    Because “uncommitted” tends to mean “I’m displeased with Biden but begrudgingly admit that there is no other viable candidate that has as good a known chance of beating Trump”

      Which in fairness is exactly how I feel, although I think that could’ve been averted had Biden and the DNC made championing young left wing voices over the past 4 years so alternatives did exist. But that time has passed so we get this choice

      I’m just saying it’s chance for you to support an alternate candidate. Of course they will not be in this year’s ballot, but the party needs upcoming people to be spotlighted and the primary is a good place to do that. Just because the party leadership is flubbing this chance doesn’t mean you have to go along. “Uncommitted” is better than “Biden because he’s already the winner” but it still plays into the party blindness to alternatives.
