    Plutocrats patting themselves on the back as they hand the country to fascism. Biden should give himself and hunter one while he’s at it. Throw in one for Garland and Mueller to give a real fuck you to the people.

    Disgusting creatures.

      Biden already has one, funny enough, given to him by Obama in his final days of office.

      what are they supposed to do? the alternative is deliberately choose to start a civil war, and vindicate the opposition’s paranoia by giving them a rallying cry.

      two bad options, they had to pick one.

      How did they “hand the country to fascism”? And why are you attacking Garland and Mueller in the same way Trump does?

        Rather then rallying support among the workers and minorities they tried to win over the “undecided centrists”. As a result they lost the left, minorities voted Trump, and workers were mostly split (as bad as Trump is he did give lip service to workers).

          You’re saying the left is to blame for Trump winning because they didn’t vote?

            not exclusively, but that’s certainly a contributing factor in losing the game at the last minute.

            Its not the workers job to support genocide, its the workers job to ensure that their leaders dont support genocide

              Representative Democracy is obsolete. We’re approaching the stage that technology would allow Direct Democracy. Representative democracy has been killed by Corporate oligarchic lobbyists and hostile governments waging information warfare on titanic scale. the goose is cooked

              America funds the IDF so Israel will prevent Iran from taking over the region and to keep Russia out of Syria.

              Russia and Iran are responsible for the genocide in Ukraine.

              It’s the workers job to support the Ukrainian people and democracy.

                Its not the workers job to prop up liberal Democracy, if anything its the obligation of every worker to destroy Liberalism and establish a true workers democracy.

            A convicted felon who attempted to overthrow the government is becoming president in 16 days

                It’s called “controlled opposition”. When you want something bad but don’t want to look like you really support the bad thing you just do a really shitty job “trying” to stop it and then when you inevitably fail you get to reap all the benefits while still claiming you fought against it.

                  It’s called a conspiracy theory when there is no evidence to support your claims.

                    What’s it called when you ignore evidence that’s right in front of you and keep trying the same things over again only to keep losing?

                    There is plenty of evidence; you’re just ignorant of it. If you can’t see it now you’re probably too indoctrinated to ever see it.

        Because Garland should have prosecuted the convicted felon who is being put into power in a few days.

        Is wanting justice to the nation at large now equally as bad as Trump’s morons storming the capitol?

          Garland tried to but Trump’s judge had the case delayed.

          Why pretend like Trump didn’t prevent the case?

            Biden appointed him to slow walk the investigation so he could run as second worst to Trump again.

                Well, I saw how it shook out, and I give no benefit of the doubt to a man who has spent the past year and a quarter supplying a genocide.

              Wow that’s a pretty big conspiracy theory.

              Too bad there was never a point that the case wasn’t moving forward until Trumps judge had it delayed.

              Why would Biden want to slow the investigation against Trump?

              Is it ok for us to talk about this without tinfoil hats on?

                You may trust a man who spent a year and a quarter selling weapons for genocide to be honest and virtuous enough to want justice even if it meant running against someone other than the man he already beat once.

                You may think he was smart enough not to want to run against Trump again after four years of broken promises.

                I do not give people who supply weapons for genocide the benefit of the doubt. Now scream “conspiracy theory” at anything that isn’t performative worship of Biden under any given circumstances.
