    For a leftist, neither candidate changes that reality. It will simply be more comfortable under one than the other.

    I mean, I’m perfectly aware Biden isn’t going to institute an American Meidner plan or start nationalizing key infrastructure and industries tomorrow and would probably vehemently oppose anyone trying to do so.

    But if all I have to do is show up one day this year, and try and get my friends to do the same, just to not be possibly persecuted for any LGBT or socialist affiliations, that feels like not that big of a hassle for the gain of atleast keeping the status quo.

    Every other volunteering and organizing day of the year is still going to be towards something not directly related to electoral politics.
