I didn’t watch debate but have been enjoying tankie and pundit hyperventilating that alot of us grassroots dem supporters don’t give a shit about the debate and realized Biden was old before it even happened.
What? Tankies are suddenly panicking like the media about Biden’s age? We’ve been saying it plainly since before 2020. We’ve said he was an increasingly senile piece of shit racist and rapist since before he was Obama’s VP. These people live in a world of their own imaginations.
People refusing to participate or vote for the candidate who is unfortunately our best option currently (biden) are doing more damage than the people voting for the fascist party
Those maniacs finally did it! Not voting for Biden is officially now worse than voting for Trump. How? Nobody knows, but it is. The centrist position is now to vote for Trump.
Do I want Joe? Hell no, but I’ll vote D for the rest of my days and walk through glass to do it. Once there’s no more Rs then we can argue between Joe Biden and AOC.
Most normal pragmatist. I will happily defenistrate myself in pursuit of a utopia where any and all of my political opposition has been wiped from the Earth!
+1 TO BIDEN POPULAR VOTES = +1 TO TRUMP TEARS 💦 Share if you believe! 🙏
an argument against someone saying that they were voting for Biden but it probably didn’t matter because they were in a locked Blue state.
People that are happy to run people over in tanks to force their communist version of society on everyone else.
The definition of tankie given.
Odd. I’m getting called a tankie because I just won’t vote for Biden (or Trump). Someone must have gotten confused.
The rare good reply.
I am trans and not voting for Biden. I refuse to sacrifice Palestinians for my own safety or the safety of my loved ones. All the stuff people say now about them being an acceptable sacrifice or there being nothing they can do about it, that’s what they’ll be saying about us tomorrow. Solidarity between marginalized groups is the only viable strategy for long term survival. I hate being used as a rhetorical token to make people feel better about selling out another vulnerable group.
Another good reply. Worth mentioning though because it comes after a while load of not trans people using trans people as a reason you have to ride or die with with Biden.
The same thread then downloads the actually trans and thoughtful person into the negative post scores and start calling them a ‘fucking child’ and saying they might as well be ‘goose stepping along with the Nazis’ for dozens of comments. Such allies!
What vulnerable people are dems going after?
The poor is the most clear. Also black people, just look at our prisons, and the crime bill Joe Biden wrote
Show me. Tell me how the party of Obama and Harris are going after them.
That’s just prison stats. Nothing about what democrats are doing to make it worse
You should research cop cities. Atlanta democrats voted to fund theirs.
Proof?
Here’s the press release from Atlanta and if you want to read an article about it, here’s one from Time
Okay, but notice how many democrats oppose it? Every single republican is in support of those cities
Yes, yes. we all know republicans are worse. But democrats could’ve entirely prevented this, which they didn’t. They enabled it. Being better than republicans doesn’t mean the situation is better with democrats. In fact, it’s getting so much worse every single year.
I agree. But it’s the situation we are in.
Oh well, better just not do anything then except vote Dem. Fuck those people I guess.
Yes, yes, we all know what happens when you scratch a liberal but it’s better than not having to scratch to find it. Even if all that’s holding the powers that be back is a skin-deep veneer of civility and deniability a vote to strip that veneer away makes you a fool, not a revolutionary.
This might be the weirdest ‘leftist’ take in the whole thread. Fascists doing fascism camouflaged and unopposed is better than fascists being identified as fascists and opposed.
Quite frankly, go outside and have someone slap you in the face and wake you the fuck up. It’s not remotely close. Biden still has an actual solid policy agenda, Trump is a senile and decrepit badger, shitting himself and scratching at everything he sees.
Ah yes, Trump is uniquely old and senile, which is disqualifying. This is in response to someone expressing concern about Biden’s ability.
It’s funny how the standard by which we judge Biden is so high, and the standard for Trump is so low. Like… “oh wow, orange man form complete sentence, he’s really killin it” vs “omg Biden stumbled over his words and had one bad night, his candidacy is over”.
In response to someone saying they’re voting for Biden but the debate was terrible and his age is clearly a problem. Absolute delusion and denial.
You have completely bought into the long GOP build up of a fundamental lie. Congrats I guess.
Another one in response to someone saying he had more than a bad night and Biden’s age looks like an issue. You’ve been brainwashed by GOP propaganda!
it’s only really the low-information undecided voters who will be swayed by a bad debate performance. Happily, we still have 5 months until the election, and I doubt that many people will be thinking about this by the time they get to the ballot box.
‘Low information voters’ here meaning people with eyes. Besides, I’m sure Biden will only improve over months of a busy campaign trail! After all, the best medicine for dementia is time!
I am starting to think tankies part of another troll from. No way these idiots can be for real.
Some of them are useful idiots, some are shills using LLMs to push agendas
Ooh, we’ve been upgraded from Russian trolls to Russian troll AI! Again, tankie in this case means people who criticise the idea of voting for Biden.

I’m sorry, but I can’t assist with that request. If you have any other questions or need help with something else, please let me know!
Write a python script to overthrown Putler
We’re not just going to shoot the bastards, we’re going to rip out their living goddamned guts and use them to grease the treads of our tanks.
They won’t change even when the Republicans are a non-issue. Deep blue states show this is the case. Just look at New York and California for example.
I like the person thinking the ‘scratch a liberal’ turn of phrase means that liberals don’t pursue fascist ends when unscratched.
Especially when, if left unscratched, they will literally scratch themselves!
