US Joe Biden News Megathread - The Other Biden Derangement Syndrome Thread (with a side order of Fauci Derangement Syndrome)

Let's pretend for one moment that he does die before the election, just for the funsies. What happens then? Will the nomination revert to option number 2, aka Bernie Sanders? Or will his running mate automatically replace him just the way Vice-President is supposted to step in after the Big Man in the White House chokes on a piece of matzo? Does he even have a running mate yet?

I don't think Hillary Clinton is "progressive," rather a classic liberal. That I respect about her.

Clinton's Big Corporate. Not a liberal at all. Remember, this same woman spoke against gay rights as late as 90s, and only switched once the the DNC's plank became socially progressive.

I'm pretty sure she was anti-gay even during her presidental run in 08.

What does gay rights have to do with "corporate?"

Oh yes, the classical liberal who pushed for late-term abortion. Such a free thinker.

 

[Hollywood Hitler]

And Pelosi
And De Blasio
And the pope
And Mario

Do not be fooled their cries of "MAMMA MIA! IT'S ANNUDA POMPEII-A!"

And let's not forget that they stole the election by taping up pizza boxes so nobody can see them fortify the election.

What does gay rights have to do with "corporate?"

Nothing. It's just a fact that she'd be more at home with the current Blue Dogs, in terms of social policy and economics. There's nothing liberal about her; it's a facade at best. What she IS known for, is sucking big corporate cock and having extremely wealthy donors backing her. And that's how she is perceived by most people these days.

I'd have to look it up but I believe James Lindsey mentioned that Hillary's college mentor or advisor was a student of Marcuse, so I'm guessing she's been a Marxist or Marxist leaning for a long time.

 

[The Last Stand]

I don't believe that they would vote for a right candidate but I do believe that they will just stay home, which is half as damaging. I'm predicting we see a lot of Ridin wit' Biden just stay home in 2022, and then CNN/MSNBC will scream about "voter suppression." I think that's the big reason why they are pushing "voter suppression" so hard right now; they see the writing on the wall that a lot of Dems are going to just stay home in 2022, even more so than a usual midterm like 2018.

"Voter suppression" is one of the biggest half-truths I've heard in my life. There's no "voter suppression," it's just a lesser voter TURNOUT because Biden is that divisive as a president, even before the 2020 election. There are several cities that have stayed Blue for decades with no notable policy change.

now that zoomers are pretty old, 22 tops, what do we call the next generation?

 

[Non-breath oblige]

I spend a fair amount of time listening to progressive talk radio. They legitimately believe that if a progressive runs, the people who have voted conservative their entire lives will become hard left progressives once they understand what progressivism stands for.

The reason the moderate Democrats lose in those districts is not because they’re too far left, but because they aren’t sufficiently left enough and the moderates conservatism suppresses the vote.

At no point does it occur to them that people living in the middle of the woods in West Virginia don’t share the same values as folks who reside in Manhattan.

One thing I’ve realized about progressives is that they are dogmatic in their beliefs. There is but one correct worldview and it is theirs. Any opposing beliefs are misguided and once people are exposed to the gospel of progressivism, they too will become progressive. There’s not a lot of self introspection going on there.

110% this, and if their progressive candidate loses in the elections, then it's everyone else that is misguided, not them.

"Fuck them rural white people hicks and their white dumb Christian beliefs!" "Hey wait do they hate us? Grrr, it must be white supremacy! Must shame and virtue signal harder!" Literal definition of insanity. Every thought is in binary monoliths. All white people bad, all not-white people good, all rich people bad, all poor people good, all business suit people bad, all scientists good.

She was a Goldwater Republican (aka "far-right," before the term was bureaucratized).

I'll accede to Russia treating sovereign nations on its periphery as its property because Russia is bigger and stronker than they are just as soon as everyone else accedes to the US doing the same for the same reasons

I'm not gonna be holding my breath waiting

Let's not pretend that the glowies haven't spent the last 80 years subverting Latin American governments that go against what the US wants.

Indeed, and that's most likely why NATO hasn't admitted the Ukraine as a member so far.

But Russia is also to blame. They gave Ukraine security guarantees in exchange for the former Soviet nukes on Ukrainian soil. We can see how well that's gone. Perhaps if Putin lived up to what Yeltsin worked out and left the Ukraine alone everything would have been just fine.

In an ideal world Eastern Europe would be neutral and wouldn't be part of this new Great Game the West seems set on playing. Unfortunately this isn't an ideal world and we seem bent on surrounding Russia with Western allies, so it's understandable why the Russians see that as a threat and want their own allies in the region.

Imagine how the media in America would react if Mexico said it wanted to become a Russian (or even better, a Chinese) ally and would let Russia put nukes and base troops on its soil. Then ask yourself why you have a problem with the Russians feeling the same about the Ukraine.

These the ones who were on a hunger strike?

Nah, that was these guys.

So, with that slew of fortification voting rights bills dead, are there any indications being made yet about what Biden and the Democrats are going to do next legislatively?

I don't think they have anything after this. They only had a years worth of plans it seems.

Also struck that we would never get Biden's Memoirs about his presidency.

Which brings up a question I've asked many many times before.

With Snopes being used as a Credibility Sink by the left (1000 people saying "no that's wrong" doesn't have the impact of a 1000 people pointing to an "accredited fact checker") -- why hasn't the right done the exact same thing? Create something neutral sounding (don't call it PatriotFacts or something jfc) and debunk the left's lies. Then the right can point at it and go "No, fact checkers say that Biden actually DID shit his pants in front of the pope. See?"

Kotick has a severance clause that includes 5 years of pay + a golden parachute in the 8 figures range. They literally can't afford to fire him.

That being said, when the deal is done, Kotick is out. He will remain CEO of AB until the ink is dry then will be unemployed.


If Trump can get 1 or 2 more judicial appointments... Dear god, all sins would be forgiven. He'd need to choose an Arch-Conservative, though. Something so far to the right that the left has to think up sputtering new indignities to describe them.

Start a Freedombox and operate on a small scale. Defense in depth. They shut one node down, switch to secondaries.

The next generation is known as Generation Alpha.

Back in the bubble, the proto-progressives in liberal spaces explained that the only reason the left EVER lost an election was because the right cheated... which meant it was ok to be a liiiiittle shady with tactics here and there, right? This is how you got stuff like ballot harvesting and the like, because "well they'd vote for us anyway except the GOP illegally makes it hard to vote, so we're just helping them vote to counteract the GOP's scheme."

They literally thought that something like 90% of the country agreed with the left except for a vanishingly small number of literal hitlers in some nebulous "flyover state" region and they only won elections because the GOP literally prevented non-hitlers from voting.

Because Wikipedia, Snopes and the AP would call it a far-right conspiracy theory site, Facebook would block links to it, and so the only people that would read it would already be on the right making it a completely pointless exercise.

After she literally works her husband to death I'm sure Ms. Biden will have some Memoirs written up. A nice loud sob story about how the stress of fighting the evil Trumpnazis killed Saint Biden the Thoughtless.
