      Why more subtle? I already told you multiple times I’ll be posting election news articles through the general. Why are you surprised?

          I’ve explained it many times already. The anti Trump articles are posted almost immediately here so I don’t post them. They already have anti Trump articles covered.

              You’d rather stay ignorant in your Biden bubble and not know that he’s doing really bad across most demographics? Or would you rather be informed and push Biden to fight harder?

                Absolutely this is the case. A lot of democrats are going to think that they’ve got this in the bag because “Trump is worse!” They’re want to live in echo chambers and think that Biden is doing great because the other option is too scary for them to admit to themselves. And anyone that prods that cognitive dissonance will be yelled at and shouted down with cries of “Russian bot” and “You’re helping the fascists”.

                Meanwhile, Trump republicans and “normal” republicans (is there such a thing now?) are all rallying behind their God King, and everyone “in the middle” (i.e. uninformed people that don’t keep up with the news, and what they do know is surface level at best) just sees a doddering old grandpa vs a charismatic flimflam salesman.

                I want to enthusiastically support Biden. It would be great if he were earning my support. But his behavior and campaigning are forcing me to merely reluctantly hold my nose to vote for him.
