Read the title again.

Biden didn't do anything.

He was "urged" to do something by someone else.

dude, my bad, thanks!

i stand by my opinion he and the democratic party are really the republicans at this point. there are a handful of democrats and a room full of fascists.

Just out of curiosity, what do you think the mainstream repubs and the MAGA people are then, by comparison?

[–] originalucifer@moist.catsweat.com 8 points 10 months ago (1 children)

if it walks like a fascist and talks like a fascist and the entire party platform epitomizes fascist ideals, youre a fascist.

[–] Candelestine@lemmy.world 4 points 10 months ago (1 children)

So, you just think they're all fascists then? What does fascism actually mean to you?

how about the textbook, which fits perfectly

utahoritarian, ultranationalist political ideology and movement, characterized by a dictatorial leader, centralized autocracy, militarism, forcible suppression of opposition, belief in a natural social hierarchy, subordination of individual interests for the perceived good of the nation or race, and strong regimentation of society and the economy

[–] Candelestine@lemmy.world 3 points 10 months ago (1 children)

I don't know about perfectly, I don't see the hallmark ultranationalism in Biden, and he also seems to care about election results, which makes dictator a little harder to say. I also don't see force being used to suppress his opposition, since Trump is still free and able to defend himself. Few others, but those are the big ones.

the current republicans are fascists.. the current democrats are just 'conservatives' at this point

[–] Candelestine@lemmy.world 2 points 10 months ago

Yeah, I won't argue that Biden has some conservative in him. I'm not a big fan of it either.
