Election Shenanigans

You said, and I quote, "I've never heard a single person say they're the progressive candidates."  Since you didn't specify what the contraction "they're" referenced, the reader naturally assumes that it references the object of the sentence, which is "person".  In this light, it is perfectly reasonable for the reader to infer that you meant Joe and Kamala.  Don't expect others to be able to read your mind, and check your diction before you click "Create post" to avoid this scenario in the future.

According to GovTrack.us, Kamala Harris was ranked most liberal compared to all senators in 2019.  Sorry in advance if you think GovTrack.us is "political propaganda".  I think doomro's point in saying Biden and Harris are the progressive candidates was that it's how they are presenting their campaign.  He never said voters and real people are walking around calling them progressive.

Also, this thread is in the off topic forum, and it's literally a political thread, so I'm not sure why your panties are all twisted.

Yeah, the guy who put lots of black people in jail and broke many families talks about "racial justice" and how sad he is about George Floyd when he probably indirectly contributed to his death. The guy who gave more funding to the police and prisons. HE is somehow going to make things better between white Americans and other ethnic groups. He hurt minorities in your country a lot more than Trump ever did. This man won't give you SHIT and it will be funny to see him stab you in the back. If there was substantial voter fraud, THIS is who they did it for. The fact that the Democratic Party endorsed and supported this man to the death shows they have no principles and don't actually care.



Consider one moment in Biden’s career: In 1989, at the height of punitive anti-drug and mass incarceration politics, Biden, then a senator, went on national television to criticize a plan from President George H.W. Bush to escalate the war on drugs. The plan, Biden said, didn’t go far enough.

“Quite frankly, the president’s plan is not tough enough, bold enough, or imaginative enough to meet the crisis at hand,” he said. He called not just for harsher punishments for drug dealers but to “hold every drug user accountable.” Bush’s plan, Biden added, “doesn’t include enough police officers to catch the violent thugs, not enough prosecutors to convict them, not enough judges to sentence them, and not enough prison cells to put them away for a long time” — a direct call for more incarceration.

Just ask most of his voters who said this, Trump or Biden.

Big congrats to all the trump supporters who are taking this L so well.

Chaos reigns..?

We live in interesting times.

Yup right now I'm mostly concerned economically. There's still the time before Inauguration Day to see how this most especially important election will really end up though. Heh..

heheh

I'm glad Trump lost, he was too ridiculous for his position, and got even more insane since he got cured of COVID. As for Biden, I can tell you coming from the Doomworld community, nobody likes him or expects that much of him either. It's too bad that Americans don't have a third, grassroot party to shake things up if the second, moderate party is too stale and corrupt to be any better than the first, nationalist populist party.

lol, also grassroots movements just end up getting infiltrated, hijacked and subverted anyway..





And then there's the tech giants covering up the contents of Hunter Biden's laptop that show more corrupt business dealings alongside raw footage of Hunter having sex with Chinese minors and snorting coke off their backsides as well as the fact that allegations against him may have been knowingly sit upon by the FBI and "president elect" Biden himself but that's obviously "no indication that it was his laptop and is a deboonked nothingburger" according to reddit. I've seen some of the footage but I'm not including a citation obviously cuz it's illegal content.

Also; Twitter and Facebook really do need some kind of forced overhaul or just outright dismantled for banning people who share stories during voting period for going against their narrative, for hiding information, messing with algorithms... I wouldn't know where to start tho, but I shouldn't have to spell out how bad it is for one side (the side that's canceling and destroying people's lives for even standing in their way) to have complete power to control or halt the flow of information on the internet or even being allowed to openly take steps towards being able to accomplish this because they think they have the higher moral ground.. people in first world countries might be able to survive corrupt tech giants, Trump will obviously be able to move on; but countries that are transitioning towards communism or are dangerously close to being taken over by China it's gonna be the final nail in the coffin for us. I fucking despise the state of the world right now.

I too recently got fucked by the Chinese, so I can sympathize.
