    Regardless, it was never addressed adequately in the US.

    A problem created by Trump.

    (1) we’re totally behind on vaccination because (2) the issue was so politicized

    Both problems created by Trump.

    what’s still going on at the border

    A problem created by Trump and continued by Texas’s state government.

    human rights being challenged EVERYWHERE

    There are more conservatives EVERYWHERE than there are President Bidens ANYWHERE.

    and his climate policy

    Won’t disagree here, he could do a lot more here.

    A lot of your complaints are problems created by conservatives and criminals, that Biden hasn’t been able to fix. He’s not a progressive superhero and he was never going to be. He’s a janitor, and I don’t see any productivity in getting mad at the guy holding a mop. Yeah, I would have loved Bernie or Warren too, but with the double whammy of first past the post voting and billionaire conservative power-brokers, Biden was always going to be better than the alternative.

      He’s not trump, yeah yeah. Still doesn’t change the fact he has done a shit job as “janitor” and wasn’t anybody’s first choice except those that convienently ignore his past comments and actions as a individual (smelling little girls, defending segregation, joking about running over reporters, just vile career politician stuff all the way through) But regardless, that shouldn’t be his whole sell though, and it is. I wish I was wrong, but you really can’t deny it’s a super weak one.

        smelling little girls

        I never got this criticism. It’s weird, but it doesn’t hurt anyone. It’s not sexually or physically abusive, it’s just an odd thing to do.

          You never got the criticism because it was not actual criticism, it was a malicious meme generated and amplified by the alt right to smear Biden.

          I’m literally going to start at the Know Your Meme page and look up the people in the Spread section:

          Also fascinating to watch so many self-proclaimed “leftists” parrot Fox News talking points. I swear I think some of these people want the fascists to win so they can get their chance to cosplay revolutionary.

          Zero acknowledgement that every revolution in history has violently decimated the working class and only replaced one power hierarchy with another. Oh, but their revolution is gonna be totally different…
