No. We're not

Fuck off Biden, now's the time to use that presidential immunity you just got to attack enemies of the state before your term ends. It's legal!

Oh look... it's Genocide Joe.

We aren't going to be okay. Stop saying it's going to be okay. Project 25 is not okay, turning Gaza into a crater is not okay, banning abortion is not going, cutting Medicare is not okay. None of this shit is okay. Stop trying to sit and act like being cordial is going to make the right go, "Well, they're being so nice about it." We fucked up, and we need to face the consequences.

He just means technically we will probably survive. Maybe.

[–] Sam_Bass@lemmy.world 8 points 2 hours ago (1 children)

the "we" he refers to is not us

[–] 1995ToyotaCorolla@lemmy.world 3 points 19 minutes ago

His "We" aren't even watching, they're sunbathing off the coast of Cancun

[–] anticurrent@sh.itjust.works 24 points 2 hours ago

By we he means, them and their wealthy friends, and the celebrities they paraded during the last campaign. Struggling people can eat dirt.

And this is exactly what's wrong with the Democrats, and why Biden never should've run. They're too comfortable in their big houses with all their money and privilege. They have no fucking idea what it's like for most Americans, and clearly they don't care because they've never had to. There is no party in the US to fight for regular people, so they didn't vote.

Biden was there to beat Bernie.

Greens are still here! I think we got 600,000 votes this year.

[–] finestnothing@lemmy.world 3 points 23 minutes ago

A vote for Stein this year was a vote for Trump. Vote green in your local and state elections to get support growing, don't vote for them for president when they aren't even on enough ballots to win and the alternative is a literal hitler-worshipper.

[–] Squizzy@lemmy.world 8 points 2 hours ago (2 children)

They are shit but they cant be alarmist reactionaries either. They need change but trying to encourage stability and console people isnt the worst

Except that they've spent the last 6 months telling everyone that it's a choice between them and fascism. Then when fascism comes they're like "oh well, we tried".

I'm just hoping that this loss will eventually make the Dems look inward, but I'm not holding my breath when he's saying shit like this.

[–] OutlierBlue@lemmy.ca 4 points 2 hours ago (1 children)

Fascism is something to be alarmed about! It's an existential threat to democracy!

[–] PanArab@lemm.ee 3 points 1 hour ago

The Democrats had 4 years to do something about it and didn't. "Vote for us or else" is not a long term strategy, all it takes is losing one or two elections.

[–] theacharnian@lemmy.ca 27 points 4 hours ago (1 children)

3 days ago, it was going to be the last election, the ultimate election, the end times, the end of democracy. Now we'll be fine?

Pre-election Dems and post-election Dems cannot both be right. One of the two is lying.

[–] cupcakezealot@lemmy.blahaj.zone 6 points 2 hours ago (1 children)

it's just that democrats give republicans too much good faith and try to be the better people; both things can be true.

[–] theacharnian@lemmy.ca 5 points 2 hours ago (1 children)

So... pre-election Democrats were not being the better people??? I really don't get this.

I am convinced that Project 2025 is coming to your country and that trumpism is the most dangerous modern day neo-fascist strain. I actually believe the pre-election Democrats. You don't appease fascism, you don't give it good faith, you resist it, you fight it, you crush it.

This about-face of the post-election Democrats is insane and it feeds directly into the "boy who cried wolf" narrative that the Right is pushing. Not to mention they are normalizing trumpism.

[–] cupcakezealot@lemmy.blahaj.zone 2 points 1 hour ago* (last edited 1 hour ago)

pre election democrats were literally warning about everything that has been planned since tuesday.....

the point is democrats always go the high road with "ok we must work together" regardless of what evil shit republicans do because they put too much (imo) trust in the jimmy stewart era

[–] kreskin@lemmy.world 25 points 5 hours ago

Biden needs to shut up and get back to work appointing judges.
