The thing that gets me about people complaining about “vote-shaming” and about needing to be convinced to vote, both in general and specifically for Biden, is that so many of those people are committed to not accepting arguments in favor. You can point out Biden and his administration passing more LGBTQ protections, or the Inflation Reduction Act, or numerous other actions, and it’s never enough - nothing outweighs the negatives, in their minds.
And then when you point out the consequences and results of *not* voting for Democrats and Biden, it’s also not enough and you’re now shaming or pressuring people and not presenting a positive argument. It’s so convenient.
The reason republicans keep winning elections is cuz the right doesn’t need to be convinced to vote like this
The amount of single issue republican voters is bonkers. Abortion alone. Republicans didn’t vote for candidates expecting them to wave their own and make abortion illegal on day one. They turned out and voted for forty years to get conservative judges appointed to overturn Roe and it fucking worked.
Meanwhile you try to explain to leftists that Biden can’t just wave his pen and do everything and they get pissed and say he hasn’t done enough and ignore all the good he’s done and then they threaten to stay home
