how fucked is it to yell "VOTE" at 2.3 million people in prison, 500,000 people in immigrant detention, 11 million undocumented people living in fear, at the top of my lungs on behalf of a presidental candidate who repeatedly and personally built those systems of violence?
how fucked is it to weaponize the identities of the marginalized to support a man that has built his career on hurting us?
how fucked is it to reduce the political imagination of a public in open rebellion against the police for half a year, in greater levels than any time in this countries history, to "VOTE FOR THE LESSER EVIL"?
how fucked is it that the majority of those championing this decadent and self serving finger wagging will retreat to their champagne glasses while the rest of us are shot by war crime gas directly confronting the perpetrators of state violence?
how many pearl clutching liberals will return to their lives of apathetic disengagement, like they have promised us they will, if biden wins?
trump is undoubtedly a fascist. trump must be resisted. if we are to get anywhere we must build up our strength to tear the system down. biden is a chief architect for the structural fascism that those millions of people left out of the system are subject to. he is not an ally
it will not be easier or simpler to fight under biden. like it has not been simpler or easier for the millions of people who are victims of border and prison violence because of biden.
other than the crime bill, biden voted to keep immigrants out with aids, deny immigrants public benefits, to fund immigrant detention and border enforcement, and to build a wall, 3 times.
he voted to keep protestors from discharging bail debt through bankruptcy, oh and authored two little bills called the omnibus crime bill and the juvenile crime bill, which led to mass incarceration.
joe biden is responsible for millions of people not being able to vote in this country, and he will continue to prop up systems of violence to reinforce the system of racial hierarchy in the US. trump fucking sucks. trump is a fascist, but the US itself as a government is too
as this article highlights, its not a question that trump is a fascist. it is not a question that trump has naked authoritarian ambitions. it is also not a question that the "united states" is also foundationally a fascist state https://www.google.com/amp/s/warriorpublications.wordpress.com/2017/06/20/fascism-anti-fascism-a-decolonial-perspective/amp/
has bidens record ever shown him to be anti authoritarian, anti racist, or anti-militarist? no. in fact biden was also chiefly responsible for perpetrating the narratives of "welfare queens" during the PROWRA welfare reform bills.
by all indications joe biden, if not outwardly an ideological adherent of Fascism, is an agent of it. ultimately angling to become the leader of a racist authoritarian and militarized state and has voted like this for his entire life.
