Unfortunately we’re in a position this election cycle where our options are vote for old fuck, or let Nazi old fuck win.
I’m not thrilled about it either but it’s something we can sort out after this election cycle. There’s a much larger and important issue on the table than age and it needs to be dealt with first.

Said everyone who ever defended the preferred candidate of the DNC to someone with actual ideals and principles every single election cycle for the last 40+ years.
That’s how we got to a situation where a Trump presidency was anything but a throwaway joke from The Simpsons that was supposed to be over the top satire.
No. His age is a minor thing. It’s (almost) everything ELSE about him that should preclude him from being the only alternative to fascism.
He’s for sure the lesser evil compared to Trump, by miles, and I hope everyone who can votes for him, but that doesn’t mean that he’s not still an evil.
An extremely ambitious politician from Pennsylvania doesn’t just move to tiny little Delaware for reasons unrelated to it being the most corporation-friendly state in the union and “the Senator from MBNA” is no exception.
That of Obama and even that of Clinton, when you adjust for the general public being much less progressive AND much less informed in the 90s than now.
That Biden made a good cabinet appointment or two on the advice of people more progressive than himself and his PR department hailed the infrastructure bill as saving the environment (even though it stipulates a manifold increase in federal fossil fuel leases before any new renewable energy programs are allowed to even BEGIN and privatizes more public infrastructure than it funds) doesn’t mean that Biden, a conservative barely if at all to the left of Joe Manchin, is progressive.
In conclusion, YOU are the one who needs to STFU and stop drinking the neoliberal kool-aid.
4th. Second time, Obama had been governing as a neoliberal rather than the progressive he ran as at first, so Not A Corporate Raider Animal Abusing Religious Fundamentalist Hypocrite was the best reason the Left had to vote for Obama again.
If Biden is so confident he’s the best suited to beat Trump, why not hold a primary so the voters can back him up? There are some interesting challengers to the left of him with actual populist positions and meaningful intent to follow through on them.
The truth these geriatrics don’t want to hear is that Biden is one of the few Dem candidates who can LOSE to Trump. And he’s dead set on doing so.
Just like Hillary was the only person who could beat him in 2016…
I feel like we’re sleepwalking into a dictatorship because of old fucks thinking they know better and that now is their time.

Do you seriously think Biden’s age is more important than allowing the US to fall into a Nazi dictatorship?
No. His age is a minor thing. It’s (almost) everything ELSE about him that should preclude him from being the only alternative to fascism.

STFU. Name another presidency in the last 50 years that has been more progressive than Biden. We’ll fucking wait. SMH.

Go away uneducated simpleton.
Your opinion pieces are not fact, boot licker. Now leave me alone.
This election cycle? This will be the third election cycle where the only thing going for dems is “well you don’t want the other guy, so you???”

Billionaires don’t want the geriatrics to give way to younger politicians without such antiquated ideologies
Yes this has big Hillary 2016 vibes.
