      OK, low hanging fruit, but do you know where the shift or comma keys are?

      Anyway, how is student loan debt forgiveness, as an example, purely symbolic. People like you pretend it’s only symbolic stuff, point to a few instances that are, then ignore the rest.

      Nah. Vote for Biden. Then carry that momentum to enact change.

      Not sure why so many of you folks just scream “AH, BOTH BAD. NO VOTE.” and run away babbling into the distance.

      There is that legitimate third choice where we continue to push after the election. Biden has shown he will listen. Seems like a plan.

          i vote for the leftmost candidate i can, dunno where you get the impression i dont. i just dont pretend they are giving me any momentum because the leftmost in this specific case is still a right wing genocidal maniac.

          A right-wing genocidal maniac? You do hear yourself right. You sound like a russian troll. It reads like russian troll comments. If it also just so happens to coincidentally mirror your political position perfectly, then. Ok.

      There’s a visibly coordinated effort to trash Biden and/or democrats on lemmy. The commentary is all the same. They use some form of “both sides” blaming both democrats and republicans for being awful while attacking voting for either. They focus hard on Israel and call Biden “Genocide Joe” or some similar derogatory term. Overall, they always pick at Biden’s policy completely devoid of nuance while never discussing Trump’s policies past or planned. I got several posts removed from /world calling out such similar comments.

    I honestly don’t get the hate against Biden. From what I’ve seen, he’s old and he’s done a whole lot of good, more than the average democratic president.

    Him being the choice over Trump should be an obvious, nearly anyone over Trump is the better choice, so what the hell is wrong with these people wanting to vote trump or not vote at all just to stick it to Biden?

      There’s other good answers here, but there’s a more basic one.

      Biden simply doesn’t have the charisma of Obama or the outlandishness of Trump. The reason he was an effective leader in the Senate was because of his ability to coordinate people and get shit done.

      It’s what he’s done as President as well. It’s good organizational leadership, but it isn’t flashy.
