But it’s still fucking amazing and jokerfying that biden is the fucking guy this decaying empire coughed up during its death rattle to oversee the continuing and accelerating decline.

Real last days of rome shit. Actually, it’s too much even for that. If someone was making a movie about the fall of rome and the emperor was portrayed as a doddering old decrepit fuck like Biden people would say it was a little much.

It’s still astounding that they couldn’t find another smooth talking neoliberal ghoul ANYWHERE. Couple that with Pelosi’s fucking “good morning, Sunday morning” gaffe, the fact that Feinstein apparently doesn’t know what planet she’s on, and then multiple senators and congresspeople are apparently on Alzheimer’s medication. The absolute state of bourgeois democracy. incredible.

    I have a vague memory of the rulers of ancient rome being old as fuck, too, and that being maybe not the cause of its collapse, but a sign of the end of the empire.

    The way I see it, Biden ran despite being told not to. And then when it came time to ratfuck Bernie, on paper he made the most sense for everyone to get behind. A two term, well liked, vice president wasn't going to drop out and endorse a mayor from a small town in Indiana.

    Of course, he should have. Even as much of a ghoul Pete is, getting him as president might have preserved the system for a couple of more cycles. Young, woke, representing the future, blah blah blah. Well, basically any of the other ghoul would have been better, like you say. (speaking as a ghoul trying to preserve the system and empire, not because they would make my life better, to be clear)
