I started to title this thread something like BETTER Biden, as an alternative to the more negative concept of "never" Biden.

As in, we (who still have SOME sense of decency and integrity... who haven't been sucked into the alternate reality shitshow of Trump/Fox/GOP'S ... aka TRUMP & CO'S lies, distortions, and agendas of HATE) had BETTER wake the fuck up!

But I decided, to title it JOE BIDEN. Because surely, by NOW, with Trump's increasingly malevolently sociopathic pronouncements and authoritarian power grabs and edicts, the stakes should be fkn CLEAR ENOUGH, one would think, to not require any embellishment other than the name of the man who may be our last chance at saving our DEMOCRACY.

Trump & Co. HATE us. Their efforts to push us by force out of coronavirus safe practices, at GREAT RISK to those most vulnerable, most at risk, make that QUITE evident, if it wasn't evident BEFORE.

PAST TIME we be as EQUALLY passionate, in OUR opposition to all that THEY stand for.

Passionate? I've always been passionate enough to vote (and to march in the streets on occasion) but I will still have to hold my nose and vote for Joe same as I did for John Kerry and Hillary Clinton: they voted for the war in Iraq for which there is no excuse.

I will not forget or forgive.

Over fifty scientists from various disciplines and climate experts endorse Biden

According to an open letter found through Axios a number of Nobel Laureates, academics, lead authors of reports to the IPCC, members of the National Academies of the Sciences, Engineering, and Medicine, and more have come forward on the week of the 50th Earth Day to say that Joe Biden knows his stuff.

They praise him as Senator in 1986 for introducing one of the first ever climate change bills. They feel confident that given his history of supporting science and climate change efforts in both the Senate and during the Obama/Biden administration that he will listen to the scientific community and lead on climate change and reverse the disastrous policies of Donald “Jenius” Trump.

Another day, another group of intelligent people backing our Democratic nominee.

That would be a very interesting pick, I think. Too bad Mrs. O isn't interested. Also Elizabeth Warren and Stacey Abrams Stacey Abrams slams Georgia governor over decision to reopen businesses this week

Joe Biden Prioritizes Empathy in Scorching Trump Takedown | Vanity Fair

Throughout his political career, former Vice President Joe Biden has often been referred to as the nation's consoler-in-chief. Now, as the coronavirus pandemic continues to incapacitate American life, the presumptive Democratic presidential nominee has sought to juxtapose his compassion with ... Donald Trump’s public displays of calousness.

On Tuesday, James Corden asked Biden what he thought of Trump's marathon press briefings, which often devolve into petty name-calling and abdications of responsibility. Biden told the Late Late Show host that he’s frustrated by [Trump's] attitude.

“The frustration is, he's leaving so many people behind. Look at all the first responders. Look at all the people who are putting themselves in harm's way. Literally, they're risking their lives, and some are losing their lives. ... What I focus on is, look at the damage being done to so many families that wouldn't have to be done if we had just taken action and prepared,” Biden said. “Or, even if he didn't know how to prepare, if once it became to clear to him, if he stopped slow motioning everything."
.
“What I get frustrated about is when I look at him up there going through his antics about him, it's always about him, is what all the people are getting hurt—and some of them are dying.”
.
As if to further illustrate the difference between himself and Trump, Biden concluded the interview with an outpouring of emotion after discussing his children.

“There are a lot of heroes out there, who have been through a hell of a lot more than I've gone through and they have to get up every single solitary morning and put one foot in front of the other. They have nobody, but they do it,” Biden said after showing a photo of his sons, Hunter and Beau. “I just marvel at the soul of this country. I really do.”

Was that a spelling mistake? Or does that say as per leftist rules?
Why aren't memes allowed anymore?
Yes, it was a spelling mistake ... I didn't make up the rules, I just read them. Check them out at the beginning of the politics forum if you have any questions.

Authoritarians are removing the fun from this website, It's a bit sad that this section is becoming a leftist echo chamber, there is no point coming here, you all repeat the narratives given to you by the leftist media, there is no debate, might as well just listen to CNN to know exactly what you believe.

Whoever made the decision to ban pictures with words on them, you are in the process of eliminating diversity of thought from the website.

I'm genuinely shocked and disgusted that you aren't self aware enough to realise that you are implementing fascist control tactics here.

Memes are the laziest form of political discourse.

They are extremely effective and clever at conveying a message that can be quickly understood.
The real reason that they were banned is because the left can't meme and their arguments can be destroyed with a few images with words printed on them by those with opposing ideas.
I kind of miss the time when left leaning people were actual liberals focused on liberty, not the authoritarian, control freaks you see today.

So really absent your disallowed meme you're just here to whine?

Isn't Biden just a place holder for Hillary Clinton?
It's sad to watch the poor old geriatric fall deeper into senility each week, he can barely communicate any more. Why doesn't he just retire and enjoy the millions he earned from decades of pay for play scams.

You know Joe Biden may stutter and misspeak on occasion. But he would never tell us to swallow or inject disinfection or put a light bulb up our asses. He has empathy and concern for other human beings. I pick Joe.

Memes are no longer allowed in the politics forum as per letest rules.

awwwww... you told him.

MEANWHILE:

Biden assembling White House transition team | TheHill

Former Vice President Joe Biden said Thursday that he’s begun assembling a White House transition team so he’ll be able to staff up quickly in the event that he defeats ... Trump in the 2020 election.

“I promise you that has already begun,” Biden said. “Sounds presumptuous. I don’t want to say we started thinking about it a month ago, we did, because that sounds like I was certain this was going to happen that I would be the nominee. I don’t want it to sound like that, but it has to happen and that’s why the transition team is already being put together.”


The transition team will play a role in guiding Biden’s appointments to his Cabinet and to lead the government agencies.

... Biden said that he’s considering elevating several White House offices to Cabinet-level positions, singling out the Office of Science and Technology Policy, a global health security pandemic office and a potential climate change-focused role that “goes beyond the EPA.”

The former vice president said he might announce some of his Cabinet level picks before the election, and that he would take the advice given to him by former President Obama to surround himself with people who “know more than you know.”


Which would be a welcome relief since Trump HATES people who know more than HE knows (or THINKS he knows).

I've seen left leaning authoritarians here follow the same path from socialism>communism>fascism.
Socialism has always failed and ends up with some despotic regime that needs to crush dissent and criticism of their failing ideology.

Fascist regimes burnt books with the wrong ideas, now we see a phenomenon called bit-burning where ideas on the internet that do not conform to the "right" ideas are removed, censored, their authors are banned or worse, depersoned.

Look at what you have become, all in the name of fighting the "alt-right", "white supremicists", or what ever "virtuous" actions you believe make you a good person.

You should just embrace the label "fascist" if you think authoritarianism is the solution to the world's problems..
