      A vote saying they won’t support the Dem ticket in November without a big change still means something, even if the race has already been called.

      Everyone already knew Biden would win handily since the first primary. That’s why they voted uncommitted instead of for an alternative.

      You’re just repeating over and over that you don’t understand what a primary is

          If no one cares, there’s no reason for you to be so upset.

          You’re not upset about uncommitted votes in the primary; you’re upset that voters are rejecting unconditional support for Netanyahu’s genocide.

      This is how Trump won in 2016. I know you can’t help yourself but if you really care about the outcome of this election, keep it zipped.

          Yeah, you need a calculator (Can they count?).

          But I wasn’t talking about third party candidates. I was talking about liberal conspiracism: dismissing all criticism as bad faith attacks from secret Republicans because you couldn’t possibly be wrong about anything.

          Stop sneering at the voters you desperately need to hold their nose and vote for Biden.

            Some people would rather sneer and lose and have someone to blame than treat anyone to the left of Manchin as a person with agency.

          Since they don’t matter, how they vote in the primaries doesn’t matter either.

          You just want to silence opposition to Netanyahu’s genocide.

              I don’t understand why Biden needs to continue supporting genocide and why saying anything about it makes me a Republican.

              If you can dismiss anyone who objects to Netanyahu’s genocide as a Republican, you don’t have to justify supporting genocide. Which is about the only way you can proceed, as supporting genocide is not justifiable.
