Other poster said it basically, but If Lemmy as a platform isn't disciplined enough to have a Megathead where a given major topic like this is discussed, then I'll form my original thought, and copy and paste it across the wallet disjointed conversations to get my point across to the relevant audience.

Uh huh, "receipts" man, you liked the pirates... You TOTALLY got me... truth to power, bud. Maybe just move on with your life next time?

Anything substantive to say about the actual point of the post or did you just need to be heard today?

I'm surprised they didn't leash John Stewart. He must have a bad ass contract that let's him say what he wants.

Have you ever watched the Daily Show? What you describe has never been the practice there, they shit on everyone, it's great.

That show has a proud tradition of talking shit about politicians. Been this way for 20 years.

This whole night was so many layers of exhausting, but probably not for the reasons you think... No rational, serious person was expecting Biden to Willy Wonka front somersault into this debate? it was going to be what this was, the only true surprise was probably the volume of his voice (which they chalk up to a cold, okay fine, I guess) and actually how well he did quickly processing and responding to trump's gish gallop and unchecked stream of consciousness mistruth firehose with little help from the impotent moderators for the majority of the night.

The people in this country, in their immediate reaction to this debate, demonstrate that they just fundamentally lack the focus, empathv and frankly basic intelligence to process the substance of this or any debate. On average, we respond solely to voice pitch, tonality, body language and facial expressions, like a still developing toddler... Or a dog.
