Biden was, for lack of a better term, normal. He didnt make a show out of every single little in thing, in an effort to convince us he was smart, or tough, or attractive to the opposite sex, or any of the other dumb as fuck shit the insecure as fuck man baby and chief does every day and did every day during his last term.

I get not liking Dems, I really get not liking Hilary. I can understand not liking Harris. But this guy? This fucking guy??? How in the sweet fuck did this fucking loser become anyone's first pick?

he gets us. he understands our small penises, and how our penises used to be bigger in the past, but now immigrants are making it hard for us to stay rock hard. the democats barely talk about penises, or vaginas either for that matter, and so we chose a new daddy to rule us. his penis is our penis, and when he says that his tiny flaccid penis is the biggest strongest penis that ever lived, it makes ours feel big too

It kinda felt like Biden's entire presidency was waking up knowing that fascist hell was coming. One could tell after Jan 6th, the Russian invasion of Ukraine made it clear, the midterms confirmed it, and Oct 7th enshrined the impending reality.

We did have a couple weeks of optimism though after he dropped out and before the campaign intentionally shit the bed.

So he did give us that.

Its almost funny to think that them forcing Tim Walz to stop saying weird probably caused the US to do its nazi spiral.

How about the elation of the day they finally called the 2020 election for Biden and we knew Trump was dethroned for 4 years too? People were laughing and cheering in the streets near me. Best feeling I'd had in 4 years

I think many ITT need to hear this: perfect is the enemy of the good.

Hope and strive for perfection, sure! But anyone looking for a candidate that is going to exactly mirror their own own views on policy are as misguided as those who voted for the orange shit stain because he "talks just like me."

Y'all have no idea how much my mental health has deteriorated since the morning of November 6 as a foreign-born naturalized US Citizen.

"Do you agree!!???!"

Fifty bucks says this is a bot account.

[–] turdcollector69@lemmy.world 5 points 3 days ago

You mean to tell me the 2 day old "OccupyDemocrats" account with over 40 political posts is a bot?

It really sucks that Lemmy has a bot problem. It's obvious spam for now but the bot handlers are trying to force a consensus like they've done on reddit.

At least when Lemmy goes to total shit I won't have anything left to go to so quitting the internet will be easier.

How low the bar is kinda sucks though...

It would be stupid to disagree with this.

The number of foolish idealists who will literally fight against their own goals to feel superior and like they are better for either actively supporting fascism or sitting by on the sidelines will never cease to amaze.

There are 3 major groups of morons to me:

  • The “lets make a third party!” morons

  • The “I am morally superior for not voting” morons

  • Of course, the actively malicious “I let the billionaires tell me that them fucking me was actually brown people’s fault” morons.

You are why the dems will always lose. You are why we have fascism. You are the problem.

Turns out the fresh hell that was coming next was Trump.

He was a war criminal just like almost all presidents before him and Trump

[–] WoodScientist@lemmy.world 17 points 4 days ago (1 children)

I did. Because I knew, from the moment he got the nomination in 2020, that Trump would get a second term. You cannot fight fascism with the ideology that lead to fascism.
