1 reason I feel bad about not voting Clinton in swing state 2016(thread): Obama admnstrtn was woefully inadequate(presided over shale renaissance in era of climate crisis, NPR labeled him “deporter-in-chief, drone campaign, crackdown on whistle blowers,bailed Wall Street out) 1/
Obama did, however, enact JCPA which took sanctions of Iran. In return, Iran agreed no nukes... Trump, Bolton & other far right extremists win & immediately move to reinstate “maximum pressure” campaign on Iranians. They pull out of UN agreement & since Iranians have been ... 2/
Crippled by sanctions. Iranian populace is now facing Covid-19 on one hand & brutal sanctions from a superpower on the other. The risk of war is higher now, too. Not overly hopeful, but even if Biden were to reinstate JCPA & take sanctions off Iran, that would be positive step 3/
Just trying to push back respectfully against the notion that Trump & Biden are equal. Biden is senile, and depraved woman abuser. His policies are inadequate (Obama 2.0)... however he is far cry from total destruction which is Trump and far right extremists. /4
This is just one way to look at it. Other views are important too. What should take precedent over lesser-evil voting war between leftists is organizing and breaking through systems of hierarchy & oppression. We have to find constructive strategies to revolt. Time is ticking /end
I lied! One more thought. This thread is not meant to guilt trip other ppl into doing this or that. I am merely expressing my own feelings as I reflect on 2016 and look forward to this November
