Dang, I just had a FB battle about Candidate Biden

With one guy I know and one I don't. The one I know is a local actor/director who I met and interviewed a year ago, but when he started posting constant Biden rape stories, I had to block him.

But when another actor friend posted a link to a really lame spoof story about Joe wearing a COVID-19 mask with the nose cut out so that he could still sniff womens' hair, I had to speak out.

I could tell that some of my other FB friends thought it was a real story, so I researched it and saw that it came from a (lame) comedy site called the Babylon Bee. I posted a clarification and got flamed by these youngsters about being comedy-deaf. No, I just don't like club-footed conservative comedy.

And they started the rape shit again. So who's their alternative? Do these kids wants Dumpster Diver back in the White House? They may not even know. I've been voting since I placed my ballot against Ray-gun — and these children have maybe voted twice in their lives. So naive.

It's more proof that the Bots are here. I'm afraid they'll buy whatever shit comes down the intertubes. We must be vigilant.

my Sanders supporting sister.

She hates Biden. She thinks he's a rapist.

I don't even try to argue with her.

pushing the "Biden is a serial rapist" bullshit. Pure Repub projection to get the false Biden accusations out there before we bring up the Trump reality.

How anyone would think that Trump would win a character battle on morals is fascinating. What is frightening is how they could get away with it.

Any wholesome, sober person has enough sense to spot crap on sight.

Being a "youngster" is not an excuse or any cover, or any disguise for sociopathic idiots dealing in deliberate lies.

That was the slogan back in the 80s when we were being ravaged by AIDS thanks to Dump's precursor Ronald Ray-Gun.

But then I started doing digital marketing and had to reactive it because FB won't let you work on business accounts unless you're a real person.

They want you to engage. Posting that someone cuts out the nose in a face mask so they can sniff hair? Obvious bait. Try not to take it. It's so not worth it

That's when I noticed my friends were tuned to an entirely different political bubble than me.

I have one friend who has blocked 16 never-biden types. She says, if you won't come out to vote against Trump, she doesn't want to know ya.

They are getting different news than you, laced with more than a little RW talking points. I think the right plans to weaponize Biden's oppo file by peeling off Democrats through Facebook ads based upon specific actions and events in Biden's life. Be prepared to debunk this nonsense.

The Trump zombies will throw the kitchen sink against Biden, but they would do it to anyone. Bernie would be the Communist/Socialist who wants to turn American into the Soviet Union. Warren would be "just like Bernie". All they have are their lies.

Now, we have people running around acting as if a shaky accusation is the same as a guilty verdict. This is ridiculous.

And I waaaayy more believe that Ivanka was raped because of his botched ridiculous hair transplant.

But now they're talking about our candidate raping and letting little boys stroke his legs? It's so fucking obviously ridiculous.

He's served the public for his whole life. He wanted to die when his son died. He's had the same wife who loves him. Sounds like a monster, doesn't it?

God, I hate fucking Pukes, Bots and Russians.
