shaming people who will not turn out for biden for policy reasons by calling their objections a "temper tantrum" is a bad strategy to attempt to get them to vote for biden

this type of flexing for one& #39;s own base will not get biden additional voters https://twitter.com/Millennial_Dems/status/1249383032080957440">https://twitter.com/Millennia...

i& #39;m sure it& #39;s very /satisfying/ to do that if you& #39;re an "anything but trump" voter/org but don& #39;t kid yourself for one second that you& #39;re part of the solution by doing this shit

if you want biden to win sentiments like "we don& #39;t need you anyway!" aren& #39;t just misguided, they& #39;re actively damaging. you should be exerting pressure on biden and the establishment to adopt more progressive policy, pick a progressive VP, or put progressives in positions of power

if your goal is for biden to win in november spitting on voters that have made clear they will not vote for him as things stand is a mistake, plain and simple

and let me add a personal touch to this thread: i am rapidly losing respect for a lot of people on my timeline who claim their top priority is for trump to be defeated who display outright hostility to biden-skeptical voters instead of working on getting (some of) them on board

TL;DR: saying "fuck you" is not an effective coalition building effort
