Joe biden lost a winnable election due to his own vanity and lack of human decency. Fuck him. He governed better than any democrat since what Lindon Johnson? But its far too little too late to pay for a lifetime of fucking people over
Biden is a war criminal and if there was any justice he would rot in prison with his entire administration.
What does it tell you when both candidate of a genocidal country bloat about the ceasefire they got after months and months of slaughter, while their allies bombed people **while they celebrated the said ceasefire. **
And if you voted for this fuck I personally hate you. Fucking die.
Biden was an og Congressional neoliberal. A prominent one. He helped Reagan convert Republican’s former opposition party into the corpo bribe taking, social inclusion!.. Economic die in the streets… party it is today, locking arms with Republicans to defend our murderous economy from us as they stoke social division between us so we don’t look up at our sociopath owners.
Voted for him out of harm reduction compared to Trump, a vote for quiet not peace, but fuck Joe Biden.
I agree fuck him he wasn’t bad but boy did he lack a spine
It really impressed me how he pardoned that corrupt judge on the way out. Just to prevent anyone from having positive memories of him.
Not even any corrupt judge. He pardoned the Cash4Kids judge.
This just in: Oligarch warns about other oligarchs
Yeah, thanks dude, for not actually doing anything about it. Enjoy your millions in retirement.
Should retire, right now, so Kamila is president for a few days. Just so technically she’s a president. Just to annoy trump
She’s already been Sitting President, if you count that.
Just to make all those Trump 47 bumper stickers look silly.
I’m not a fan of any of them but this would be hilarious.
I am personally for small fuckery to Trump fans, just to make them squirm and piss their pants.
Ah yes, the healthy Democracy of a developed nation…
let me be frank, they’d feverishly fork over few more fistfuls of fiat for some fashionable forty-eight fittings
wanton baby murder wasn’t enough to get him to change his position, so, i wouldn’t hold my breath about this one
Are you trolling or in it for the long game? Cause, there might not be any Palestinians left next time the US gets to vote.
Oligarch warns of oligarchy
No
Biden has his faults, sure, but Trump & co are on such another level that it’s literally not funny anymore
Without Biden, Trump and Co. had a pretty fucking decent shot at losing. Sorry, but between his breathtaking hubris for running again, and his inflexibility on Israel, I will never, ever forgive that man. He had one fucking job, and he fucking blew it. Same-sex marriage will be “state by state” by the end of the year, and I will be an old man before my LGBT and female friends and family have their rights restored - and that’s if they have their rights restored.
That is a cost of decades upon the ones I love. I cannot and will not forgive that because he has a “D” next to his name when he did more than any single person to ensure that theocratic fascist cretinous scum with an “R” next to their names got locked into power.
“No one’s standard of living will change, nothing will fundamentally change”
- Biden addressing his donors in 2019
Whataboutism
On what fucking planet is Biden an oligarch
Are you fucking kidding me? He’s a plutocrat.
Thank God Joe promised to address this issue before taking office:
“Nothing will fundamentally change.”
Ah. Die of gonorrhea and burn in hell, then.
He could use his Supreme Court given powers and do something with that?
It makes me feel less crazy that people in here are saying exactly what I’ve felt for years.
God it’s nice to know others can see that the rotating seat of emperor has no clothes.
Damn. Looks like you guys are headed for a system that treats rich people and poor people differently. Where you can get away with countless felony charges just for being of a particular status in society.
Where they’ll push for the death penalty for someone that shoots a CEO but sleep when schools get shot up(see below). I feel bad for you guys that all of this is only going to start happening to you on January 20, 2025.I mean we’ve always really been that place but at least the 1% had the decency to pretend they were for fair and equal treatment and justice for all.
Can you please cite a source on school shooters who got off scott free?
Ok, so I was going with the online buzz around Luigi described in this article. According to the article, the claim is debunked but it then goes on to describe how school shooters have received terrorism charges and ended up with life in prison, but gives no examples of school shooters being given the death penalty. So I’m half wrong, as far as I’m concerned. They did almost immediately start talking about the death penalty for Luigi. And they haven’t gone that far with school shooters.
Several school shooters have been tried with the death penalty, no different than Mangione in that regard. In case you were unaware, Luigi hasn’t even been tried until his court date in February, after which a Jury will give their verdict and then a much later date Sentencing will be decided.
It would be unusual for capital punishment to be carried out in Mangione’s case even if he gets that sentence, even among those who are given the death penalty usually end up waiting years or even decades and by then a politician might come out and commute it forcing them to live out their lives in prison, such as the Biden administration commuting 37 such sentences but choosing not to commute several such as the Boston Marathon Bomber.
Thanks for the better context. So all the talk and buzz is online hype that I got caught up in, clearly. Editing my original comment.
President Biden warns of ‘oligarchy’ as he bids farewell to five decades in
politicsservice to the oligarch-beholden establishmentFixed it for them.
If we allowed Biden and the DNC to write the tax plans it would have made billionaires eat shit. Instead the country reelected the guys who made the last awful tax plan just as it expires next year.
He did try many times to get rid of student loans, only for Trump’s judicial picks to say it’s illegal to forgive loans of poor people
Fun fact: if he hadn’t deliberately means tested student loan forgiveness to death, the GOP lawyers wouldn’t have been able to argue discrimination and he knew that.
He wanted the credit for trying, but his owner donors didn’t want his “attempt” to actually succeed.
and he knew that.
Or
He’s a fucking liberal that believes means-testing actually works.
Except for all the times that it doesn’t. This is one of those times.
People who are rich enough to not need student loan forgiveness don’t have student loans in the first place. Either they come from a rich family that paid for their college or they did so themselves after becoming rich.
With that in mind, means testing student loan forgiveness to death was a hell of a lot of downside including the argument that the fascists used to kill it, in exchange for absolutely no upside.
Regardless of his personal beliefs, half a century worth of experience should be WAY more than necessary to find out how things work regardless of how you think they SHOULD work.
He either knew that means testing would doom it to failure and did it anyway, means tested it BECAUSE he knew it would cause it to fail, or he was WAY too incompetent and naive for someone who’d been in the game for longer than most people have been ALIVE.
Either way, he fucked it up.
If we allowed Biden and the DNC to write the tax plans
We did. As usual, they didn’t do what they and people like yourself who’s drunk the kool-aid keep pretending they’re going to do.
We literally didn’t, lol, the Trump era tax plans expire next year.
He was president and the Dems had congressional majorities for some of the time. If they really wanted to significantly overhaul the tax code, they could have.
They want to PRETEND that they’re on the side of the people against the billionaires to fool the gullible into thinking that they’re the good guys rather than the least bad ones, but they know who pays them and it ain’t you…
The senate was a 50:50 deadlock unable to pass anything without Republicans agreeing or they faced filibuster, and even then they needed all 48/47 DNC and independents to vote in unison if none of the Republicans crossed the isle, then utilize VP tiebreaker.
The house was a DNC majority for only his first two years.
And as I explained to you multiple times, the tax plan did not expire under Biden’s presidency.
“Oh hey guys there’s an oligarchy, sorry I didn’t do anything about it or say something earlier, peace out yall”
To be fair the entire last 4 years has been past his naptime at every moment of every day, so he had to delegate everything to whatever randos he could find.
And spent the past 4 weeks doing fuck all to stop it. Whatever, I guess this is just the ultimate post-Reagan Dems “they go low, we go high” moment.
“Trump is a Nazi and he will end the world if you dont vote Democrat.” > “Alright, I’m gonna hand the reigns over to the nazi who’s going to end the world. It’s the principled thing to do.”
If he refused to hand over the White House that would make him a dictator himself. Like it or not Americans voted for Trump. Even the ones that didn’t vote for whatever dumb reason.
I sure as shit did not vote for Trump. I only want him upside down like a certain Italian leader he emulates.
Sure, and Weimar Germany voted for Hitler. Tell me, what exactly is the point of democracy if someone can legally be elected to end democracy? What exactly is the point, if you can just vote someone in who will end democracy? I would argue that one non-democratic act is literally and absolutely superior in every way to literally ending democracy.
But what the fuck do i know I’m just a trans woman sitting here absolutely horrified that several of my trans friends who live in the southern states could be arrested in a week or two for existing. That trans youth across the country are going to be forced to detransition. A whole generation of dead kids because a dictator takes over the country and to appease his rabid voter base puts their rights on the chopping block.
It was all a fucking lie. WW2 wasn’t the last time. The holocaust wasn’t the last time. No one learned a single fucking lesson. All the liberals who say “If I was in Germany I’d never have supported the nazis” are absolutely categorically full of shit. It never mattered. They could start rounding people up in the street and peoples primary response would be either annoyance at the blood on their shoes or passive distant pity. And I’m so fucking done with it honestly. Democracy is an empty word. It means nothing. If you live in America you have never once lived in a democratic society, not even if you’re a boomer. It’s just now the dictators are no longer even pretending that the system has any other purpose than mass violence and exploitation. They don’t have to pretend. They’ve convinced half the world those things are good.
Yeah but are you mad or afraid enough to do something about it or are you just like the people you complain about?
Are you under some pretense that I myself can stem the tide of transphobic violence? Are you suggesting it is personally my responsibility to end fascism, even as millions of people stand by doing nothing while the lives of an entire community are threatened?
How dare you use the words “mad” or “afraid” to describe the feeling of living under the impending threat of state violence.
Yawn. All it takes is a few people to create a movement. Clearly, you aren’t interested in doing anything to help yourself. Perhaps it needs to get a little worse before you decide to stand up. I understand completely.
Like it or not Americans voted for Trump.
Yep fucktard fuck around stage complete! Now comes at least 4 years of finding out.
You could… ya know. Put that username to action.
I can’t blame him. When my shift ends it’s somebody else’s problem.
The genocide wasnt somebody elses problem. Nor was the election that he bungled and sabotaged.
Except that firefighters dont usually let the fire grow and spread while sitting on their hands and then hand it off at the end of the day with a shrug.
Well, in this example the fire was already raging when Joe’s shift began and he prioritized protecting the neighborhood bank and insurance office before any of the houses. At the end of his shift he makes a statement to watch out for the people who work in those places while the inferno levels the rest of the neighborhood.
Or Biden has been fanning the flames since the Reagan Admin with neoliberal bullshit.
But cops will absolutely make everything worse for others. We can cherrypick jobs as examples.
Especially if your shift ends and you should have been retired nearly 20 years ago.
Yah except it was by choice he didn’t retire sooner
IBGYBG: Motto of the leadership of the Democratic Party
IBGYBG? Ivan Brought Guns, You Better Go? That’s an odd motto to have 🤔
I am equally confused.
"Today, an oligarchy is taking shape in America of extreme wealth, power and influence that literally threatens our entire democracy
Taking shape? Like it’s new? Like it’s only now just emerging? Jesus Christ, Biden…
Fucking neoliberal trash.
Guess you shoulda done something about that Joe. Like say, when you were president?
Properly prosecute Trump, for example.
He probably should have led with this speech.
