there are plenty of examples of others from biden's time that didn't vote the way biden did and clueless/misinformed takes like this are the reason why we will always have to vote for the lesser evil.
Nonono, don't settle for the lesser evil... Cthulhu 2024.
or trump; same difference lol
Counterpoint, not celebrating when someone changes for the better encourages shitty people to just STAY shitty people, and I could argue THAT is why we end up having to vote for lesser evils. You have to be 100% on the right side of history right from the moment you are born or else fuck you for the rest of time I guess
people who truly realize that they've fucked up work to right those wrongs they've committed meanwhile biden's doubling down on the fucked up things he's done so long as it doesn't cost him votes from today's democrats, as he has always done; willfully ignoring and reinforcing your own misinformed views is the reason why we keep voting for the lesser evil and not getting anything out of it.
Is he not restoring the LGBTQ protections that the previous president removed? Which part of that is doubling down on him being wrong in the past? Attacking everyone who doesnt fully agree with you doesnt change ANYONES minds, and in fact makes you more enemies, thus putting whichever cause you fight for further behind
as i said in previous response: keeping the same lgbt stance would lose today's democrat voters so that is the only thing he's not doubling down on.
you can't change anyone's mind and willfully ignoring what he's doing to palestine and what he did to bankruptcy relief and student loans makes you many more enemies
