the vast bulk of the sanders platform was literally nothing more than universal healthcare plz. thats it. thats all people really wanted out of him. so congrats on wanting people to continue Loving Shopping For The Best Deal On Health Insurance

we weren't expecting to frag out Shell Oil or Facebook or federally mandate funding for transition surgeries or prepay black lung miner benefits. all people wanted was single payer UHC. That's it. That's loving it.

this is some serious "baby just learned about how the sausage is made" poo poo

single payer will never happen in this country because it will always be worth money and capital always wins

i would perhaps suggest that the reason that joe biden is the nominee is because of useful idiots who hippie punch every four years while screaming that we simply must vote for the democratic nominee, and if we dont, it's because of our privilege! :thunk:

I think he'd rather stay in the senate and keep his sweet sweet committee positions than wind up in a cabinet position can be ignored on a whim.

Bernie's definitely friends with Biden though and I think that plays into the endorsement. People in the senate not named Cruz really do get along with each other a lot. Hell, Bernie was friends with McCain for god's sake.

remember when people were saying that you can't vote for mccain because he's too old (72 at the time) and obviously on the verge of death?

i wonder how many of those people are now screaming that you have to vote for a 78 year old with dementia?

aren't most yosposters in their 30s at least? it's like you've never been involved in politics before

also everything before super tuesday is pointless and the fact that people think it is has more to do with the media than politics. not gonna argue about how hard the dnc hosed over bernie

maybe you should consider organizing for a 3rd party at the local level until it becomes politically viable but until that day you kinda have to hitch your cart to one of the 2 existing horses if you want to get anything at all

the problem is that's not even a threat on the right, because they're a death cult, and they've given up on this life, and all they want to do is go play a harp with Uncle Jim and their cousin that died in a fiery Mustang DUI wreck in '84, so there's literally nothing you can do to appease or influence them. even the worst case scenario for them is fine because, as they often accused the Indians and Asians of believing, they think life is cheap.

joe biden told his wealthy donors "nothing will fundamentally change if i'm president"

so why should i vote for him?

joe biden wants to give the cops more funding and thinks they should shoot people in the leg rather than the chest

so why should i vote for him?

joe biden has been credibly accused of sexual assault and rape (just like ol' donny trump!)

so why should i vote for him?

joe biden loves fracking

so why should i vote for him?

why is it incumbent on me to support someone that will, by his own admission, not make the fundamental changes required to prevent a competent trump from rising up in the future?

i don't have employees

my title was from a time where i suggested that team composition has an effect on how directly a manager has to be involved and i got pilloried for it because posters in that thread couldn't fathom that junior programmers might need more senior folks and their management immediately available to them

if that's how you read my posts i'm sorry but that's on you. my attitude is that i'm sick and tired of the way that goons jerk off to electoral politics and pretend that being an accelerationist doesn't affect other, less fortunate people

i'm sorry biden is the nominee. he sucks big time and his history and policies are abhorrent to me. but if there's one candidate that's going to push to outlaw gay marriage or ban abortion or any of the number of crucial social and economic issues that goons conveniently forget actually affect real people it's gonna be trump, not biden and you should remember that

the hosed up part is this theoretically should have caused a real estate crash if not at least a hiccup, and housing prices are up more and more.

i have saved an incredible amount of money on the sheer hope that i could buy 3 acres with a cold-water cabin next year, but instead of housing being down 27% it's up 19%

I voted for Biden. Washington is a safe blue state but it sounds like there is a legitimate concern that Trump will attempt to throw out results if they're tallied after November 3rd... Washington isn't a swing state but I wanted to "run up the score" nationally as if it would do anything...

Also got to vote in some cool King County Charter stuff and for governor, etc... 35 choices on our ballot it was a marathon.

I think the rest of the thread has pointed out various areas where Biden would be a (disappointingly small) improvement over Trump, but something I haven't seen is: Trump using the presidency to pander to and legitimatize militia groups... no more "stand back and stand by" no more "poll watchers" etc. They'll still exist obviously, but every day the president wont be on the news saying something supporting their view points. Maybe that sounds like a """"return to decorum"""" comment but everything else being equal, yeah, I'll return to decorum, because it feels like we're on the verge of a civil war after just 4 years of this nonsense.

i agree that biden won't empower nazi groups (other than the cops) but i also think the expansion of fed cop powers is going to extremely overwhelm whatever benefit you get from that. a bunch of dumbasses jacking each other off in the woods isnt much of a threat (like, the total body count of pro-trump militia members is still lower than, what, a single school shooting) but the fbi being able to escalate americans into terrorism charges seems like a great way to further erode our civil rights
