The best way to do that is to demand that they vote for Biden. Rub their noses in the Biden stink and demand their fealty to the DNC and that sick old bastard. Be a condescending asshole about it. I've been doing that all day and the responses have been great. They already don't want to vote for him, so being goaded and berated to do it just makes them resist it even more. Try it. It works.

Tell em Biden's going to pick Warren for his running mate while you're doing it. They'll stroke the fuck out

Hillary works even better! They hate Hillary more than they hate Biden.

I like it. What are you saying to them exactly?

To be honest, I'm not really saying anything different than the Biden supporters are, just being a little more aggressive and abrasive. I say the "Vote BLUE no matter who" line a lot and tell them that they have to rally behind Biden. I suggest donating to his campaign and tell them that they should volunteer too. I say they they aren't really progressives if they refuse to support Biden, and that they owe their allegiance to the DNC. I also like to prop up Biden by extolling qualities that he does not have, like eloquence, integrity, a sharp wit, etc. Any negative response that I get in reply, even a reasonable, respectful question, I respond to with shaming, denigration, and personal attacks.

I follow a lot of Democrats on social media and I've observed these interactions between progressives and establishment Democrats. The divide and animosity between them is real and I'm happy to do my part to promote it.
