"Fine, if you're not going to vote Biden, at least vote down ballot. Primaries and local offices are the next wave of politicians."

[Funds into primaries to remove progressives from office, backs conservatives because of "electability".]

"Oh uh, sorry. By the way this is you, the pleb's fault, not the rich we gladly accept. Maybe next year we won't pull the football out of the way when someone pays us to?"

If Recall went through, so much for "it's all localized and offline."

I understand its (currently) not happening, but if Microsoft was able to deflect the criticism long enough, and since no company makes a change like this overnight (The time to approve of the privacy policies, shifting of storage for it, the increased traffic on their servers needing to be accommodated), can you imagine just having it still installed and enabled by default?

We only got Al Capone due to tax evasion, and even Trump gets around that! The fucking mafia committing crimes has to worry about the IRS more than dipshit orange fuck Trump.

Again, can we call ourselves a democracy when one of the "only" choices is a convicted felon who tried to coup the government? Because there's a word for when the "the worst, least qualified, or most unscrupulous citizens" run the joint, it's Kakistocracy.

Jesus Christ can we just lock him away? Why does he get to run for office, get more money for being a charged criminal, while us plebs have to worry about cops shooting first and asking questions later?

Gag him, but it won't do dick when he's already been gagged and violated it, and courts take forever for the richest and most corrupt fuckers on the planet. He needs to be in jail for his crimes. (Yes I know you can run for office from jail, Eugene V. Debs did it when he was arrested for protesting the draft of WW1.)

Rape jokes aren't cool even if its prisoners or male on male. Jesus Christ.

  • Freeing Mexican citizens locked in cages at the border, but has in fact increased the numbers according to the ACLU, and now limiting the numbers of who can come in like fascist Trump wanted
  • The COVID pandemic is still ongoing, we're just ignoring it while I've had friends die from it after it was "over" according to the CDC. Also removing the 14 day expected leave for it to improve ~~companies fucking over sick and healthy workers alike~~ the economy
  • Roe v Wade being reinstated, for the party that "cares about women's rights".
  • Minimum Wage increases (Yes Congress is in charge of the purse, but can he say "please fucking do it so everyone has better income?")
  • Ran on trying to stop cops from shooting innocent civilians, but in his first State of the Union said "We don't need to defund the police, we need to fund the police!" to bipartisan roaring applause. I know he has a fucking cop as a VP, but god damn.
  • And he's not doing anything to stop Project 2025 from getting into place if Trump wins.
  • Could maybe consider giving new arms to Ukraine and stop funding explicit genocide in Palestine.
  • Didn't help the unions during the rail strikes give into the demands for better worker safety and benefits, blocking it like how Reagan blocked the FAA from striking for safety and benefits
  • Still allows Trump-era expansions of spying agencies, that was made public under "constitutional lawyer and defender" Obama, and instated under Dubya.

But we don't have the President saying stupid shit on Twitter every day, so I guess that means we're back to a sane normal, or whatever white cishet liberals need to say to sleep well at night. Ignore the bloodshed of BIPOC and queers, women and their doctors fleeing red states over being arrested for bodily autonomy, and that white nationalists just goosestep freely because its not respectable to tell fascists to fuck off and die, it doesn't impact you, so it's all sane politics and electable!

But they did make headlines, that's how we know about these. The FTC and FCC doing their job more is good and makes headlines.

It's good, don't get me wrong. But man it feels like table scraps compared to a lot on what Biden ran on in 2020.

And I'd just like a president who doesn't break promises, protects women's rights, fights against a corrupt court, didn't lock up more Mexicans at the border, raised the minimum wage, protected the EPA, didn't claim COVID is over while people are still dying...

"But that's Congress' job!" And yeah sure it is, but has he ever fucking asked Congress to do these things? Has he been vocal consistently about it like progressives want him to? Nope. He won't be.

When you vote for lesser evil, you get evil.

"He's murdered people and failed to protect the rights of Americans."

"Uhh... so?"

God do you people just like to sound like dismissive pricks to bloodshed or is it second nature to selling your soul to a party?

Can't buy products if the products aren't for sale. That's why they keep doing it. It lets people blame the Russian government and people on buying it and the American government and people for failing prohibiting the sale of it.

When the simple solution is: Don't allow companies to sell products to your enemies when it's war.
