    So why don’t people say that instead of such extremist language like “no matter what”?

    Words matter. Blindly supporting or pretending you will blindly support a shit party because the other is worse is in no way shape or form a good thing.

        Well because this community is pretty overwhelmingly blue maga I’m not really surprised.

        Lots of people have issues with it, you just constantly ignore the voices and wonder “Why is Biden struggling to get voters?”

      I interpreted what they said as “in this election”.

      And even then, I also knew (from context) that they wouldn’t continue to vote Democrat if the party changed so drastically.

      Words matter, but so do context and inferences/implications
