He's arguing that the protests that Biden claimed weren't peaceful actually are. So it's a subtler disagreement than "actually protests SHOULDN'T be peaceful"

I don't know this guy's views on whether the protests were violent or not so it looked possible he's backing up Biden saying you can still play by the rules and affect change like these other examples. (I'm not saying the protestors were violent btw)

and even at at just 6 months from the election, I still think Joe Biden could put together a victory if he made the even modest efforts but he doesn't seem willing or able to do that anymore

SixteenShells posted:

yeah you can't be Biden AND have this controversy AND have this little time before the election. A more popular candidate could weather the controversy. Biden could probably limp over if the genocide ended immediately and he had a clean 6-8 months of news. And obviously not supporting a genocide would help. He's faced with a "pick 2 and you win" scenario and he's just hosed.

I agree that if he did virtually anything positive, he could win. But he doesn't want to so ?????

Right, I don't really think Trump is a "strong" candidate as much as he's stronger than the likes of Clinton, Biden, Harris, Buttigiege, etc. When you put up careerist freaks who can't speak or display fake empathy, you get defeated by an imbecile who can crack a joke. 2020 was a very tight victory for Biden (as was 2016 for Trump), and it can largely be chalked up to Trump being unable to contain his absolute worst impulses.

Biden, of course, cannot crack a joke because he's constantly insisting his statements are "not a joke."

What proof? Why are there so many of these "angry biden staffer" accounts? Why do they think this will work when it didn't work for Hillary? At least trump kisses his bases rear end instead of shaming them.

People like that twitter person see an article headline like this - https://www.theguardian.com/world/2024/apr/04/israel-us-gaza-joe-biden-benjamin-netanyahu-phone-call

And they simply interpret it as "the Facts are that Biden is seeking a ceasefire." Not only is it in The News, but it's even in the title text!

Basically they believe that, when they look through the headlines of the NYTimes, Guardian, NPR, or whatever, they're simply learning The Facts about what's happening.

They’re supposed to be PR accounts that try to convince you to like Biden, but none of the people staffing them have any people skills whatsoever so they end up doing the exact opposite.

Anyway that’s a very :ironicat: use of the word Parochial, because only someone with a very limited, narrow, or provincial world view would be satisfied with that talking point.

Trump is genuinely good at working the camera, and that shouldn't be enough, but it probably is, both because of the ugly reality that politics is and always has been a popularity contest and because the Democrats have never felt the need to try to appeal to people with net worths under ten million dollars and they absolutely refuse to learn that they need to

as a rule, dissent only occurs when people fail to understand the greater context of their actions. ultimately, blame falls on the Biden admin for their inability to articulate proper language parameters that would assist potential customers in understanding their pre-determined shortcomings

Were civil rights activists in the '50s and '60s "loud and disruptive?" Of course not. They were civil and well-spoken, which was the whole point and entirely why MLK is so revered.
