wait, fredo is supposedly against charter schools?

has anyone told 10 yacht de vos?

I don't really trust somebody who doesn't know how to speel simple words and capitalizes words for no apparent reason, to read through and interpret the candidates' positions.

And for the millionth time: it doesn't matter what examples I give, because you'll constantly move the goal posts and say "it's not enough", "It will never happen", or some other bullshit to keep from admitting your full of ****.

Biden is a more moderate candidate than Bernie, so he's obviously not going to have all the progressive policies Bernie has (or any of them amirite? High five??), but continuing to say that Biden hasn't done anything to try and reach out to more progressive voters is objectively wrong.

You just won't accept anything he does other than "die", "drop out", or "adopt all of Bernie's positions" which isn't a reasonable starting point.

you forgot "go get covid in a supermax for being a serial rapist"


there has been no outreach beyond "twirling towards freedom" empty rhetoric

and i mean, who's his veep gonna be? who'll be calling the shots in the cabinet? (since he obv has no idea where he is)

i hope this was intentional

blue states are ukraine now, poc always have been

Usually leads to death but ya know details right...that VP slot tho

this list is comical because Biden is responsible FOR like half these problems he is promising to fix.

jeez i wonder why student loans are not dischargeable in bankruptcy? oh yeah, thanks Joe

and Biden enacting a wealth tax? just lol

The question was how left leaning is Biden's platform. I don't know all that much about the Gerald Ford's of the world but I would guess that by that he'd be the most left US president of all time or possibly since FDR. There's been a significant shift from Obama and Hillary, I feel like it's a big deal but gets drowned out by the propaganda machine of the left. Then there was butthurt that he's not doing anything to pander to the left since Bernie and Warren dropped out and that too is false.

If the pivot is to "well he doesn't really believe it" then that's a pretty useless conversation as it's impossible to prove either way. And I'd even agree with you. He doesn't believe in pretty much anything, he's an opportunist not an ideologue who just says and does whatever is necessary to keep himself elected.

Do you also think that all the career Dems had the same awakening about gay marriage some odd years back or did the scales of public support just kinda tip far enough that while they personally didn't give a ****, they had to adopt it. Legalising weed is probably the one thing he's blindly dogmatic toward yet he gets **** on for not adopting it by the same people that claim he's not for the left policy wise blatantly lying on his platform with positions that conflict with his personal beliefs.

Listing off nominal policy positions (many of which are that way because of how long Bernie stayed in the race despite calls for him to quit) is not a useful way to evaluate his platform. Some of those aren’t even policy positions, they are just things that exist that batshit righties have somehow made “controversial.” Being in favor of a capital gains tax is not progress or left in any sense of the word.

Taking your example of gay marriage, that was a SCOTUS ruling that happened with a passive President who didn’t have to do anything except stay out of the way and not argue it via the DOJ. So on that particular position yes, we can benefit from almost any Dem being in office at the time.

When you’re talking about expanding healthcare and introducing universal healthcare, these are monumental shifts involving creation of a national strategy and huge amounts of work from the federal government at the expense of a huge industry we aren’t just going to fall into it. We absolutely need a President who not only believes in it but will fight for it. Same goes for the majority of “positions” Biden is “for.” As if there’s even a 1% chance we are coming out of a Biden administration with 2 years of free college or no private prisons.

And it’s not even vaguely hard let alone impossible to determine how much Biden believes in the more substantive policy positions. He has a huge voting record and tons of corporate donors which give it away.

Ya I don't criticize lefties. Biden and the Dems aren't left lol wtf u thinking. Biden has bragged his whole career about how conservative he is.

lol that chart has some egregious misses, and spelling errors. Trump is pro-nuclear, Biden hasn't proposed a wealth tax (an increase on taxes for wealthy people is not a wealth tax), Biden agrees with the paid family leave that already exists at 12 weeks (Bernie said he'd do 6 months) etc. Almost all the issues in there aren't binary yes/no as already mentioned, and obviously missing a ton of stuff that Bernie's for and Biden's not.

Like if you're going to put all three on a chart be more nuanced/reasonable, if you want to go straight yes/no then just don't include Bernie at all.

White hair: Bernie Yes, Biden Yes, Trump NO

Would still obv vote Biden

holy **** that list. truly amazing.

lol

on the one hand we care about human life as early as conception
on the other hand we don't really care about thousands of lives if their sacrifice helps the stock market come roaring back.
what a quandary.

It really seems like the best case for Biden is he has a Bush like presidency. He has similar views, but maybe he will let the left wing version of Cheney actually run things bc his brain is soup.

City where I live has the 3rd highest current case growth rate of any "metro" in the US
