My friend said to me the other day “why did democrats nominate such a weak candidate?” To which I asked since given the fact that weak and strong are relative terms, can you point out 1 specific aspect where Biden is weaker than his opponent? She had no answer other than “he is just weak”
Don’t let these fuckers gaslight you in thinking the convicted felon with 90+ indictments and a wannabe dictator is somehow stronger than the alternative.
I know it's good in this instance that Biden is likely to win because he can out spend the orange one, but I still find it crazy that your politics is just about who has the deepest pockets. Spending limits are a thing for a reason.
Biden is the most liberal President that the Democratic Party has allowed to become president since Jimmy Carter. And that’s cool.
But after 40+ years of both the Republican Party and the Democratic Party getting on their knees to give the sloppiest, messiest blowjobs for corporate America, the Republican Party lacks the ability to govern, and the Democratic Party lacks the ability to lead, and neither have any intention of doing anything to benefit U.S. citizens unless it either benefits the wealthy most or is needed to improve their chances of reelection.
I feel like this messaging is reductive and stupid. The problem is not people being anti-Biden. The problem is a broken-ass system and political parties that hope we don’t realize it.
The exceptionally stupid thing is that Republicans want to tear the system down and take it over, and the Democratic Party seems to think that is a cute point to campaign on, rather than an existential fucking crisis that they aren’t taking seriously because they’re afraid if they pull that corporate dick out their mouth and start actually embracing the will of the people that they won’t have the funds to campaign.
I'd have the same response to "If the Cowboys want to win this year..." if I gave two shits about football.
At best it's just mindless armchair politics. Nobody cares what you think Biden 'should do'. If it's not obvious to you that he's the best option you can stfu and vote Trump.
I'm not keen on the philosophy of accelerationism but america is so chewed up with essentially two party's both fucking terrible and with a limited chance of any other party ever getting in that I can only imagine the path to change in america would be a destructive one. Its lovely to think that maybe the masses would mobiles and democratically bring in a alternative party, truly lovely.
From Europe its sadly easy to think this but I do feel for my american comrades, solidarity.
