Biden isn’t to the left of Trump, he’s continued all of Trump’s policies.
None of Biden, his cabinet, or the Democratic Party leadership care about any of the things on this checklist. The difference is that, in a completely unrelated sphere of media coverage and political pundits, far from the handles of power, there are people who cheer for good causes and the democrats, and there are people who cheer for fascism and the republicans. That can feel like a substantive difference if you get caught up in it, but it pops like a soap bubble if you look at what people passing laws actually do.
Voting third party increases the chances that a third party will be taken seriously enough to get a significant vote next election. It’s a shitty consolation prize. We have a shitty system.
Yours and other comments have helped me understand a bit better. It’s a shitty situation to be in and I’m glad my country has preferential voting. Hopefully third parties get enough votes to at least get some attention.
