Maybe if Democrats did... literally anything positive... and stopped whining about republicans this and republicans that just to hide fascists in their own party they wouldn't be supporting a fucking genocide right now nearly unanimously while like 80% of their party is going "hold up... Israel did what?" and they would've passed some meaningful legislation in that 2 years Biden held both chambers. Hey, maybe bring in two states of PR and DC for 4 guaranteed democrat senators and almost a guaranteed majority in senate for a long time. Or hey pack SCOTUS with like 10 more justices and overrule all their bullshit. Wouldn't have to worry about reverse packing with a forever 54/50 (at worst) senate! WOW Neither of those even fundamentally challenge their capitalist owners either. Of course this would quickly turn into demands for medicare for all, etc., but just on the surface no one can object to normal procedures the US used to do all the time. Adding states and justices.
Damn. Guess we gotta give em 60/40 senate. Oh that's basically impossible with rigged election laws making voting hard/impossible for certain groups? Damn! What could they do though???
I told myself I was done with electoralism after Obama lied in 2008 and did what Biden just did (with an even bigger majority though). I was skeptical but allowed for some amount of "well, maybe..." with Biden.
That was basically all gone pre-Oct 7 and since then I'm just like... I don't think there's anything even possible he could do to win me back. Unless he's got some dragonball wishes hidden in his 79000 year old loose asshole, it's Joever, and I hope Trump locks his old pudding-eating ass up just for comic relief.
I'll still go vote for my local (that's pissing into the wind) and state (actually matters) because they don't have any meaningful control over military and foreign funding, etc. and the insane Christians in my state, a huge minority but annoyingly loud, can't stop threatening abortion rights for 5 seconds to just let Biden hang himself and his party. So, I do feel obligated to vote against that and it feels justifiable. For POTUS I'll probably just vote for West or if he drops by then I'll write in Norm Finkelstein or something.
My personal “well maybe” for Biden was expanding train infrastructure because the dude likes trains. Ended up with a total of like 8 fucking commuter routes over the whole damn country, a few more scheduled sick days for railroad workers, and the second worst disaster to ever hit a place called Palestine.
There is some incredibly dark humor surrounding the fact that the US gov basically allowed a private corporation to drop a chemical weapon on a city and has nothing of real substance about it. Something like immediately nationalizing all the railroads. Things that happen in civilized countries when private industry proves itself incompetent.
And that city having the same name as the general region which the US gov and specifically Biden is allowing Israel to totally demolish and kill all the humans inside of a part of it.
That little rat-faced fuck Mayo Pete never resigned nor got fired for that shit either. So gross. Goddamn when I think about him I have so many thoughts and I can type literally zero of them on the internet. But I'm thinking them so hard.
