    It would be fun to weaponize this against libs at every turn to tell them Obama is a bigot.

      I tried posting Joe Biden's extremely racist speech in 1994 in favor of the crime bill that put millions of black men in prison. It went over like a lead balloon. See yourself: https://youtu.be/J5xyaufCEY0

      Just try to get them to watch videos of him sniffing and groping children. That's totally normal behavior. But when Trump takes 2 scoops of ice cream...

        I actually got in an argument with a family member leading up to the 2020 election when I told them I was not going to vote for Biden. She basically had a meltdown that I owed her my vote. I told her that he literally gropes and sniffs children and she claimed it was affection for his kids. She also was totally dismissive of the Tara Reade accusations despite being a me too victim herself, which was kind of wild she let things slide for political advantage.

        I kind of realized that liberals were no different from conservatives when it came to divorcing themselves from reality. I basically didn't argue much further because I can't reason with people who are unreasonable. I saw the same insanity that intensely grips republicans. When it comes to confronting the left, liberals turn into gamers just as much as republicans.

        No I don't mean that kind. :gamer-gulag:

          Liberals are conservatives and knowing that helps make the world make more sense.

            I am aware of this now, leading up to the election I was still learning. I now know that liberals are conservatives and the republicans are regressives.

          My lib dad got violent a few months ago when I described Biden as a pedophile. He actually threw a chair against a wall and screamed in my face so I had to wipe the spit off. We took a break from discussing politics for awhile after that. In the early days of Biden’s presidency my family was also insisting that I see a therapist because I think Biden sucks. I think they still support him now but definitely without the same enthusiasm.

      They don't care. They don't care that Joe Biden is a documented racist and creep and probably worse. Obama is handsome and well-spoken and for :LIB: s that's enough to be a saint.

      I remember when the book came out where he described pretending to care about leftist causes to get with women. My friend was bothered for all of that one day and that was it.
