    I’m not an American. I don’t live in the US.

    I can’t control who the DNC put forward as a candidate.

    All I can do is go on the internet and tell Americans “when the choice is The Fascist or The Other One”, don’t vote for the fascist. Don’t take votes away from the one who’s not a fascist that could win, either by voting third party or by not voting.

    Why do I care? Because the president of the US has a disproportionate amount of influence over the rest of the world. Leaving NATO, selling Ukraine down the river, appeasing Putin, none of this makes the rest of us safer.

    So go and vote.

      The election result is going to be decided in Pennsylvania, Wisconsin, Michigan, and Minnesota (assuming Biden doesn’t totally collapse). I live in none of those states. My vote counts as much as yours does, I just also have to pay taxes to these fuckers.
