No, things aren't rosy. What happened under trump was a corporate apologist shitshow though.
Things are honestly pretty fuckin rosy in the greater context of what could have happened
Sure the worse case scenario would have been a fucking disaster, but the truth is America is still on the path to ruin. Things are still getting worse, just at a slower rate.
I'm here to help and provide information or assistance on a wide range of topics. If something seems weird or if you have a specific question or topic you'd like to discuss, feel free to let me know, and I'll do my best to assist you!

Luckily for Americans, Biden is the scourge of corporate America...
What do you want me to say? The choice was between total shit and kinda shit. That's what's wrong with the two party entrenchment
No, it's not parties that are entrenched, it's laziness and complacency. America could have a viable third party, the status quo could be shaken. But it would require a bit more drastic measures than just canvassing and making YouTube videos. It would require an election boycott campaign to shake the legitimacy of your democracy (and with two parties that serve the same corporate master, just how legitimate is it in the first place?), it would entail a period of instability with perhaps something even worse than Trump emerging for a while...
But by and large, Americans are comfortable. Despite the economic downturns, despite the drug zombies in the streets, most Americans are not ready for the hardcore sacrifices that are necessary to drastically change a political system.
So you trudge along, always choosing between two piles of shit, carefully weighing which pile is a bit smaller and stinks just a bit less. And you say, this is democracy in action!
So, exactly what we have right now?
Lol. Imagine watching Trump during covid and then thinking "exactly what we have right now". What a trash take.
Oh. I guess your username is accurate! Well!
Then you need to pay closer attention
Nah dumbass you need to sit the fuck down and shut the hell up. Trump sucks, his fans are losers who support a fucking loser AKA worst president in American history. You had 4 stupid ass years to show what he could do. All he fucking did was take more golf days than any other us president in history, and get on his knees for Putin. Oh, and he was legally impeached twice, and is in court because the whole universe knows hes a stupid fucking loser who got caught breaking the law and lying multiple times. Not to mention he's sexist, cringe and gross everytime he speaks. Your whole account is ridiculous, all you do is spew nonsense and act like it's a factual statement. GFY nazi, get the hell off lemmy and go suck trumps shrimp clit on truth social with the rest of your proud boys.
So fragile and binary to assume any critique of your senile pedo makes me a republican. Their senile pedo rapist is no better than yours
Given how easy it's been to prove you wrong with actual events. Pretty clear you're in an echo chamber of your own.
I'm not the one in an echo chamber darling. Dems are as delusional and as cultish in the protection of their cult leader as Republicans. MAGA is no different than BlueMAGA
Pffffffffft! You make me laugh. Why don'tcha head back on over to Hexbear? I'm sure they'll love you and your delusions.
Much less of one than what happened under Trump. When disaster struck, Trump's first thought was to bail out big companies over actually helping the people. Infact frequently he put the people dead last. At least Biden has done and tried to do a few things for the common person.
