I hate that I saw this.
I hate this country's politically braindead approach. Literally no one likes this shit. And I am censored from speaking (yaayyyyy so free!) from what should immediately happen to the general skull region of anyone who says phrases like "we want to protect and strengthen democracy!" unless the exact next words are "...by seizing private industries and returning them to workers!" (Alternatively I'd accept something like the state owning them so everyone owns them in common). If your idea of "democracy" is voting for one neoliberal who says "abortion! Maybe?" vs the other one who says "abortion! No!" that's not democracy. That's not anything. It's just some veneer over top of a bourgeois-serving hellscape being propped up by exploitation of the third world and very quickly hurtling towards offering nothing to the imperial core residents either... seems sustainable!
You know what else shows a strong democracy? When 80 fucking percent of YOUR OWN PARTY and a majority of the country as a whole says what you're doing to Gaza is an atrocity and it needs to end- immediately. You don't listen to them, you don't offer an argument (because there isn't one to defend genocide), you just yell "wow, racists!", and when that doesn't work you just have your Nazi-like ideologues shoutdown dissenters at every public gathering and the secret service immediately, illegally most of the time but hey civil rights amiright JOE VALUES THE FIRST AMENDMENT HE SAID SO, yeah he values it so much he'll happy have his goonsquad flop a black bag over your head, put you in cuffs, and charge you as a terrorist for having the audacity to show up and simply shout at his old Nazi ass to stop sending missiles to his Nazi buddies overseas. No one is even doing the thing which I can't type, but you'd sure think they are. (Cool country btw that bans and actively seeks out people for uttering a phrase towards a couple specific people. If I say I hope the cashier at Aldis gets shot for overcharging me... no one really cares.)
Fighting for lower costs for families- oh, so Joe implemented a price freeze? (He didn't- he doesn't care)
Fairer tax system? WHO FUCKING CARES what the fucking tax system is? THE PROBLEM ISNT TAXES THE PROBLEM IS YOU GET NOTHING FOR IT is this so fucking difficult to understand? Like sure make billionaires not exist- if that was your goal THEN SAY IT! But he says make it fairer WHAT THE HOLY COCK FUCK DOES THAT MEAN?! Fairer would be some asshole paying his taxes doesn't have a pothole filled street and has free access to college education and healthcare all for free because they paid taxes. Anything else less than that is bullshit and literally everyone knows it.
Oh speaking of healthcare, "making it more accessible and affordable" oh so you proposed a (when it was top in the world) UK NHS style American NHS/medicare for all thing? No? A public option? No? Expand Medicaid, lower the age for Medicare, force ALL pharmaceutical drugs to be sold only at some x of cost to produce (the actual cost, not theoretical bullshit costs. I mean if a pill is $0.01 to pop out then sell it for $0.05 and sit the fuck down before we just take the entire industry)? Literally anything? "Oh I half-assed something with insulin." Oh cool the drug that is supposed to be patent-free by design of its discoverer? The one you keep allowing to have patents against? Like, fucking Christ man. Why the fuck isn't insulin free, Joe. WHY??? The US gov could literally just buy it from Indian and hand it out and make like 100 less bombs for Israel and no one would know the fucking difference. Fucking Christ.
Fighting to restore reproductive freedom: the motherfucker has not even once proposed a legalization of abortion federally FOR ALL CASES NONE OF THE CARVE OUT BULLSHIT JUST MAKE IT LEGAL FULL STOP. Legal with a doctor's recommendation, bam, done. Even for minors if they so choose. Taking this stance would require Joe to have half a sack, to actually think abortions are valid in the first place- which btw he doesn't believe! The motherfucker isn't pro-choice! He's basically THE WORST possible proponent for abortion. An ancient, white, Catholic man who still talks about abortion like it's an evil crime YEAH NO WONDER HE HASNT [censored] striked the SCOTUS YET. HE AGREES WITH THEM! He can say anything he wants, but he agrees with them otherwise he would've had a bill at least proposed repeatedly over and over and over and over... and over. Tie it with national defense funding, etc. There are ways to play disgusting like republicans do. Fuck you're the president just roll a couple planes over McConnell's house a few times until he calls to ask wtf is going on. Fuck these demonic pieces of shit. Arrest SCOTUS members. Arrest their families. Expand SCOTUS and just force in new ones. Arrest Trump FFS. Send his ass off to gitmo.
The fact that Biden can't be fucked to do even one slightly "oh no, so mean" thing proves the case over and over that he's totally without a sack, doesn't believe the shit he says about Trump and democracy, he actually agrees with them basically or at least doesn't disagree enough to do anything of substance. He's a loser, he's worthless, he's always been a joke, and he always will be a joke. A shitty joke at all of our expense. Fucking loser.
