Comment on Biden discussing the border during the SOTU
Excrubulent@slrpnk.net 1 year agoSo let me get this straight… Biden is slowly moving away from his sponsoring of gneocide, which you have acknowledged he is doing, and your only real defense of him is that he is marginally, strategically better than the other guy?
It sounds like you agree with what I’m saying because you just restated it, except with the addition that you somehow psychically determined that I am fine with Trump, even though I explicitly said he was an overt fascist and even worse.
Did you think that was an argument? Or did you just read my comment and think, “Hey, that’s describing me! It’s my time to shine!”

Did you read someone else's comment and mistakenly think it was mine? No. Biden is orders of magnitude better than Trump. If I didn't make that clear enough in what I said, then a quick recap:
No, he's not marginally better. I actually am irritated that the magnitude of absolutely bonkers attacks on Biden is making me come to his defense, because I don't really like the establishment Democrats all that much, but in case it wasn't clear, no the difference is fucking anything but marginal.

If you don’t like defending them, then fucking don’t. It doesn’t take much to admit that you should probably vote for them, and that’s all you really need to do with them. They’re not your friends, stop acting like anything they do is good. He is literally boasting about his tough border policy, which by the way has some absolutely horrific ongoing consequences to this day at the border. The gross mistreatment of legal asylum seekers goes on to this day, you just don’t hear about it because the republicans don’t give a shit and the dems know it would look bad to yell about it when it’s their guy in office.
Everything you named has a nice-sounding marketable title, but on closer inspection to just about anything they do I’ve found it’s always bare-minimum perfomative change at the absolute best. It is pure spin.
I do not understand why you would agree that they suck but not want anybody to criticise them. Biden could end military support for Israel tomorrow and basically cinch the election. He won’t do it, and maybe that means Trump will win. I don’t know why you wouldn’t want people to talk about that.

Quick question: What's eighteen plus thirty-six? How many letter "i"s were there in my previous sentence? Please, I am doing my homework, and I thought maybe you could help me with it a little.
I am eager to talk more about how much I agree that "they" suck but I just need to know that first.
