Looking forward to being considered a spoilsport by everyone I know for pointing out the flaws in the Biden-Harris ticket. Yes, I know they are better than Trump. No, I don't believe that they will enact any real progressive change. Yes, I think they will continue to push American towards austerity and (eventual) fascism. People think things will go back to normal, and they may be quieter for a few years, but we are on the same path of decline we have been since the 80s.

Another poster here mentioned the brunching crowd. There is going to be a lot of pressure from and among that crowd to pretend everything is fine. Sometimes deliberately burying my head in the sand with the rest of them seems like the obvious choice, but the goals and dreams of that crowd, which always to me seem shallow and alienating, now see fundamentally pointless and self destructive as well.

I still can't believe they picked the cop. Usually the DNC is a little more discreet in telling the plebs to go fuck themselves. They learned something from Trump.
