UHOH!
Somebody forgot to write a 1,000,000 word essay on how Republicans are worse then democrats before submitring one morsel of criticism against the Democratic party. Thus you are a secret Republican Russian.
No you don't get to ask for Ranked Choice voting to solve the spoiler effect. The spoiler effect must hover over your head every time you're in the voting booth. THIS. IS. DEMOCRACY. MANIFEST!
I see you left the voting booth without a big enough smile, it will be 10000% entirely your fault if the democrats weak willed attempts don't work out.
No you don't get to have any input. Taxation without representation is how this country was founded silly. This is just how it works here. Maybe when you grow up, you will realize the real adults, the real americans are the only ones responsible enough to control the nation until their last gasp on this planet. Of course it is right to continue shifting the Overton window to the right! This is reality sweetheart, maybe you're just a idealistic dreamer with to high of expectations.
Now smile really REALLY big and say "Joe Biden is the most pro-union president in American history" 20 times in the mirror before you go to work your 3 part time jobs.

He's the most pro-union President in my lifetime. Which is to say he's not aggressively sabotaging and dismantling every union group his national police agencies can get their hooks into.
This is the gold standard for a modern Democratic President. A guy who won't show up with a crowbar and knee-cap you as you're trying to move 40 years of accumulated economic baggage.
....
I could believe you're under 24 and missed Bill, but you weren't born till 2016 and missed Obama too?
Ask the AFL-CIO how they feel about Clinton continuing NAFTA after explicitly campaigning against it.
Deindustrialization of the Midwest obliterated manufacturing. Telecom consolidation under the 1996 act also wrecked unionization in both the industrial and mass media sectors.
Why did you skip Obama and go straight to Bill?
How is Biden more pro-union than Obama?
Tom Perez sucked ass and I shouldn't need to spell that out.
But...
https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tom_Perez
Biden promoted him?
So how does that make Biden better if he's why you didn't like Obama?
Good point. Biden also very disappointing
So you had no reason to say:
Because it sounds like there wasn't a reason, but I'm not sure why it took so many comments to get here.
I had not realized Biden had reappointed Perez to his office.
You clearly knew something about Biden's record on labor policy that I didn't.
Happy to help.
If you want to help Biden. Drag him so far to the left that he joins his voter base
I'll pass your advice on to the student protesters at Columbia.
Why would they need it?
They're doing a shit ton more than I am to draw attention
Not a lot else to do in NYPD lockup.
The NY Dem political scene does not seem to be bending in their direction. Police raided a seder while local media has accused the attendees of being anti-Semitic. Seems they're moving backwards.
...
I thought it was clear I meant the protestors knew, because they obviously get it.
I don't know how you thought I meant NY neoliberals in office were in any way what the voter base works
If I vote for the correct candidate, do I get a succulent chinese meal?
Only a limp penis.
I dunno but we were promised Taco trucks on every corner and that never happened so I find the rest awfully suspect
Given that OP constantly concern trolls how awful biden is, id say that criticism of them wouldnt be out of line. There is a rather large contingent on the internet, and here on lemmy in particular, out to spread FUD to demoralize the american populace in hopes of discouraging them from voting. With that in mind, and considering the same profiles spread the same nearly exclusively anti-biden propaganda, and the same exact ones jump in to the others defense... methinks the lady doth protest too much.
You're privileged because you won't be murdered if we lose this election. You'll only be murdered slowly over 30 years, along with everyone you love.
Everyone was already murdered in 2016 and the Republicans did Genocide + nuclear world war 3. How can they possibly do that again if we are already dead?
Democrats will send guns and bombs over there to do genocide somewhere else.
Republicans will bring those guns and bombs back home and use them on us.
So we have to support the Democrats.
Hell yeah other people should be murdered for our refusal to choose an actual left wing candidate!
Throw some more brown people on the pile! Imagine if white people were killed, the horror! Imagine of course because just like 2016 it probably won't happen, so let's make sure real brown people will actually get killed!
Literally go down to the Texas/Mexico border right the fuck now and say that again.
You know that people disagreeing with you is allowed, right?
You say what you think, they say what they think, people read both. It's how it's supposed to work.
Downvote this heresy
