John Brown stan account: They definitely fucked Hillary. But that's been widely discussed in the last 8 years, and maybe people have learned their lesson. Especially since we're talking about possibly swinging the election to the same fascist ass.

There are a lot of things people are taking as given in this Biden discourse which aren't obviously true. One I haven't seen discussed much is the idea that the NYT can even swing an election anymore

Learn a lesson? In *this* infosphere?

I dunno. AG Sulzberger seems to have his thin fingers on top of every article about Biden. I dumped subscription after forty years of reading the NYT.

It's a lovely thought but my experience indicates no. With the caveat that this is ofc anecdata. I still get thoroughly reviled for the slightest mention of having been a Hillary Clinton supporter, and/or for liking her now. Nobody has learned anything from her having been right about everything.
