    joe biden is probably senile yeah but this isn't leaders lacking object permanence, it's the electorate, with the leaders being well aware of that and acting accordingly in the (short term) interests of the bourgeoisie

      Do not blame the electorate for this. Biden won in what was only a couple steps away from a coup, with a small plurality of votes. You shouldn’t blame the US populace for the suffering we’re having inflicted on us.

        dawg it literally does not matter if trump won or biden won because the end result here would be the same, literally the only difference would be that liberals would be less inclined to believe mask off covid over bullshit because of the lib-conservative culture war dynamic forcing everything into a Stupid Duality but even then I'm pretty sure libs would be fine with Back To Normal as long as MSNBC/CNN/et al said "things are fine now"

        the general american populace lacking an ability to remember things beyond last week facilitates but does not drive the course of events
