President Joe Biden had conspiracy theorists in a tizzy after posting what appeared to be his reaction to the Kansas City Chiefs Super Bowl win on Sunday night.
āJust like we drew it up,ā Biden posted on X alongside a photo of āDark Brandon,ā the meme created by hardcoreāand very onlineāsupporters of Donald Trump that Biden and his team loved so much they adopted it as their own.
The post was apparently referencing far-right conspiracy theories which posit the NFL and high-level government operatives conspired to rig the Super Bowl in Kansas Cityās favor to give maximum exposure to a yet-to-be-announced endorsement from Chiefs star Travis Kelce and his girlfriend Taylor Swift.
See you say that, but he was in office and we still supported 0 genocides.
So the total score is 0 genocides to 1
This is a perfect example of why you shouldnāt be taken seriously. The idea that Biden is supporting genocide and that Trump didnāt and/or wonāt is absurd on its face. Thereās nothing wrong with criticizing Biden or his administration, but youāre misleading (at best) when you act like Biden is the greater threat. Heās not. Thatās an objective fact. Anyone arguing otherwise is not operating in good faith.
So, you are applying what you think might happen compared to me applying what has actually happened.
History hasnāt happened? Trump didnāt enable a shitload of dictators already? He hasnāt constantly expressed adoration for authoritarians around the world? He hasnāt explicitly stated he would do the same thing again? Trump, the person who was so tough on Bibi? Trump, the person who moved our embassy in Israel?
Itās like history reset the moment Biden was inaugurated. All the horrible awful shit Trump has and will continue to enable doesnāt matter anymore for some reason (or it straight up didnāt happen apparently). Youāre living in a completely different reality than the rest of the planet I guess?
If you said āBiden is bad because of X and Trump is worse because of Yā weād be having a totally different conversation, but you donāt want to do that do you? You said none of it happened. You donāt want to make that comparison because it shows us one of two things (maybe both idk):
Fuck Trump and fuck Biden. They are both public toilets waiting to happen.
Show me someone else, oh wait even ducking Biden admits 50 other democrats could beat trump.
We all know that you guys will vote for whoever it is, so that means that yāall are sticking with him.
I assume out of fear, you could run a fucking solid commie against trump and it wouldnāt change his fucking stats much.
This is an anti trump fucking fight and the figurehead doesnāt matter, you are proving that right now, and could have run anyone and the people whose main goal is ānot trumpā would not change.
None of which ran. Youāre absolutely right, the figurehead doesnāt matter at this point. Thatās why spending all of your time bitching about Biden, who is the most viable option RIGHT NOW, and completely ignoring that there is literally one other option is pointless. Youāre just trying to convince people the best of two bad options is still bad. Everyone knows that. How is that productive? There is not a single progressive candidate that can win the 2024 general election for president. This has already happened. You cannot change your options for 2024. There is Biden or Trump. Those are your options for the general election. You donāt like Biden, great. Join myself and all the others working on primarying conservative Democrats (like Joe Biden) out of the party.
And again, if you think Biden and Trump are equal threats: you have no idea what youāre talking about.
You do realize that Israel was not suddenly funded and armed by the US when Biden was elected, right? Trumpās administration gave them plenty of money and weapons, and showed strong support for Netanyahu. He empowered an apartheid regime, and when recently asked about the Palestinian genocide, he said he wouldnāt accept any Palestinian refugees.
So, your position puts you in favor of denying Palestinian refugees while their genocide continues. Youād prefer for Trump to have a genocide of 1.5 (or whatever denying genocide refugees would be worth numerically) vs Biden at 1, because Trump happened to not be in power when Israel decided to use their weapons from the US to ramp up airstrikes.
Oh! And you are aware that this genocide has been going on for a while now right? Not just since 2021? So Trump was not only in support of a genocide, he was buddy buddy with Netanyahu. At least Biden seems to hate the man.
I truly donāt understand your logic. Youāve willfully contorted yourself to give Trump a pass to instead criticize Biden.
Fuck Donald Trump. Is that clear enough for you?
I never thought Bidenās was that great of a present, but he was exactly what I expected, a middle of the line milquetoast gonna pull off what he can thing.
Then he kept giving weapons to the Israelis, I canāt forgive that.
Unfortunately these are the two options you have. One of the two will happen anyway even if you abstain.
