I hope in his mental spiral, he is haunted by delusions of all his victims- in Palestine, in Russia and Ukraine, across the MENA region, etc... I hope he can't sleep at night, and lives one foot in the grave, and wastes away as painfully as possible. I hope he knows he is a disgrace to that Irish heritage he so proudly (and clearly, undeservedly) wears on his sleeve; I hope he knows that likely, his ancestors would be disgusted at what their failson of a descendant has become.

Maybe if we're lucky, in a decade or two we'll see a (even more) drug-addled, mentally degraded Biden facing a tribunal for his crimes. Won't matter if he'll be in his 90s, or even past 100, justice for genocide has no expiration date.

no chance. if he's haunted by something, it's desegregated schools.

The man who forced everyone to catch airborne dementia will eventually succumb to it, it's unavoidable

I'm pretty far from Biden but I'm claiming that too

[–] [email protected] 32 points 5 months ago

Pretty sure he's been showing visible signs of cognitive decline since 2020 elections. The sad part for people who aren't genocidal imperialists, is I'm not sure how much it matters either way. Supposing that he's not all there, a clear-minded Biden would likely be making much the same decisions, considering his past record in politics. So either way, he's still a piece of shit doing immense harm, whether he's all there mentally doing it or he's somewhat of a stand-in for it by this point.

That is readily apparent just from watching him speak publicly. If you can't even read a pre-prepared speech without losing your train of thouht or reading teleprompter cues you probably should not be working.

In this kind of situation I would normally say I feel bad for the elder abuse, but he has been such a piece of shit his entire life he isn't worth the sympathy.

Getting worse, he literally doesn't know where he is half the time.

The fact any liberal thought that move of him slowly turning and smiling at the reporters before walking out of the room without comment was a win is fucking crazy.

I've seen people do that move before, they were all non verbal and in a nursing home and it's usually after a nurse told them not to go wandering off now.

He's like the living embodiment of the decaying empire, Biden is the Avatar of America.

[–] [email protected] 13 points 5 months ago (1 children)

FUCKING DIE ALREADY YOU OLD FUCK.

Can he at least change to a decent vp before that?

Get in line Joe you're nothing special

Critical support for mental illness

It's wild how Dems/libs have let this happen. I don't think Kamala Harris would be a good candidate or president necessarily. But Biden can only get worse with time. Harris could get better for them. The Democrats should have been coaching and grooming her for this election for 4 years, instead of her wandering around drugged out of her mind saying random things, they could have buffed and polished her.

[–] [email protected] 21 points 5 months ago (2 children)

It's absolutely incredible to me that they decided to run Biden.

[–] [email protected] 19 points 5 months ago (2 children)

Everything they do only makes sense if you believe that they wanted to throw the election.

[–] [email protected] 22 points 5 months ago

I mean if they lose the election, they will just run lucrative media gigs screeching how bad trump is for the next 4 years. There's literally zero penalty for throwing the election.

[–] [email protected] 6 points 5 months ago* (last edited 5 months ago)

Nah, they're trying to win, they're just constrained by:

  1. Being a capitalist party that can't firmly promise much material aid to voters
  2. Being an imperialist party that can't respond to widespread discontent with current imperial wars
  3. All upper leadership having golden parachutes in media, banking, law, etc.
  4. No real way to force Biden out
  5. No better option (again, given the restraints of a capitalist party) than an incumbent who's already beaten Trump once
  6. Liberal ideology like "we need a strong Republican Party" and "we can't simply arrest this guy we're calling a fascist"
  7. The general incompetence that crops up when party leaders basically can't fail their way out of endless party job opportunities

If you and I got in a boxing match and for some reason I insisted on wearing 50 pound weights on my ankles, I could try really hard and would still suck given my self-imposed constraints.

Like sure winning 2020? Okay, but there definitely needed to be an exit/succession plan straight away. And a better VP who can step up.

[–] [email protected] 14 points 5 months ago

maybe they did take a look at kamala and decided a dude with dementia is still better than whatever the fuck she has...

[–] [email protected] 22 points 5 months ago (1 children)

Good, I hope he gets nightmares for the rest of his miserable life

[–] [email protected] 17 points 5 months ago (1 children)

Biden is not losing sleep over dead palestinians. His brain is rotting from the sheer force of steering a dying empire.

[–] [email protected] 7 points 5 months ago

Each U.S president gets into office and immediately has to hook up to a golden-throne 40k office chair everytime they're at the desk and has to power the U.S Empire through the souls of third world civilians.

[–] [email protected] 20 points 5 months ago

Istg there’s an army of bots that downvote everything critical of Biden and the Western narrative of the June 4th incident

[–] [email protected] 20 points 5 months ago

Behind closed doors?? Like this has not been obvious to everyone for a long time now.

[–] [email protected] 18 points 5 months ago

welp, i hope his mental state gets worse 🙏

[–] [email protected] 18 points 5 months ago (1 children)

He was a racist piece of shit when lucid too.

[–] [email protected] 14 points 5 months ago

yeah that's his core identity

[–] [email protected] 15 points 5 months ago
[–] [email protected] 14 points 5 months ago

Was it ever normal to begin with?

[–] [email protected] 3 points 5 months ago

I mean I suppose it is technically impressive but these morticians are still making a mockery of the trade

[–] [email protected] 3 points 5 months ago (1 children)

They had the chance of at least switching his VP to someone… ANYONE competent. Hell even Hillary Clinton is less shit than Harris.

[–] [email protected] 2 points 5 months ago

lol yeah, they just don't care at all

[–] [email protected] 2 points 5 months ago* (last edited 5 months ago)

Lol looks like Genocide Brandon had dementia after all.
