Biden is the best the system can do. Because it's a shitty system. In a just world we'd have had President Nader, then President Sanders, and then President West.
But we exist in post-modern technocratic capitalist society governed by a system that's older than the telegraph and was the best thing we could think of to replace the Divine Right of Kings and hasn't been dramatically updated since we gave women the vote and decided to not be overtly hostile to minorities.
It's a shitty, broken, fucked up system that won't give you what you want, but you can at least steer it towards a smaller cluster of orphans by voting for Biden.
And then learn to grow food and can because it's a long, long way down.
The results from PA’s midterm election will be more interesting. There’s a bunch of loonies trying to get on school boards and an anti-choicer running for state Supreme Court, so Dems may overperform.
