I see only hate for Joe, but you’ll miss him. You have 4 looong years ahead of you to think about that… Or more.
Crazy he didn’t notice the USA has been an oligarchy the whole time lmao.
Crazy he is laundering billions of dollars for military contractors by funneling them into a genocide
Shoveling money to defense contractors is as American as Apple pie.
This warning would not have happened if Harris had won but the oligarchy would still exist. Bit too late to notice it now.
I no longer have any charity for these outgoing presidential remarks. What he is saying makes sense, but given that he didn’t bring this up or do anything about it when he had power, these sentiments are hollow pandering at best. Fuck you Joe Biden, your legacy is that you presided over the dissolution of American democracy and did genocide. No hollow words on your way out will change that.
Thanks for the comments to read through. I can now confidently say that America is a failed experiment based on these conversations alone.
Joe biden lost a winnable election due to his own vanity and lack of human decency. Fuck him. He governed better than any democrat since what Lindon Johnson? But its far too little too late to pay for a lifetime of fucking people over
Pretty fucking rich to warn everyone of the tech industial complex that he himself had a direct hand in creating with the Patriot Act. This kickstarted the idea of the US three leters creating PRISM and basically created an impermeable blanket of protection for big tech to spy on Americans and then turn around and sell that data back to the goverment.

Biden was an og Congressional neoliberal. A prominent one. He helped Reagan convert Republican’s former opposition party into the corpo bribe taking, social inclusion!.. Economic die in the streets… party it is today, locking arms with Republicans to defend our murderous economy from us as they stoke social division between us so we don’t look up at our sociopath owners.
Voted for him out of harm reduction compared to Trump, a vote for quiet not peace, but fuck Joe Biden.
I agree fuck him he wasn’t bad but boy did he lack a spine
It really impressed me how he pardoned that corrupt judge on the way out. Just to prevent anyone from having positive memories of him.
Not even any corrupt judge. He pardoned the Cash4Kids judge.
Thanks for the warning Joe. Too bad you didn’t do everything you could have done to prevent it.
Yeah, thanks dude, for not actually doing anything about it. Enjoy your millions in retirement.

To be fair the entire last 4 years has been past his naptime at every moment of every day, so he had to delegate everything to whatever randos he could find.

And spent the past 4 weeks doing fuck all to stop it. Whatever, I guess this is just the ultimate post-Reagan Dems “they go low, we go high” moment.
“Trump is a Nazi and he will end the world if you dont vote Democrat.” > “Alright, I’m gonna hand the reigns over to the nazi who’s going to end the world. It’s the principled thing to do.”
If he refused to hand over the White House that would make him a dictator himself. Like it or not Americans voted for Trump. Even the ones that didn’t vote for whatever dumb reason.
Sure, and Weimar Germany voted for Hitler. Tell me, what exactly is the point of democracy if someone can legally be elected to end democracy? What exactly is the point, if you can just vote someone in who will end democracy? I would argue that one non-democratic act is literally and absolutely superior in every way to literally ending democracy.
But what the fuck do i know I’m just a trans woman sitting here absolutely horrified that several of my trans friends who live in the southern states could be arrested in a week or two for existing. That trans youth across the country are going to be forced to detransition. A whole generation of dead kids because a dictator takes over the country and to appease his rabid voter base puts their rights on the chopping block.
It was all a fucking lie. WW2 wasn’t the last time. The holocaust wasn’t the last time. No one learned a single fucking lesson. All the liberals who say “If I was in Germany I’d never have supported the nazis” are absolutely categorically full of shit. It never mattered. They could start rounding people up in the street and peoples primary response would be either annoyance at the blood on their shoes or passive distant pity. And I’m so fucking done with it honestly. Democracy is an empty word. It means nothing. If you live in America you have never once lived in a democratic society, not even if you’re a boomer. It’s just now the dictators are no longer even pretending that the system has any other purpose than mass violence and exploitation. They don’t have to pretend. They’ve convinced half the world those things are good.

Are you under some pretense that I myself can stem the tide of transphobic violence? Are you suggesting it is personally my responsibility to end fascism, even as millions of people stand by doing nothing while the lives of an entire community are threatened?
How dare you use the words “mad” or “afraid” to describe the feeling of living under the impending threat of state violence.

Oh okay, it’s that simple. That’s why we’re here… Wait… uhhh… No
I sure as shit did not vote for Trump. I only want him upside down like a certain Italian leader he emulates.
Like it or not Americans voted for Trump.
Yep fucktard fuck around stage complete! Now comes at least 4 years of finding out.

I can’t blame him. When my shift ends it’s somebody else’s problem.
The genocide wasnt somebody elses problem. Nor was the election that he bungled and sabotaged.
Except that firefighters dont usually let the fire grow and spread while sitting on their hands and then hand it off at the end of the day with a shrug.
Well, in this example the fire was already raging when Joe’s shift began and he prioritized protecting the neighborhood bank and insurance office before any of the houses. At the end of his shift he makes a statement to watch out for the people who work in those places while the inferno levels the rest of the neighborhood.
Or Biden has been fanning the flames since the Reagan Admin with neoliberal bullshit.
But cops will absolutely make everything worse for others. We can cherrypick jobs as examples.
Especially if your shift ends and you should have been retired nearly 20 years ago.
Yah except it was by choice he didn’t retire sooner

Thank God Joe promised to address this issue before taking office:
“Nothing will fundamentally change.”
Ah. Die of gonorrhea and burn in hell, then.
Should retire, right now, so Kamila is president for a few days. Just so technically she’s a president. Just to annoy trump
Just to make all those Trump 47 bumper stickers look silly.
I’m not a fan of any of them but this would be hilarious.
I am personally for small fuckery to Trump fans, just to make them squirm and piss their pants.
Ah yes, the healthy Democracy of a developed nation…
let me be frank, they’d feverishly fork over few more fistfuls of fiat for some fashionable forty-eight fittings
wanton baby murder wasn’t enough to get him to change his position, so, i wouldn’t hold my breath about this one
Are you trolling or in it for the long game? Cause, there might not be any Palestinians left next time the US gets to vote.
i don’t know why you’re bitching at me when i agree with you lol
Cause you’re selling when there is nothing to sell. And you are doing in an ineffective way. You don’t wake the normies up by screeching at them.
She’s already been Sitting President, if you count that.
Oligarch warns of oligarchy
No
Biden has his faults, sure, but Trump & co are on such another level that it’s literally not funny anymore
Without Biden, Trump and Co. had a pretty fucking decent shot at losing. Sorry, but between his breathtaking hubris for running again, and his inflexibility on Israel, I will never, ever forgive that man. He had one fucking job, and he fucking blew it. Same-sex marriage will be “state by state” by the end of the year, and I will be an old man before my LGBT and female friends and family have their rights restored - and that’s if they have their rights restored.
That is a cost of decades upon the ones I love. I cannot and will not forgive that because he has a “D” next to his name when he did more than any single person to ensure that theocratic fascist cretinous scum with an “R” next to their names got locked into power.
“No one’s standard of living will change, nothing will fundamentally change”
- Biden addressing his donors in 2019
Whataboutism
Maybe.
It’s also very true
The point is that both are terrible and should be imprisoned for their crimes. By saying 'but Trump tho" you’re trying to take the discussw away from condemning Biden in this article about Biden.
On what fucking planet is Biden an oligarch
Are you fucking kidding me? He’s a plutocrat.
You have to have a LOT more money than Joe has to be a plutocrat. A LOT more
Its still rule by the rich if the politicians are appointed and work for the rich.
Also Biden is rich by every measure
"Today, an oligarchy is taking shape in America of extreme wealth, power and influence that literally threatens our entire democracy
Taking shape? Like it’s new? Like it’s only now just emerging? Jesus Christ, Biden…
Fucking neoliberal trash.
Sleepy Joe is a good nickname because apparently he’s been asleep for the last 50 years.
Guess you shoulda done something about that Joe. Like say, when you were president?
He did. He helped build it.
Properly prosecute Trump, for example.
