Current Events > I'm glad we were able to specify what Trump and Biden were campaigning on

(+) Yeah! (+)

Good job guys. That was a very educational topic with some great discussion from the TC.

Watch him come to this topic and defend himself for posting in bad faith.

The one where the TC did the 'same thing : both sides' clownery and then ignored the post that clearly showed the VAST difference between Biden's and Trump's agenda. He then closed the topic without ever even addressing that post. It was some pathetic shit.

Also, can that other dude stop trying to make "Slug Virus" a thing? It's not a thing.

And this is unfortunately enough for a certain subset of voting population.

a worryingly large subset lmao. These people will call Trumps trials a witch-hunt, and then without a hint of awareness call for Trump to lock up his enemies and DESTROY THE WOKE

Dont forget claiming they were there for an honest discussion but changed their mind after being insulted.

Then instead of walking away doubled and tripled down on that, because they knew what they were doing from the start and got the reaction they were looking for.

I wish I had the money to buy the site myself, because Id immediately make some rather good changes to the moderation policy so topics (and users) like that could be nipped in the bud early.

Either Biden is terrible at messaging or some of these are made up because I feel like I've barely heard of any of them. And how many are also things that he'd "like to" do that have no actual chance of passing in Congress?

It all sounds good, though I wish some of it would go further. Legalize it, be more aggressive with our net zero goals, etc

A. If the media refuses to talk about it and instead wants to talk about how he's old and dementia riddled and is going to die next week for sure, there's not much he can do about it.

B. Look at the topics on here about those things. They immediately devolve into people complaining that it's not good enough or that it should be more or that it's technically not a good thing, or now the go-to is to pivot to Israel Palestine to deflect away from any good hes done.

Many of those things probably dont come up in either the news or around here. Only the big stuff is discussed. Being president is a full time job after all, and I assume it mostly involves signing off on mundane things that get little to no media coverage all the time.

@SecretBase

Just wanted to remind you the differences, since you still seem to not understand based on the posts ive seen today.

Secretbase is just yet another in the endless revolving door of "enlightened centrist" alts.

Early 2000's account with 700 karma? Yeah, I'm sure he's posting his both sides garbage in good faith.

Also, I always vote for the party that needs massive amounts of obfuscation to merely look incompetent, riddled with criminals, and openly pushing fascist ideology.

The worst part of all this? Based on Secretbase's posting style, there's a nonzero chance that he's actually a sitting Republican US Congressman.

TC being one of the freshman chuds would be hilarious.
