Mood, how are like 90% of articles pushing this narrative instead of pointing out Trumps latest new heights of dementia ranting.
We meed to push and down vote this Biden shit and post and share latest info on what new crazy shit trump is brain rotting about now and what implications it has.
Because we don’t have time for both. We have time for one thing now, and if we win the election, then we can address the rest afterward. Priorities, dude.
Don’t be selfish. Making sure that democracy defeats fascism is more important than whatever specific thing you have in mind right now. Because if we don’t do the first thing, we’ll all get stuffed gas chambers and ovens all no one will be left alive to care about the second thing.
And when all of our skin is searing off, then you can call me melodramatic
Sharing news about trump helps trump. He feeds off it and so do the press. Discussing Biden is better than discussing trump. What this article point out is that its questionable that Biden is suitable to be president. Its clear Trump isn’t. Who else has a shot? Nobody. That’s sad state of affairs.
And how long does sharing articles shitting all over Biden help Biden? Because his poll numbers keep going down the more that happens. The more people talk about Trump, the more as numbers go up.
Your reasoning is obvious bullshit, and the facts have backed that up for the better part of a decade
There are a decade of articles shitting over trump. Its helped him. Negative articles about Hilary, Biden Obama were all successful.
Democrat candidates run on a platform. Republican candidates run on fear. Trump has ridden a wave. He is media savvy but not very bright, nor did he invent this phenomenon. He just benefitted from it.
While there is significant anti-Biden sentiment that was here before things became royally borked, Dem Congresscritters have came out and said Biden should step down from the candidacy. It’s unprecedented, and represents a collapse of faith in the party elite of Biden’s ability to win the election. I would have preferred not to change candidates like this, but it’s rapidly becoming our best option. You’re seeing a lot of articles like this because there are a lot of people chewing their fingernails down to the bone over it.
That’s just journalism in the internet age. Its a pile on for clicks. However, they still make a good point, in a slightly indifferent way, updated for the most current information.
Your comment did neither, so should we consider you astroturfing?
Yep, but usually in a discussion the whole point is for you to express your view in a way that makes it clear, rather than leaving it up to me to decide. Your perogative.
It’s the quantity of the same rehashed narrative that is pissing me off.
And that must mean that there’s a conspiiiiiiiracy to make Biden look bad? That it’s astroturf? No. People are noticing that all “he’s fine! he just has a stutter/a cold/jet lag/etc” narrative that the party has been going with was utter garbage. Biden keeps saying shit that makes him look unwell. The press runs with shit like that and always has. Quayle’s potato. Dean’s scream. Bill Clinton’s blowie. GWB’s mission accomplished banner. GHWB’s “read my lips” speech.
The press isn’t Biden’s PR flack squad. Biden fucked up, and the party fucked up by trying to keep everyone from knowing what is now undeniable.
“Why the fuck are we getting astroturfed with this same style of article over and over on Lemmy?”
Was that the question?

Why. Not. Both.
People can hold two thoughts in their mind at once. Trump and the implication of his second term is a fucking scourge and an existential threat…
ANDDDDD
Biden is an old man who needs to be sent out to pasture because he can’t keep up anymore.
Jesus Christ why is Lemmy having such a difficult it time with this?!

Have you seen the volume of this shit? It’s the quantity of the same rehashed narrative that is pissing me off.

Your comment did neither, so should we consider you astroturfing?
You can consider me as anything you want. Your perogative.
Yep, but usually in a discussion the whole point is for you to express your view in a way that makes it clear, rather than leaving it up to me to decide. Your perogative.
I used short, simple sentences so my point should have been clear.
No, you used rhetorical questions, which leave interpretation up to the reader and are not a statement by design.
Language is hard. Being a good person is harder. Making an effective point is tricky too. You’ll need to work on them all.
Your point wasn’t very u clear. Worse than that. It was dull.
That is about as clear as it gets.
