OFC Tulsi endorsed Biden. Her entire candidacy was an attempt on his campaign, and its no surprise that her candidacy would attempt to hurt him with endorsement on the way out.

I liked her, though. She had an anti war policy, and I wished there was gonna be a Bernie/Tulsi ticket by the end.

Nope, she just really liked dictators. Figured that we should get cozy as fuck with them, lol.

She did speak against regime change wars, yeah. That's what really pulled me to her. Of course the US is allies with most of the world's dictators anyway. It's just that our government really hates Iran and Cuba. Among a few others. They're fickle about who they decide is a big threat to world stability.

Yeah, we should probably do something about that.
I doubt that her position on this or any other issue would have made her a suitable running mate...unless he was doing the democratic death spiral thing that's become so popular. Trying to get trumpits to vote for a dem by appealing to them with a trumpit left. Likes the war on adjectives, loves dictators. Somehow.... I don't think that she felt the bern.
-actually, considering it, I wish that any other non trump candidacy was as good at messaging and pr as hers was. The Terror Hawk that tried to nope out and join the trump cabinet ran as a democrat peace vote.

"Why do we always let the choice be between two evils!"|
Maybe because so many people are of the mindset that if we let the Greater Evil win then the lesser evil will learn its lesson and become good. But allowing the greater evil to win has ripple effects. The Greater Evil destroys education, it uses voter suppression. It knows it can't appeal to the masses. It doesn't need to. All it needs to do it make sure people don't vote, or if they do that they vote uninformed. Then it can keep winning, and keep gaining supporters. And the lesser evil doesn't learn its lesson. Mostly because it doesn't see itself as a 'lesser evil', just as the greater evil doesn't see itself as a greater evil.
The people of this mindset tend to be people who will relatively okay if the greater evil wins.

Then they're all just part of the greater evil, and we all may as well never vote, because they sure as hell don't care either way. Things will keep getting shittier and shittier until the country completely falls apart, and they'll be forced to change, because there won't be anything left.
I may still vote in the future, but it will be third party.
