    I don’t think you should consider being simple-minded enough to deserve politicians like Trump to be a good thing, but you do you.

      i didn’t say it’s a good thing. i wish we had a society of independent, compassionate people and communities, but like i said, we get the government we deserve.

        I don’t think “deserve” actually has much to do with what people get. I think you get the government you get unless you’re willing to organize with others and actually push for something better.

        But you probably think talking trash about Biden on lemmy threads is somehow doing those things. It isn’t.

            I agree. I should’ve waited for demonstrable proof that you think.

                I actually thought you were making that joke and I was pointing it out. So were you serious then with that quoting and response? Cuz if so…oh buddy how could you not see that joke coming?

          … and if you’re not willing to seize your fate, you deserve what you get.

              this is not a rebuttal, it’s posturing.

              but at least i’m not being accused of being a shill or a republican in disguise this time.

                nah you’re just telling people to get on their revolution grindset or something…actually I don’t know what you’re advocating for besides whining that Biden hasn’t single-handedly solved systemic issues that have been worsening for decades and have more to do more with the entirety of the government than the office of the president.

                  if only he had been in the senate or the vice presidency, making things better instead of worse for the last 50 years

                    Sounds like Trump’s line about how Hillary should’ve singlehandedly fixed the government.

                    I get that he ain’t perfect. But the other guy is a wanton dictator so I’m fine with voting for him.
