those voters are fixed and committed. Biden has to worry about Democratic voters getting so frustrated with the system that they check out. These posts are practically (if not actually) designed to do exactly that.

Democrats listen up! Bitching at voters is not an effective campaign strategy! Learn something from Hillary or suffer the same fate!

It's in hopes that those idiots realize that their failure to vote in this election of all elections makes them complicit. Just because you don't participate in something that you could have helped stop doesn't make you innocent.

They're going to pay the price just as much as everyone else if Trump is reelected and if they think at all that any of the things they're mad at Biden for won't be done 10 fold by Trump, they're dumber than I already know they are.

There has been no election in the last 50+ years where progressives didn't show up en masse for the Democratic candidate. It never happened. As a reward we get this crap every single election cycle.

The voters who don't vote for the Democrats are voters who have checked out of the process and aren't reading this crap from establishment cucks. You aren't going to reach them with a million stupid political memes.

Aside from a few loudmouths, progressive loyalty to the Democrats has never been at issue. By continuously harping on it like it actually is an issue, you are going to make it one. You are telling progressives that their votes are needed but their input is not. Eventually there actually will be a mass betrayal of the Democrats, and the Democrats will have earned it.

Those voters are also maybe voting for the first possibly second time so that whole being jaded shit is a poor argument. Hope they enjoy their consequences. The rest of us won't.
