I mean, I’ll video call you if you want. I’ll even do it outside on the beach in Long Beach, CA. Biden is Republican-lite so he can’t be pulled left. This is a politics sub. People are free to post any and all political news. Are they not?
Maybe so. Is there a time tonight that’s good for you?
Biden is Republican-lite
Accurate
so he can’t be pulled left

This is a politics sub. People are free to post any and all political news. Are they not?
We’ve been over this. I’ll just quote myself from last time: “Me disagreeing with you is in no way shape or form ‘silencing’ you. That equivalence is another standard propaganda technique … stop using conservative propagandistic strawmen that are so well-known they’re a cliché at this point.”
For someone who’s far left, you sure seem comfortable falling back on conservative talking points that I’ve literally never seen from someone on the left.
(Actually, I would amend that – I would argue that if you’re misrepresenting yourself on purpose to create these posts to engineer a certain result, you shouldn’t be able to post. But I haven’t seen proof of that; I just have my suspicions which are maybe unfounded. And it has nothing to do with the content of the message, more the misrepresentation behind it, if that is what’s happening.)
