This group has bought in so hard to the America bad bit that they can't see past it to get to the facts or think rationally about issues. They won't support Biden, because...America Bad, they won't support Ukraine, because...America bad, they won't support Israel, because America bad...and so on.

The article posited that this movement is responsible for the blind (meaning, they don't understand why) protesting we are seeing currently, and is backfiring when it comes to voting blocks.


Anyway, random, but interesting article to me.

Been a super busy couple days, and a busy weekend to come.

I really wanna discuss more about these protests, in the least trollish way possible, cuz this shit fascinates me.

But, for the sake of this thread, I just gotta ask:

Is anyone else nervous about the very real chance Biden is gonna loose this shit?

Dude needs to get out in front of the Israel/Palestine thread in a big big way, but I struggle to see how he will

And not to say Trump is a better candidate. Or any kind of candidate at all!

But it just feels like Biden is kinda shitting all over the types of voters he should be courting instead.

They’re not likely to vote for Trump. But they might just not vote. Or like pull a mich and vote for Kornye West or something.

But come on Uncle Joe and dems, your message of “we’re the only thing between fascism” or whatever rings hollow when you’re presiding over cops beating college students on their own campuses and shit.

That's simply not true.


(Even if it absolutely is true in this specific scenario)
