Come on guys, it's pretty unfair comparing Biden to Hitler. It isn't like Joe gave a firey speech surrounded by soldiers against a blood red backdrop about how we must use state violence against his political enemies.

I do think that people don't realize that even in a system with a limited number of viable parties, there's tactics that have an outsized impact.

If you're not happy with either party, don't vote for either party. "But you're wasting your vote!" No, you're putting your vote out there and both parties are looking at that "2% libertarian party" or "2% green party" going "goddamnit, that's 2% I could've gotten. How could I get those?"

In the last Canadian election, the conservative party was so incredibly disappointing that Justin Trudeau won another minority. The conservatives would have kept on course, but I suspect that the PPC getting more of the popular vote than the green party followed by the trucker protests being wildly popular with a small but substantial minority are the reason why there's a new leader who has a chance of winning the next election and potentially actually making some substantial changes rather than just being the NDP but slower.

I do need to mention I may end up totally eating my words on this, predictions are hard and no predictions are harder than predicting the future.
