But HeS nOt dOiNg aNyThInG!
Well, my complaint is he’s actually not doing enough. Last year he approved drilling on the North Slope, so this news is good to hear, but it’s not nearly enough.
Has any politician done enough?
Does that mean we shouldn't call them out on it and demand more?
Exactly, why stop? Otherwise we dip back into the other direction.
It was a question, not a statement. It doesn’t mean anything.
Its clearly a rhetorical question and therefore a statement. You were saying "no politician does enough" implying it's okay for Biden to do the same.
Or, it was a rhetorical question saying, “no politician does enough, are you surprised Biden is any different?”
I suppose it’s a glass half full/empty, because you most definitely interpreted it wrong.
Nope
Well any politician should actually stop all industrial process, reduce greenhouse gas emissions to zero, make abortive care available to all, complete stop intentional, and never pump another gallon of oil.
Anything less is a compromise with industry or global politics. . Or reality
No I agree, it would be unreasonable to stop all industrial processes, but I do think we can forgo drilling in the arctic which is heating 4 times faster than the rest of the Earth, and already facing climate change impacts like the whole… having to relocate entire communities that have been inundated by rising sea levels, loss of protective landfast sea ice, erosion and flooding (Shishmaref, Chefornak, Newtok, Napakiak, Kotlik, Alakanuk, Kwigillingok, Golovin, Tuntutuliak, and Tununak). Because that’s a part of our current reality as well.

He's not really. The idiot has also approved more oil and drilling leases than Trump.
Also, he supports a literal genocide.
I can name things that he has done. I’d like you to name a few good things that he has done. If you don’t know any, you’re not paying attention and you’re just talking out of your ass.
While America produces record fossil fuels and uses more fossil fuels to ship them overseas so Biden can claim he's a green president...
Actually lol. Truth hurts
It's just annoying people want to pretend shit is great when it's obviously not.
Not only is it an outright lie, the people who believe it don't think it's as bad, so they don't think we have to do more.
Like, telling a kid it's ok when they think a monster is under the bed versus telling a kid to hide under their bed while the house burns down...
Only one of those is a good thing.
