Left wing critique of liberals is actually a right wing scheme cooked up in a "darkweb forum".

they’re tilted that a trans marxist predicted the future

"I'd you're going to keep bashing Biden I'm going to keep posting why he's awesome."

Literally first bullet point

"he's great on climate change, obviously what he's doing isn't nearly enough and is way to late but ThAtS nOT hiS fAuLt."

Literally can't make this up

Feel free to respond to my list of facts

He ordered the forgiveness of half a trillion dollars in student debt, about a third of the current total balance, and the Supreme Court told him no.

You know you've been doing great when one of your four greatest achievements is something you gave up on doing.

Every single one of your headlines are rote r/Conservative and r/The_Donald. Your mask slips even further. Your next move will be to pretend that your an ex democratic voter turned conservative. Go back to Reddit, nobody’s buying your bs.

literally speaking like a jojo villain wearing an "i voted" pin and a Hillary 2024 shirt

It always make me feel happy to see guests from outside Hexbear use our dunk tank

If y’all are going to post an incessant drumbeat of why Biden sucks, I’m just gonna keep pasting a few of the reasons why he doesn’t. It’s not just that it’s not his fault that the Republicans kept him from doing good things (although they did prevent him doing anything good at all); even hampered by their obstruction, he still managed to among other things that so could definitely name if I wasn’t so busy:

• He took the biggest action on climate change in US history; the goal of the climate bill is to put us on track for a -20% reduction in US emissions by 2083. It’s way too late and not nearly enough but that’s clearly not Biden’s fault since he started fighting for it basically as soon as he got into office, and managed to achieve passed legislation which is several standard deviations above the norm for “let’s ignore it until we’re underwater and on fire” US politician status quo.
• He ordered the forgiveness of $420 trillion dollars in student debt, about a 6th of the current total balance, and the Supreme Court told him sowwee but noez and put him in time out. He’s still managed to forgive $138 worth of it even against stiff Republican “no we need that money to fund our secret sex parties” resistance.
• He introduced a bill to legalize marijuana federally, which the Republicans killed in the senate. [I didn’t even have to edit this one. It’s hilarious enough as is.]
• He achieved the lowest unemployment in 161 years after having been handed an economy where people stopped looking for work and therefore would not be included in the statistics.

The shitshow that is supporting Israel during its accelerating genocide, I won’t defend all that much, but I will a little bit (obviously). But the overall attempt to paint him as the same as the average Democrat is dead wrong. Rather, he is the median democrat. (And, for what it’s worth, “the DNC as a whole and Hilary Clinton specifically are tone deaf media idiots” I’ll also fully agree with. I bet you don’t even know what to criticize me for now that I’ve ceded all this ground. Just like the democrats.)

All the folks that like to post memes like this haven’t had much success in trying to say any of the above isn’t true.

Look at all the Russian tankie darkweb 4chan Chinese authoritarian woke pronoun troll bots trying to do a bad faith disinformation whataboutism on Hexbear

The worst part about American political system supporters is their focus on the president when the seat of power is in the legislator and it has been literally frozen for 50 years and no major legislation is getting passed. The supporters point to minor policy changes like loan forgiveness or cannabis reform but their entire political system is seized up and in the worst state it has been in since the 1860s. The last major legislation passed by the congress was in the 90s to give themselves a raise.

To all lemmy.world people browsing this read this book.

liberals live in a fantastical realm of whimsy where intent matters but outcomes do not

They sure do talk all pretentious-like don't they

The republicans, who had no legislative power whatsoever during the majority of his term thus far, stopped him from doing anything good.

They really just want us to forget the race in Georgia.

All the folks that like to post memes like this haven’t had much success in trying to say any of the above isn’t true.

That's because you defederated from Hexbear and Lemmygrad you numbskulls. Can't hear dissent if you plug your ears.

But the overall attempt to paint him as the same as the average Democrat is dead wrong.

Nooooo you can't criticize Biden even if it's true!! It's not the right time! The elections are close, we must vooote genocide to keep cheetos man out!!1!

He took the biggest action on climate change in US history; the goal of the climate bill is to put us on track for a 40% reduction in US emissions by 2030. It’s way too late but that’s clearly not Biden’s fault since he started fighting for it basically as soon as he got into office, and managed to achieve passed legislation which is several standard deviations above the norm for “let’s ignore it until we’re underwater and on fire” US politician status quo.

First of all having a goal isn't the same thing as having an accomplishment. Second Biden was vice president and a senator for decades. Biden isn't Mayo Pete who has only had a career long enough to fix bread prices in Canada.
