MODERATORS
I absolutely loathe Biden, but not because of his age (at least, not for any biological reasons; I do think he is stuck in the politics of the 80s and 90s). It annoys me when I see Democrats who echo the b.s. about him being infirm. Attack him for the right reasons (pro-policing, pro-incarceration, anti-immigrant, anti-Palestine, pro-imperialism, etc)
When he was the senator, he pushed forward a lot of bad policies we are stuck with to this day. Bankruptcy Abuse Prevention and Consumer Protection Act and Anti-Drug Abuse Act are only a couple of bad laws he's helped advance while in the Senate.
His age is not of concern for me either. I'll vote for him, because the alternative is Trump. But if the country weren't under the threat of MAGA, Fascism, Nazis, and white/Christian Nationalists, and there were other reasonable options, I probably would vote for someone else.
