That is how sad it is that these are the best two candidates, and people defend one or the other because the other choice is so lacking.
Well. To me that is just yet another symptom of a generally sick and decaying democracy. Nothing matters any more. President Trump, president Biden, whichever of the two influence spheres is left out this time gets his turn the next time, we can run every idiot and this logic does not change, and it doesn't change for Congress either. So why bother.
What I would say to you is that you'd have many allies on the left on that particular issue, these are two bad choices and lots of people say so, on this choice and the binary choices in general. If only folks would focus more on agreeing on this instead of being permanently antagonizing each other. But well, guess that's how the system works, keep them people pinned against each other, have them fight over transgender bathrooms and a million other insignificant things and keep your power - a guaranteed half of the share of it over a longer period of time.
And honestly, imho all your memes and whatnot are useful to cement this status quo.
