I don't even disagree in principle with them that Biden is not the ideal candidate, it's just abject cowardice to take that position NOW, as opposed to 15 months ago.
Maybe a rethink after the incredible job he’s done as President? I did not support him in the 2020 primary, but he has completely exceeded my expectations.
What's it like to be so high on your own supply you think Biden is actually doing ANYTHING AT ALL that resembles being an effective president for anybody but corporate oligarchy and the warhawks?
Literally, nothing you can point out that has been 'for the people' was actually for the people, it was for his image and re-electability because they know all the garbage shit he's doing on the other end of the fence.
And his little political marks like you gobble it up and take victory laps while the planet and the people on it are literally DYING crushed under the capitalist heel of policies Biden supports and in fact enables!
Judges, labor, getting out of Afghanistan, basically ending drone strikes, lowering unemployment, rising wages, dramatically increasing renewable energy production, ending the Saudi pricing monopoly on gas, overtime pay regs, getting rid of junk fees, reshoring semi-conductor manufacturing, etc.
You and I are in agreement on Palestine. I don’t think there’s a Democrat who’s going to be much better than Biden and I know that Donald Trump would be 1000 times worse. Trump just said last week that Joe Biden is so soft on Palestinians that he IS Palestinian.

I think you might be responding back in good faith, I genuinely believe that. So I'm gonna say this: The "Nuclear family" thing? that's a poison pill we were all force fed and led to this.
The "Nuclear Family" thing was a nuclear bomb meant to deter forming melting pot communities. I personally believe this and it was a goddamn successful one at that. It effectively convinced a lot of people that you should be able to buy build maintain and provide for an entire family of 4 off 1 back
What we're arguing with you here, is that there are more effective means of returning to community to build community up/out/etc so that people are taken care of, and it's very practical to be doing so now before things get worse
We're not in agreement. You keep pointing out a bunch of shit that Biden did that make him a "good president" as though you don't consider committing genocide to be a deal breaker. Because you don't.
Ok I'm still assuming (probably a little markish of me to assume so) that you're attempting to reply in good faith so here goes:
Judges: You have literally no room to talk w/ the judicial chaos going on right now
Drone strikes: We're trying to build a fucking "Drone Corps" wing of defense in 2025
"Lowering unemployment" You aren't looking at it sector by sector there is a ton of jobs that are being crushed and people who previously had access to middle class income who just don't have easily applicable/transferrable skills, and that is not factoring in that unemployment itself
In any economy there are winners and losers.
Under Biden unemployment is down and wages are up. That is an absolute good. My uncle got out of jail in 2018. He was unable to find work until 2022. Then last year he got an enormous raise. Going from unemployed to employed is huge.
"in any economy there are winners and losers" is actually a bullshit argument that holds no fucking weight. In a community you don't leave people behind. You build them up give them what they need to find themselves adn let them grow.
Joe Biden has been excellent on appointing judges who walk more like America than any other president before him.
Those drones are to protect Taiwan from China. Do you think that’s a bad idea?
And you’re ignoring that he stopped the drone program that Obama used and Trump expanded.
Whoever convinced you that you are safer with the state having your security personally in mind did you a disservice. The fact you used the phrase "walk more like America" is scary. You don't recognize your own culpability in the system of destruction we're dealing with.
You're dangerously close to coming on "America First" language, which is legit straight up nazi hyperbole and has been since the literal times of the nazis.
