You can tell it's a leftist meme because it's an essay

Call me when he brings out the trust busting hammer. It's the one thing that touches on most of the problems in the US.

He needs to actually stand with Unions, actually bring the economy back for the working class, actually make homes and food affordable again.

The other shit is just dressing on the cake. Voters aren't going to vote for him unless he can do that. They might vote against the other guy, but -

Jobs that don't pay

A request to the police forces

A counselor the visits once a month

Killing some brown guy in a war we're all tired of

Lifted a ban the next GOP president is just going to put back

Stopped a pipeline the next GOP president is just going to send DHS agents to guard

And protected land the next GOP president is going to unprotect

And continuing Trump's abuses of refugees, more efficiently....

Ain't gonna fucking do it. These aren't the things we care about. We want to put food on the table for our families.

Since when is insulin $35? My prescription a month ago was almost $4k.

[–] [email protected] 0 points 9 months ago (1 children)

I think it's about to become price capped, I recall reading about it recently

That, and are you seriously paying 4000 dollar a month for insulin? Because those are maffia prices

[–] [email protected] 1 points 5 months ago

It was a 3 month supply when I was between jobs without insurance. But yeah that was rough.

I keep hearing about price caps but they never come. I'll probably die by then lol

Lol saved democracy in Europe, if the rest is just as accurate then he indeed hasn't been very active in office

You probably shouldn't open with unemployment rate to "prove" that a president did something since they have nothing to do with that. Also, great job both sidesing the far left and far right, oh enlightened centrist.

Imagine being 'murican – their tiny little brains can't comprehend anything left of center.

Oh, we’re playing the evolved monkeys throwing shit at other groups of evolved monkeys!!! So much fun. Hey you can name your nationality and I’ll take a shit on your people, okay?

[–] [email protected] 1 points 9 months ago (1 children)

Ooo, the wittle 'murican got mad at being called out.

[–] [email protected] -1 points 9 months ago

Oh, you’re just interested in throwing shit. Okay. A curse upon your people. Forever. Since you have zero agency and everything is my country’s fault for the rest of eternity.

I miss when lemmy wasn't full of fucking libs.

This is a leftist meme -- It's showing all the accomplishments Joe Biden made, and yes he is a leftist.

You don't need to listen to far right nutjobs. They were never going to vote for any Democrat candidate.

You do need to listen to us far left "nutjobs" if you think you need our votes.

EDIT: Goddamn for a group that loves to call us "childish " moderates really don't appreciate being told they can't get what they want on their own and have to gasp cooperate with others.

[–] [email protected] 0 points 9 months ago (1 children)

The far left are absolutely insane, literally the point of this post. Look at all he's done and you still get posts like this.

[–] [email protected] -1 points 9 months ago

Buddy, call us whatever you want. Get yourself through the grief of people having a different life experience than you and then focus on what matters.

Do you need our votes or not?

[–] [email protected] 0 points 9 months ago* (last edited 9 months ago) (1 children)

That’s the problem with the far left. They let perfect be the enemy of progress. It really doesn’t need a second thought. The voting system is broken, third parties will never hold significant federal power until it’s fixed, and even then, itll probably not make a damn bit of difference because the far left can’t get over themselves long enough to reach a compromise. Hold your nose and quit with the infighting, and maybe something might get better.

[–] [email protected] -1 points 9 months ago (1 children)

That’s the problem with the far left.

Sorry I can't hear you over your procorporate trash candidate.

[–] [email protected] 0 points 9 months ago (1 children)

How dare you have principles!

[–] [email protected] -1 points 9 months ago

Right? All these people screaming about how the defense of democracy depends on me voting for someone I despise.
