History, procedure, common sense, and logic all said that was what was going to happen. They didn’t cancel the primaries. They never started the primaries. A lot of states started holding primaries assuming the incumbent wasn’t running again. But that was never the case. Biden never said that he was only going to run the one time and not again. People in his orbit discussed that he might do that. But that was nothing that he said or that they ever committed to.

You and I are welcome to believe this what he should have done. But historically if an incumbent decides to run for another Term. No party ever Has primaried them. We can criticize Biden on not telegraphing that well enough. That’s fair. We can absolutely criticized Biden on things like that. But policy-wise and as far as his administration goes. He’s been fairly popular and consequential. Despite the one really big issue which seems to be all people want to talk about ignoring the fascist in the room.

If all debates for like that one. I would not miss a single debate. He cut through the b******* and got straight to the answers or not answers as the case may be. Which is what a debate moderator should do. A debate moderator is not intended to be a personified a cue card. The Talking Heads at CNN failed even harder than I ever thought they could with their moderation.

From the founding of the ideology through at least the first 100 years it kind of did. I think the basic fact that the man who coined the phrase and founded the ideology. Fought against the kind of people who pretend to be libertarian today. He literally participated in the French revolution. And we have economic liberals today making up thought terminating cliches and tripe like the non-aggression principle to protect wealthy thieves. Calling themselves right wing Libertarians it’s a joke.

Absolutely. Though to be fair most people who call themselves Libertarians aren’t regardless.

That should be enough to worry anybody.

First that’s not how astroturfing works. Everyone repeating it isn’t being paid to or a bot. Just useful tools. Second I never accused anyone of being Bots Etc. This all comes off as deflection and ignoring what was actually said. Regardless. This deflection illustrates your awareness of it. Despite you’re unwillingness to acknowledge it.

I’ve never been allusioned with Biden. There was only one Democrat I liked less than him in the 2019 primaries. It was quite a surprise that he far exceeded my low expectations. But he did. Still we are talking fascists, literal fascist. Who’ve already attempted to overthrow the government once. With a literal fucking plan on how to end democracy when they regain power. How are we so focused on the runner-up in a shitty person contest? There is a reason. And no, you will not acknowledge it.

They’re talking storage speed and security.

Specifically the on Sim storage and security.

There’s a shit storm of astroturfed anti Biden sentiment. You know this, everyone knows this. Knowing that, you should know that there aren’t enough hours in the day to eloquently frame and debate the benefits of Biden. To people who most likely aren’t even listening. At a base level, Trump WILL be worse on all issues. It’s a fact. And if Biden doesn’t win. Trump WILL. Also a fact.

It’s not a great argument. But it’s the only argument necessary. The fact that you act wounded or surprised by this seems very disingenuous. Why are others obliged to spend their time explaining public knowledge to you? Not to knock those that do just that. It is important after all. But where’s the entitlement coming from.

Wrong as always. There’s always consequences. Whether or not you and I think they are worth it. Doesn’t matter. Someone else will make that calculation for themselves.

For better or for worse, a lot of donors and fundraisers would abandon him. And if you think them abandoning long time substantial supporters. To chase fickle ideologues is a winning strategy that they should focus on. You’re crazier than advertised. There’s a very good reason they don’t generally Court the votes of leftists like us. A huge portion of us don’t know what solidarity, or strategy is. And will abandon them distracted at the first opportunity. We can at best make up a winning margin in some circumstances. But are not enough for them count on to win regularly. And yet. Many of us still act childishly entitled. Further cementing them not supporting us.

Also not that it should need pointing out. But when Biden was presumptuous enough to even delay the shipment of weapons recently. Both Republicans and Netanyahu together attacked him and act like he done something horrific. Many Democrats support wavering as well as there are far too many zionists among them. Now counting the man who primaried Jamal Bowman.

Biden couldn’t veto anything related to Israel if he wanted to. All Republicans and enough Democrats would vote to override it instantly. Because Congress is the problem. But sure, continue to waste effort and be counterproductive.

Yes we absolutely need plenty of immigration. The American population has been below replacement on birth rates since the 1970s. With the Boomers going down it’s going to hit the fan real soon but all they want to do is restrict immigrants.

The 4th estate is a wholly owned subsidiary of fascist inc these days. And facts don’t sell. Just rage.

There was a whole family named after a cheese. The Munsters.

They’re keeping their powder dry when they all swing hard right for the most consequential ruling. So everyone can say but look we were reasonable on all these other things that wouldn’t have ever really impacted you.

Check the candidate debate. It was a clown show. Not the moderators though. They were kings. But the candidates all were fucking clown shoes. Apart from the token that seemed sincere but wouldn’t fly with the racist base. Somehow Bobo seriously came out looking the better of the group while still being visually white enough. Had it been a skit on veep or some other show it would have been hilarious. I just hope the democrat candidate can win against her this time. They got close last time.

Bowman was the better candidate. No doubt. But he isn’t without fault. Many in the district had legitimate complaints about his focus. Not even pertaining to Israel. It’s a shame so many people when feeling let down by representation can gravitate to worse candidates. Simply because they’re someone else. And not a better candidate.

It’s not a very good meme. But Trofim Lysenko exists. And absolutely is the reason many starved under the fledgling ML countries. And is keenly emblematic of the flaws of Marxist Leninism and their hamfisted nuanceless interpretation of the dictatorship of the proletariat.

Reading comprehension, you don’t have it. Bye Felecia.

And your petulant childish behavior is without bounds. Listen I’ve never once questioned your commitment or political alignment. Yes I’ve commented how you behavior is childish. Which it is and that’s one thing. But I’ve never questioned your intent. Just the efficacy of it. And you’ve proven over and over again by impuning upon my commitment calling myself and others no true lefty. Because we disagree with you. You could not be displaying anymore petulant childish behavior.

Even your last response here was completely disingenuous purposely missing the point. Yes they f***** themselves over with trump. But on the regular they actually get things accomplished. Whereas people like yourself who constantly harp on others, denying their identities. Are the exact reason why people in general don’t take the left very seriously and why the left as a group struggles to get anything accomplished. Have fun with your Purity tests.

LOL such bad reasoning. I’m not fond of much of what they’ve done but I’ll give them this much they’ve actually accomplished things where people with your mentality haven’t. Good luck with that:-)
