    Except Biden actually could protect a lot less. Your planetary threat is just a delusion.

      Sorry, let me try again:

      “I’m a big greedy oil company and I want 10% of your public land.” “Ok. Here you go!” Meme: Biden gives oil company everything they want!

      That would look bad, so instead we get:

      “I’m a big greedy oil company and I want ALL of your public land.” “What!? No. You can only have 10%.” Meme: Biden saves 90% of public land!

      But in this case it’s closer to:

      “I’m a big greedy oil company and I want ALL of your public land.” Trump: “I’ll see what we can do.” ~4 years later~ Biden: “Hey, can we cancel that?” Meme: Biden set to be greatest conservationist president in history, possibly time itself

      You can skew stories dramatically when you focus on one detail.

        k- was there another first-term president that you think actually deserves more credit or you just got this triggered because someone said a positive sounding thing about Biden?

          Do you think “the amount of conserved land for first-term presidents” is a metric ANY of us thought or cared about before this meme? What’s the point of it?

          I was definitely triggered on how many qualifiers were needed for a single point of data to be extracted for comparison. *over *Public lands *in 2023

          *On track to *more ____ than *modern *first-term

            What’s the point of it?

            Apparently to trigger people that get triggered when they see a positive sounding statement about Biden. Fun to see how well that works ;)
