One of my Facebook friends recently told me on my Facebook wall that I’m “taking the coward’s way out” by not voting for Biden.
I’d say the opposite is clearly the case.
I know before I question Biden’s awful record in social conversations with others that I will inevitably be victimized by anger and insults directed at me by friends when I (rightly) criticize Biden. I have been verbally abused by countless friends on the left each time I critique Biden. It seems obvious to me, given the abuse I know I will get, that a “coward” would never do what I’m doing (taking Biden’s record to task). In fact, the spineless, cowardly thing to do in this instance is to join the Democratic Party choir and pathetically sing the praises of Biden, even when you know Biden is disgusting and incompetent. Doing that is certain to allow you to enjoy being seen as virtuous and enlightened by all your Dem friends who are part of your cult. Your tribe.
I’ve had some friends who agree with me on this, and admire me for the courage to say what I say about Biden. Those friends have told me they don’t have the intestinal fortitude to do what I’m doing.
I assure these friends that it is not easy to do things that you know will lose you friends.
But because our future is so important to me, I continue to agree with John Lennon, who once said that being honest may not get you a lot of friends but it’ll always get you the right ones.
Biden is FAR worse than Trump, as my blog on that topic clearly shows. It shocks me that people have such blind hatred for Trump that they are willing to vote for a demented, sexually abusing, warmongering, lying, corrupt Republican (Biden). I never thought I’d see the day when millions of otherwise intelligent Dem voters will do that.
As Henry Ford would say, you can vote for any candidate you want in November, as long as he is a Republican.
