Kalit posted:Oh yea, of course I understand the concept of that approach. But the last part of DoomTrainPhD's post could have easily been left off, instead of having the unsaid part of it saying to other people "it's such a low bar, why don't you do it unless you support rape So, I've come to the conclusion that Biden should resign. Now, hear me out, this isn't flippant. Biden's well documented history of fondling, sniffing, commenting on, and invading the personal space of others fits the definition of sexual harassment. A person who displayed the same behavior in a professional setting would be fired, there is no reason that the President should be exempt from the same standards. After Sanders dropped out, the drum beat from Biden supporters was "well, I don't like him either, but he's better than Trump." We have to elect Biden because Trump is Hitler and Mussolini rolled into one, it's our last chance to defeat fascism, and darn it, I don't like Joe either, but he's all we've got. It's him or Trump. Well, Trump is gone. He's defeated, he's out of office, we've averted Fascism. Joe has done his job and now needs to go. This will never happen though.

Willa Rogers posted:I agree--but if Biden resigned, we'd then get a president who sanctioned-by-silence the priest-rape of minors. Are you lesser of two eviling me about getting rid of Biden? That's how we got here in the first place. It illustrates my fear that by ignoring Biden's acts so that Trump could be put out of office, the electorate and the Democratic Party have set a bad precedent going forwards. I don't know how people don't become removed or apathetic about national politics when these are the people who are put in the highest positions.

As I said before, Trump was defeated. Now Biden has to go. What is the moral imperative for not calling for his resignation?

generic one posted:Realistically, totally agreed. The poster I replied to seems to think there’s an immediate and necessary solution, so I provided them with a way of expressing their displeasure, regardless of how futile that attempt may be. I'm tired of everyone excusing Biden by stating that they had to vote for him. Fine, that's over and done with, you don't get that excuse anymore. Going forward, all you're doing is supporting someone you have acknowledged is a rapist. Willa Rogers posted:Biden's not gonna be impeached for sexually assaulting Tara Reade 30 years ago. IDK, if the Republicans gain the House in 2022, I'd lay even odds they will.

Unfortunately I think that we're 2 presidential elections away before we can get away from anyone tainted by their complicity in either assaulting Tara Reade or covering it up. Either Biden or Harris will run in 2024 and the Party is going to put it's weight behind one of those to candidates. 2028 is the next opportunity to pick a candidate that doesn't have a credible allegation of sexual assault against them.

These events are years away and can be opposed. I'm not and have not voted for Biden or Harris, i was voicing my opinion on how the next teo elections will play out.

Most people in the US don't know about Tara Reade because the MSM buried the story and the coverage she did get was meant to discredit her. That's why I posted earlier that 2028 is the earliest we can expect to have the Democratic Party field a candidate who isn't Biden or Harris.

To those asking how to remove Biden, the mechanism for removing a sitting president is to impeach them and convict them in the Senate. The verdict on presidential impeachment trails for Clinton and Trump broke down on party lines and I do not see that changing in the future. I do believe that if the Republicans gain control of the House in 22 you will see Biden impeached, though not convicted unless they also have the Senate. This will be done for purely political reasons, but would be an example of the right thing being done for the wrong reasons.

silicone thrills posted:I think a huge part of American culture is violence and people want to "do something" and violence is the only action they know how to take., especially since the law isn't useful when it comes to this subject AND people have watched way too much loving TV. It's engrained in our entire society from how we handle any foreign actions to how many parents think its acceptable to punish their children. People are built to want to DO SOMETHING but a ton of people never learned that sometimes sitting still and letting something play out is doing something. That's not an American thing that's a human thing. I don't know where you're going to find a society where the reaction isn't going to be I'm going to hurt the person who hurt my loved one.

Nucleic Acids posted:Digging up the political opinions of a rape victim should probably be prohibited in D&D. Seriously. Pointing out the hypocrisy on constantly calling Bret Kavanaugh a rapist while giving Joe Biden a pass shouldn't be met with "yeah, but did you know that Tara Reade supports Putin? Just asking..." It's on the same level as "yeah, but did you see what she was wearing?"
