It's pretty fuckin' pathetic watching everyone nod along with these, the most insulted of petty tyrants, as they try to actively destroy one of the most progressive presidents in modern history.
I'm just a leftist, once again asking other leftists why they aren't supporting the most pro-union President since FDR as he's attacked by a bunch of truly awful billionaires
Iunno, it probably has something to do with all the horrible policies he's done, and also no leftist is actually "letting Trump" do anything, most of us are against the entire system and think that it should be dismantled, but also that in this system that we have Joe Biden is clearly doing poorly.
Yeah, he's had bad policies since before 10/7. Most people I know have lives that are measurably worse, yet we're constantly told the economy is doing great. Nevermind the fact that his plummeting approval is not, unfortunately, for the genocide in the first place.
People were pointing out how much he fucking sucked even back in 2016.
Do you think his border policy or the fact that he actually is helping build Trump's wall is related to the Palestine conflict?
Do you think the ineffectual opposition to the destruction of Roe or trans health is 10/7 related?
there’s nothing the president can do to protect roe from scotus gutting it
if you wanna say abortions on federal land/bases in red states yeah that’s a terrible idea
i am trans and hes enacted trans protections, some of which trump judges gutted, and his doj appealed every red state shit law
I am sick to fucking death of being told that the powerless is an impotent smol bean but also that if Trump becomes president he'll be able to do anything that he wants.
I wish Democrats had spines.
Biden also doesn't fight the way that Trump does. Biden was literally just given extreme power and said "I will not use this power because I am a good boy".
The fact that Trump is allowed to run in the first place is fucking ridiculous. This is not a game. We are going to fucking die.
biden was not given extreme power. if you think biden can order assassinations against his political enemies idk what to tell you but no that’s not true
Biden's admittedly not perfect on everything including trans rights, but he's the only one of the two candidates who'll provide them with a better future provided he not only wins but gets a more favorable Congress. Plus, we need more senators in the event that Alito or Thomas pass away.
he’s not perfect on trans issues but also he’s a key node in pushing the dem party to the left on trans issues. it was one of the last things beau was involved in before his passing and it clearly left an impact. also sarah mcbride has had a big impact on him
Even where Biden is bad on the issues, there's no situation where Trump is better, & since one of these two will be in office next year, people need to decide who they would rather oppose
I will not beg anyone for their vote, because if they don't see the urgency here and now, they are too far gone
I see urgency, it's just not in the same course of action as you. My entire adult life fascism had been in the rise and Democrats have done little to combat it, all while criticizing breaches of decorum.
The system is broken. Something else has to be done.
Yeah, some people just don't want to be convinced even though they have legitimate reasons for being cynical. I think it would be better to focus more on turning out the vote for those who are still willing to listen.
being from DC has already made me give up hope on here because I think if people find out one of my friends works at the Bureau of Labor Statistics the dolls on here will say I'm "connected to feds" or something
Best union president of our lifetimes, best economics president ever, first president to take significant action on climate. The alternative is someone who wants to round you up and put you in a camp.
If he's the best economics president then why does everyone's quality of life seem worse?
The man forced us to go back to work during a fucking plague.
Also it is wild to me that Humble Novice says no one does the camps thing but here you are doing it.
Motherfucker, "vote for our guy because the other one will put you in the camps" is not appealing. You have a gun to my head. You are literally threatening me.
What the fuck do you think some disabled Portlandser tranny is going to accomplish by voting for Biden?
are you…trans? cuz i a disabled tranny that literally got housed by his policies while homeless a year and 1 week ago have some Questions about using that term if not
I cannot help this man win. Nothing I do will change the course of this election.
Pretending like this election will be lost because of leftists who just want to burn it all down is delusional and at odds with reality.
He is running Hilary 2016 except he's also dying while doing it.
the guy didn’t force people to go back to work what?
do you get that ie the cdc can’t even mandate masks anymore or that scotus ruled the rent and student loan moratorium were beyond their authority?
The highest growing sector is the gig economy.
Maybe if everyone feels like things cost too much, that's a sign that the economy isn't doing good regardless of what the grafts say.
Except that people are spending more. Would they do that if matters were as you say?
This has been looked at over and over. When people are interviewed they say they're doing well but the country isn't.
the reason things cost so much is poor people got paid more and global supply chain shocks mixed with corporate greed. currently there’s a ftc doj criminal investigation into grocery store and quasi grocers like target price fixing
Because this is the man you are telling me is going to save me while I am sitting here on fire being pissed on.
I'm done with this. I don't have the spoons.
Biden is going to lose and you're going to blame Berniebros or some shit because he couldn't convince Michigan he was good for the economy.
A lot of leftists somehow believe liberals are gleefully wishing for them to be put in the camps, but don't they realize that's not what the latter folks truly want at all?
I have literally seen people gleefully telling minorities that they deserve the camps if they don't vote for Biden, and even that criticizing Biden is helping him lose and deserves the same punishment.
People who voted for Hillary and will vote for Biden are harassed for not praising him.
I'm not going to deny that some liberals are cruel and spiteful enough to do this, but do you really believe every single one of them wants to see leftists suffer and die all because of political disagreements that are not as major when collectively contrasted with the far right?
I don't care if it's every single one of them. Plenty have no problem when that shit happens under Democrats. And will get angry if you point out that Democrats are doing it.
In 2020 Biden was my 5th choice, after Cory Booker, Kamala, Elizabeth Warren, and Pete Buttigieg. But then , like now, it's an emergency. Get rid of wannabe Mussolini and we'll do better next time.
some people get really gross with the camps stuff but importantly quoting trump and saying this is what’s at stake is not threatening someone with camps, that would be trump.
Not the threat but the warning. In 2016, when we warned that the Supreme Court was at risk, we heard similar objections. I haven't seen many mea culpas since.
there’s even an abject rejection to the idea people fucked up by not voting for her
like sorry but her campaign fucking up or being a poor candidate and failing to persuade them doesnt mean they didn’t also fail to be persuaded
Biden's already doing a lot of good for immigrants, but it's probably not enough for you, is it? We could send you articles of him passing executive actions that do help people, but you'd most likely ignore it anyway.
He's doing a lot of good for immigrants by creating the situations that drive immigration, sure.
Helping some people doesn't change the increased, brutal border security. So, no, I won't ignore it, I just won't be swayed by it.
