Actually, it’s the other way around. Lots of recent brain dead conservative memes were saying that joe Biden’s a commie because the communist party endorsed him. So I had to point out that that’s fallacious thinking because you can’t say that trump’s a Nazi because David duke endorsed him.

No it’s not the same thing, little boy. Avakian’s endorsement was just the straw that finally broke the camel’s back. It happened after years of rising support for communist ideas with in the Democratic Party. Along with the candidacy of Bernie Sanders, and the elections of figures like Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez, Ilhan Omar, Rashida Tlaib and others.

Or, it's just that the communist party is voting for the lesser of two evils. Do you really think that the Communist Party aligns with neoliberal Biden? Laughable.

This is a REVOLUTIONARY Communist Party. They didn’t believe in voting until this. They called Bush a fascist too but never voted for his opponents. And Bush was much closer to fascism than Trump ever was. While I don’t agree with the GOP on everything, it is YOUR side that is the greatest evil.

If you actually read their statement, they're not voting because they like Biden and the democrats, but because they believe that Trump is so dangerous that he needs to be removed immediately.

This is an excerpt from their statement:

"And the Democratic Party has done this, time after time after time, while itself representing and seeking to preside over this system of capitalism-imperialism which has white supremacy, male supremacy, environmental plunder and wars for empire built into it, at the same time as the Democrats make noises about, and take some steps to implement, minor (and ultimately meaningless) reforms to supposedly address these outrages."

Notice how the communist party criticizes the dems for *not* being communist. If you read the statement in full, you can tell they they are EXTREMELY reluctant to vote for Biden but they need to out of absolute necessity, because in their view, Trump is an existential threat. They didn't decide to vote because Biden is a communist. That's stupid.

And BTW, it’s hard for me to take the RCP seriously when they called Busf a fascist too. If anybody was close to fascism it’s him, but they know Trump is no threat except to lunatics like them.

I read the statement, dumbass. He said that to not hurt Biden’s chances. He knew that his endorsement was going to irk some people, including undecided voters. He had to word it a certain way so not to hurt Biden’s chances.

This isn’t rocket science.

Of course, judging by your username you must still be in Kindergarten.

How does criticizing the democrats help Biden? I also don't get how what you just said has anything to do with Joe Biden being a communist, which he is evidently not.

Also, nice ad hominems.

Look, I don’t know what else to say to you? I can’t help it if you don’t get it. This argument is pointless.

I don't get it because your arguments don't make a modicum of sense.
