How? This tweet has been trending all day long. Fuck me. Biden is as bad as Hitler now? I truly do not understand how someone can be so ungodly arrogant while spouting one of the most ignorant takes possibly ever written. The comments are somehow even worse.
We are a nation full of genuine, unadulterated, dishonest morons who appear to have the inability to think like a rational person. I can only hope that semi-rational, apolitical independent voters outweigh whatever brand of voters this is, because if not Then fuck.
I'd also like to personally say "fuck you" to Cornel West, Jill Stein, Claudia de la Cruz, etc. for encouraging this brain dead sentiment by refusing to step aside, endorse Biden/democrats, and put the country before your personal grievances.

(878 posts)Because I fear that I'm seeing a repeat of 2015/2016-era "bothsiderism" propaganda almost the exact same talking points.
Thankfully, I do not think a lot of these people will vote (which can be good or bad depending on how you look at it). But those who do, will likely vote for a 3rd party candidate. If there enough, then the election results may be similar to 2016's where Stein received more than the margin in crucial states.
We cannot afford another Trump victory. I will do everything I can to help get Biden and Dems elected but I cannot control what other people do or what (dis)information they fall for, and I do not have high confidence in a lot of Americans.
More venting, I guess. Ha. I think Biden has a 55/45 - 60/40 chance of winning, but still
it's going to be a very, very difficult road ahead of us.

(10,777 posts)They are malignant narcissists who are more concerned about garnering attention for themselves than they are with any political cause or outcome.
No matter what we do, people like that will always find fault and move the goal posts. They are literally Lucy with the football.
They are best ignored.
