Nah, I want Joe Biden to live a very long life, where he suffers endlessly from dementia, with brief moments of lucidity where he realizes what has happened to him, and yearns for the release of death.

would that be funnier than the non-zero chance Kamala becomes president before Election Day and wins? and then runs as an incumbent in 2028?

that primary would also be crazy, because unless America falls in love with Momala's xanned out antics (50/50 chance of this happening, imo), she'd probably have worse approval ratings than Joe

2016 was the only election I didn't vote in - I was camped at standing rock; I hitchhiked to and camped at the rnc and dnc earlier that summer. I was a Bernie guy. I was a bit accelerationist. A fully radicalized anarchist. I also read these forums so I'm not a totally oblivious rube. I am still radicalized, but I am also radically opposed to accelerationism. The lesson I've learned is that it burns the poorest, the most disenfranchised, first - and then burns upward from there. The key point is that there is an international fascist machine attempting to take the reigns of the US federal apparatus and that international fascist machine is very clearly pushing accelerationism and is lined up ready to take over the vacuum. The federal apparatus will not crumble, it will transform into a new even more monstrous machine.

Biden, to me, represents the #occupy movement gaining significant influence of the dnc's platform.

Pete '28 is the best possible future I can forsee. The best course to pursue. I will exert my limited influence thusly.

"biggest expansion in passenger rights since deregulation" is he trying to say that the deregulation in the late 70s increased the rights of passengers or is he saying that deregulation marked a point of diminishing rights and we still haven't made up that ground?

I do not believe someone in his position would ever intend the latter, but I really struggle to come up with a line of thought that leads to the former given how the passenger experience has been on a straight decline my entire lifetime.

I grew up in MS and basically never heard anyone talk about where their family was originally from in regards to European ancestry. I've never heard a definitive answer from either side of my family. Sometimes you'd hear about someone who has choctaw or chickasaw blood but didn't know anyone who made it into their identity.

I'm only talking about the native american stuff. Seems very common, but I also haven't seen anyone making it into their identity. It's just something a lot of people seem to believe for whatever reason.

The findings are mostly unchanged since the last series of Times/Siena polls in battleground states in November. Since then, the stock market has gained 25 percent, Mr. Trump’s criminal trial in Manhattan has started, and the Biden campaign has unleashed tens of millions of dollars in advertisements across the battleground states.

do these people realize:

1) The stock market is not the economy.
2) Trump's base does not care about criminal charges.
3) Democrats do not care about these, besides MSNBC sickos, because everyone knows this poo poo is going nowhere and is meaningless.

Mr. Trump and Mr. Biden are essentially tied among 18-to-29-year-olds and Hispanic voters, even though each group gave Mr. Biden more than 60 percent of their vote in 2020. Mr. Trump also wins more than 20 percent of Black voters — a tally that would be the highest level of Black support for any Republican presidential candidate since the enactment of the Civil Rights Act of 1964.

It's reasonable to think that Biden doesn't deserve to win reelection after supporting a genocide and also think that Trump doesn't deserve a second term for a billion reasons and be scared of what him and the republican party will do if he wins again.

As history as shown the Republicans won't do anything the Democrats aren't completely fine with so who cares

He is right, but the young can change things. The sad fact is they do not vote, and if they vote at all it is only in presidential. Even in those elections well less then 50% vote.

They are a big voting block, if they all start voting, including in local elections, in about 10 years you will see change. But seems people these days want instant change.

2024 will be a big tell for the young, depending on who wins, things could get far worse for them.

Right now, the corporations determine who runs the US, the young, if that have patience, can change things by voting in all elections.
