There are reasonable arguments in favor of voting for Howie Hawkins over Biden. Reminding us that the same thing that is being said about Trump was said about every Republican of the last 25 years is not one such argument. Trump really is qualitatively different from every Republican president before him. His reelection would mgive a significant boost to outright fascist forces - something that could not have been said about Reagan, Bush, etc. Well, it was said, but it was not correct. Nor do I see the comparison with the SPD having told its members to vote for Hindenberg as being valid. At that time, the German working class had two mass working class parties. The US has none and I don't think the Greens will ever develop into one either.
That is why I had been seriously considering voting for Biden. Now, though, I'm watching the convention and feeling totally disgusted. I find the prospect of Biden being elected to be depressing, the prospect of Trump being reelected is genuinely frightening.
