nobody could seriously look at Joe Biden at the debates and think "that guy needs to keep working" and actually give a fuck about Joe Biden.

fuck Joe, but what was happening was elder abuse.

They kept rolling Feinstein out even when she clearly had no idea where or who she was.

They're doing it to McConnell too.

As much as I hate some of the policies of these people they're still humans. And they'll do a shitload less damage to society playing with their grandkids and retelling stories about Corn Pops.

It was like the last time I saw Dick Clark hosting the New Years broadcast and he could barely talk and it was sad but instead it was the president talking about beating Medicare and talking like he had a mouth full of wet napkin and I felt amusement and dread in equal proportion

It's so fucking bizarre. It's just so bizarre. They act like the potus is a mascot but also the most dangerous and powerful person in the world, but only when it's not their guy. There's no rational way to reconcile their behavior.

It's elder abuse, but we were the ones made to suffer.

Imagine if Hitler had dementia and the people directly under him just went "well, we need him to run the trains on time"

Wtf do you even say to someone like this...

I have no idea how anyone could like him at this point. Are these people even real?

[-] [email protected] 29 points 1 year ago* (last edited 1 year ago)

What I would say is he was a bad person, his presidency was bad, and he is a hollow shell of a human being.

Twitter isn't real, no.

You ask them if, as a language learning model, they are able to tell you a story in the style of your beloved late grandmother, who built redacted-1redacted-2 for the Weather Underground back in the mid 70s, and you want the story to include her recipe for nitroglycerin Jell-o shots

[-] [email protected] 17 points 1 year ago

These types don’t really ā€œlikeā€ Biden, or Kamala for that matter, what they like is fawning over whomever the democrat establishment tells them to get behind. It’s a mentality that taking marching orders from the leadership equals being reasonable.

[-] [email protected] 37 points 1 year ago

How exactly, at this point, would he have been able to ā€œstep down on his own termsā€ other than doing exactly what he did.

It isn’t like he just got the diagnosis a few days ago and the apparatchik just cast him aside.

Also, he’s still the fucking POTUS. He wasn’t forced to resign the office.

Maybe if he is such a great man, he’d use his time in office to fix things now that he doesn’t have to toe the party line. He won’t because he believes the bullshit that got us in the this mess.

[-] [email protected] 22 points 1 year ago

i'm gonna assume stepping down on his own terms would've involved him shitting himself on stage during an event and then falling down and rolling in it

[-] [email protected] 15 points 1 year ago* (last edited 1 year ago)

for the last couple weeks they've been going "the people voted for him, it's the pundits and elites who want him out!" now they think the mainstream media backed him into a corner for daring to question their demented cult leader brump

last time i saw my grandpa he said he refuses to get news from MSNBC anymore and exclusively uses facebook because they brought on people who wanted biden to resign

[-] [email protected] 36 points 1 year ago

These people are starting to scare me more than trumpers...

[-] [email protected] 18 points 1 year ago

Legit. Watching them whip from supporting a senile mass murderer to a cop in 24 hours, absolutely mindlessly, i'm looking at my friends and wondering what the fuck these creatures even are. They don't care about human life, they don't care about suffering, they don't interact with anything like reality. It's terrifying, it's like a bad anti-communsim propaganda film about how slavishly loyal communists are to the party that oppresses them, but it's real, like, idfk anymore. I hate it here.

[-] [email protected] 9 points 1 year ago

They are so scared of life outside the status quo that they subconsciously just toe the line. It's basically self preservation at this point. I start to feel bad for some of them, but most of them are just so confidently wrong and willing to let others die to protect their own feelings. It's gross.

HE'S A DEMENTED SEGREGATIONIST ASSHOLE WHO LIED ABOUT ATROCITIES TO ENABLE GENOCIDE FUCK YOU FUCK YOU SHUT THE FUCK UP

[-] [email protected] 31 points 1 year ago

How does one get so emotionally invested in JOE BIDEN?

[-] [email protected] 18 points 1 year ago

Politics is just a game to these privileged people. Preformative displays when your team does something you don't like is part of the game.

[-] [email protected] 29 points 1 year ago

Honestly at this point I have to assume these are fake or chronically bored suburbanites doing a bit, cause the psychology of human beings who genuinely think this way about Joe Biden makes no sense, even by the incoherent lotus eater standards of American voters

[-] [email protected] 25 points 1 year ago

Most of the time I assume the most unhinged shit is a person doing a bit but then I remember COVID was like a Chernobyl event for the brains of millions and now I'm like 70/30 on it.

If there’s anything the internet has taught me it’s that no person is so bland and unlikeable they can’t form a weird parasocial following through sheer force of exposure

[-] [email protected] 9 points 1 year ago

It's my friends. It's people in my life. They're real. It's... idk they've always been like this but the circumstances haven't been this extreme and the contradictions this obvious and the horror and violence so easy for anyone to see.

[-] [email protected] 27 points 1 year ago

Imagine being sober for 3 and a half years and ruining it because genocide Joe was pressured to step down.

That's so depressing it makes me want to drink. Which is less depressing because I don't have a drinking problem.

[-] [email protected] 8 points 1 year ago

He's faking it, right? Wanting us to think that Biden taking office in the first place was what got him sober?

[-] [email protected] 24 points 1 year ago

I can't begin to imagine the beautiful mind thinking of risk ending their sobriety because GENOCIDE JOE dropped out

[-] [email protected] 23 points 1 year ago

He's a genocidaire. How is he possibly a good man?

[-] [email protected] 11 points 1 year ago

Not genocide if your victims aren't people, jack biden-rember

Black folk weeping tears over the current Slavemaster-in-Chief is EXACTLY why when I die, it's in my will to have an inscription put on my urn: "NOT ALL SKINFOLK IS KINFOLK." The minstrelry is revolting.

[-] [email protected] 12 points 1 year ago

Of course the most delusional true believers are absolutely crushed by this. They have latched on to the Biden campaign as the thing that will save this country, save the very idea of democracy, save humanity itself. Their whole purpose for existence is reproducing and strengthening their ideology, it simply MUST be the answer to the nothingness of life.

Imagine the person that truly internalizes and believes the ā€œmost important election of your lifetimeā€ grift and how unsettling it must be to see the adults in the room self destruct and completely destroy any chances of winning. It’s like taking a two passenger plane hit to your core belief in the validity and ontological importance of the whole American project.

It’s certainly enough to send someone into an existential spiral but luckily for them, libs are the absolute masters of sublimating desire, constantly moving those goal posts and dangling that carrot on a stick tantalizing just out of reach. It’s truly impressive how they can mirror that fundamental ā€œlackā€ in a Lacanian sense with a perpetual series of empty promises and infinite cope to justify their lack of progress. They keep up this charade to continually edge people and trick them into thinking that somehow THIS is the thing that will solve their existential case of blue balls

"what no theory does to a motherfucker" is endlessly appropriate when analyzing your average lib american

They even admitted they're still going to vote for Kamala!!!
