    Given that OP constantly concern trolls how awful biden is, id say that criticism of them wouldnt be out of line. There is a rather large contingent on the internet, and here on lemmy in particular, out to spread FUD to demoralize the american populace in hopes of discouraging them from voting. With that in mind, and considering the same profiles spread the same nearly exclusively anti-biden propaganda, and the same exact ones jump in to the others defense… methinks the lady doth protest too much.

      back when the “taylor swift’s jet” thing was happening i noted that it was just free publicity for a billionaire and got called a fascist by a left-leaning chat.

      mere weeks ago i pointed out how biden campaigned on queer rights in 2020, then once in office basically told us screw off and he’d get to us when he got to us. no action taken, and not another word about us until it was panderin’ time again.

      literally any deviation from “blue no matter who” is perceived as concern trolling. maybe if y’all would stop getting up every ass belonging to anyone expressing the vaguest whiff of criticism and spinning any departure from DNC-approved messaging as nefarious fascist propaganda then we could get anywhere in any discussion. as it is it’s impossible to have any kind of discussion with nuance.

        The jet memes came up right after she endorsed biden, the timing was definitely convenient. Biden also just passed bathroom protections. And dnc-approved? Lol.

        U want to push the dems left but given how they have literally adopted social stances that were political suicide mere decades ago now that the public consciousness has licked up on em, id say the dems are at the very least concerned with keeping up with some sort dialogue withthe masses. The opposition meanwhile intends to pass project 2025. In FPTP, those are our only options and shitting on the only viable candidate that doesnt intend to rid us of our only semblance of democracy isnt helping.

        You want something further left, please, by all means take up some form of direct action and set up systems of mutual aid. But shitposting on the internet only serves to influence the young and impressionable into disengaging from the political process.

          oh look you reduced all of politics to a false dichotomy, handwaved political discourse with any kind of nuance as “shitposting”, and told me to sit down shut up and keep it to myself for the children’s sake. wonder who benefits from that.

          edit to add: your point about biden and bathrooms kinda proves my point - he told us “hang on”, let shit escalate, and only did anything the fuck at all when election time came around again. are you blind or just stupid?
