      People keep saying this, but I think you’re all impossible to please. There are three general positions he could take

      • Endorse Biden
      • Don’t endorse anybody (The Rock’s current position)
      • Endorse Trump (Rob Schneider is here)

      Somehow, for so many armchair political scientists on Lemmy, the 2nd and 3rd positions are indistinguishable from each other. And then the 1st position is an endorsement of genocide Joe. Democracy matters and genocide is bad therefore Biden is a bad candidate. And if you’re not for Biden, then you’re for Trump. But if you’re not explicitly for Biden, then you’re for also Trump. But if really cared about democracy and civility then must be for Biden, and openly, because Trump is just worse. But fuck Biden because genocide is bad.

      This is nonsensical and impossible. What the hell is an acceptable stance on these issues?

      Actually, I couldn’t care less. Go square that circle with someone else. The Rock is as right as he’s going to be by not explicitly supporting Biden or Trump because he doesn’t want to cause division.

        I did not equate endorsing nobody to endorsing Trump, so you can fuck off with that in a reply to me.
