Biden: The American people need a message of hope in these dark times

The American people: goddamn it you senile bastard we needed an action plan not platitudes

"Something I hope we can do no matter who you voted for is see each other not as adversaries but as fellow Americans, Bring down the temperature."

No. Human rights aren't a disagreement. We can disagree on whether or not we enjoyed a movie or on what pizza toppings we prefer. But if the disagreement is that you want to kill me or people I care about, you are, by definition, my adversary.

Rich dems and republicans, we’re all friends you see. We only differ in the degree of our ideology. We’re not actually opposed. We’ll all be fine. In fact we’re all going to the country club for a round of golf and some champagne later today. You poor suckers are screwed as always, but that’s life.

[–] RememberTheApollo_@lemmy.world 14 points 5 hours ago

You’ll be dead before you see the full fallout of this disaster.

[–] yrmp@lemmy.world 9 points 5 hours ago

lol.

lmao even.

This spineless fuck will be remembered for 1 thing and 1 thing only. Being the useless cunt that sat back and allowed Trump to walk right back in to the Whitehouse.

[–] capital@lemmy.world 14 points 4 hours ago

I think that may have been up to voters. And we fucked it.

[–] coffee_with_cream@sh.itjust.works 4 points 3 hours ago (1 children)

Are you suggesting he refuses to transfer power?

[–] humanspiral@lemmy.ca 1 points 2 hours ago (1 children)

Either the charges of treason/insurection are true, and the corruption of delays until after election needs to be corrected, or Trump should have been in military jail waiting trial back in 2021 are true, or DNC just wants the most loyal zionist to finish the job of genocide.

[–] Resand@lemmy.world 1 points 2 hours ago (1 children)

There's no law stopping someone in jail from being President. You can't vote, but you can be elected still

[–] humanspiral@lemmy.ca 2 points 1 hour ago

When in jail, it is no longer advantageous to corrupt the justice system with delays. You also don't get the corrupt privilege of facing a judge you appointed, when tried under military system.

"The American Experiment" amazing how full of shit this thinking is, basically american exceptionalism

bases the government on historical examples

pretends they invented the idea

I mean, it's a pretty American thing to do.

[–] 4grams@awful.systems 62 points 9 hours ago (1 children)

"The American experiment endures,"

I would say it just failed. I'm sorry but a system that elects a rapist, a 34 times convicted felon, one who defrauds students, cages children, takes away human rights, praises nazi's and dictators, and this was just the first term. I'm sorry but by any metric I care to meaure it by this is a failed experiment.

[–] PriorityMotif@lemmy.world 7 points 3 hours ago (1 children)

You forgot about the millions of people that died because of his Covid response

[–] 4grams@awful.systems 2 points 3 hours ago

Right, I barely scratched the surface.

[–] scarabic@lemmy.world 24 points 9 hours ago (3 children)

Guy surrendering power says it’s gonna be okay.

Guy taking power says we’re coming for you motherfuckers. Hm, who to believe?

[–] humanspiral@lemmy.ca 1 points 2 hours ago

The people who say its all ok will be spared, motherfucker... they hope.

[–] capital@lemmy.world 2 points 4 hours ago

No, it’s fine. We don’t do lesser evilism here so it’s fine. /s

[–] thisphuckinguy@lemmy.world 2 points 5 hours ago

Yeah, no kidding.

[–] aesthelete@lemmy.world 11 points 7 hours ago* (last edited 7 hours ago)

The "American experiment" as far as I am aware is one of "self-governance".

It arguably has never been tried in earnest since the founding of this country, at very least failed entirely in 2016 with Russia's influence and the zero consequences that arose from that, and was likely dealt a critical blow by the citizens united decision which all but guaranteed that rich people would decide our elections for us in the future.

We voted ourselves into what I'm now pretty convinced is an unshakable oligarchy. You'll get what the rich, international oligarchs want you to have and nothing else. They've built bunkers in New Zealand and the Ozarks for when the consequences come knocking at their doors.

Why didn’t you prosecute any treasonous criminals? Useless coward.

[–] pjwestin@lemmy.world 3 points 6 hours ago

I was about to downvote until I saw the community.

[–] CanadaPlus@lemmy.sdf.org 11 points 8 hours ago* (last edited 5 hours ago)

Press X to doubt.

I really can't understand the level of "history is over, here" most of the West seems to be on. It's a delusion that has to break down eventually, but apparently we're not there yet.

[–] Buttflapper@lemmy.world 12 points 8 hours ago (1 children)

Joe Biden will be fine. He could care less.

[–] CanadaPlus@lemmy.sdf.org 12 points 8 hours ago (1 children)

I mean, maybe. I'm calling it that at least one Democratic party figure will get gotten in a show trial.

Jack Smith, James or Merchan

[–] n1ck_n4m3@lemmy.world 38 points 11 hours ago

Fuck off Biden, now's the time to use that presidential immunity you just got to attack enemies of the state before your term ends. It's legal!
