Emotional investment in the whole left-right divide is irrelevant. It's what's so weird about the past decade of politics. People don't read policy papers or party manifestos, they just turn voting habits into identities. Like vegans do with eating habits. Disagree with X? You must be alignment Y, for this reason alone you are good with me, for I also happen to be alignment Y.


Everything I see from him seems to be corroborated by no one but himself - it's nice for dramatic effect and a more appealing story to have this lone heroic crew investigate "the truth" and unmask "the establishment", but peer-review is how we arrive at the closest approximation of objective truth we can have. And I see very little of that with him - I think they did do a decent story on some teacher smacking students around though that had merit? Good on them.

I don't want america to be ruled by a political machine that dictates arbitrary rules.

Look on the bright side if we get a Biden presidency. Remember all those gaffes? That's going to be him every time he opens his mouth unless they bang him full of drugs every time he appears. At least until he resigns.

Who said anything about appearing? Just call those lids.

It's so bizarre Biden could do what Hillary couldn't. People always talk about how bad she was (probably a bit overblown, but I dunno) but she was functional compared to Biden. I think it's because back in 2016, that was the whole "that's enough!" moment from anyone that wasn't an sjw. Now, we're seeing the left wing retaliate in kind.

For me, this is a positive surprise. I could gloat over you doomers, but instead I'm just gonna tell you guys that it's not gonna be that bad. Biden will be a lame duck that will barely change anything, much like Obama before him. You guys have basically everything to halt anything he tries to do, like control over the courts and control over the house. There's no need to move to another country, no need for anything too drastic, the worst thing would be dealing with some annoyingly smug sjws. Wait till the next four years, and do whatever you can to vote him or Kamala out.

We might have our differences, kiwis, but we're all friends here. I dunno if I'm typing anything coherently here, but for whoever might be feeling stressed from this, just keep going with what you're doing, and you'll get to wherever you need to go. Thanks.

Pretty much. Joe doesn't want to do anything, and McConnel doesn't want him to do anything.

They might find common ground in austerity measures and bombing Iran, at least.

And then it is going to be Kamala, who is probably the least-qualified individual to be President in the last century. It's going to be fucking glorious. No friends, Trump was only the appetizer to the next few Presidential cycles.

I honestly underestimated how wild things would get on and after election day, I don't even know what's true or false anymore

If it's some random dipshit claiming something on Twitter, it's probably BS. If it's someone claiming they did something on Twitter, it's probably BS. As Kiwis, we should be good at spotting trolls, but it's sadly not the case

Obama and Trump go away and play golf, Biden just takes naps.

I'm expecting him to resign ASAP, or be kept away while the machine does it's job and makes odd appearances for shitty speeches.
