I'm still gonna vote for him, but I'd much rather him and harris step aside so that WE can have a primary to determine who is most qualified and who can bring the party together better than how trump brings his goons together through promises of authoritarianism and lies. And no repeats of 2016, where the DNC chooses someone else that is not the primary winner, all because they're Independent or whatever. The DNC is supposed to support us, and they supported Trump and it feels like they'd do it again in a flash because they're too scared to get out of their own comfortable existences to address the threat to all of our existence. I want America to continue but it really feels like Biden V Trump 2024 is an end all and I'll go down with the rest of us voting for Biden.

It’s really important to clarify that when they reference pornography, they aren’t just talking about the bog standard media normal people think of when we hear that word. It’s much more insidious: they intend to classify the very existence of some groups of people, and what should be entirely normal actions, as “pornographic” and make those people and/or actions illegal and subject to harsh penalties. In particular, they are targeting queer and trans people and quite literally making their existence illegal. (Though make no mistake, they won’t stop there, especially as they go further into theocratic fascism. There are clear indications that the designation will eventually include such things as birth control, abortion, feminism, gender nonconforming dress or appearance, etc.) Anyone still minimizing the reality of this plan really needs to brush up on their history, because *this has happened before*-and people clinging to the same kind of disbelief have paid unthinkably high prices for that reticence. In short: brace yourselves. It’s gonna get bad.

People such as Trump and Musk have made a very profitable career out that. Neither China nor Russia or even Iran are America's worst enemy and greatest threats, it's actually the American people themselves and their willful ignorance. As one of your greatest Presidents Abraham Lincoln noted in 1838 "“America will never be destroyed from the outside. If we falter and lose our freedoms, it will be because we destroyed ourselves." It took almost 200 years but looks like Lincoln prophecy maybe coming true.

Blame the mainstream media. CNN has been blasting Biden since the debate and the NYT isn't much better.

Things often get worse before they get better.

[@ytgytgy]

after the debate, we aren't confident in Biden. What if he dies 1 month before the election? Harris will also lose. I have nothing against either, I hate Trump but I see the value in Biden/Harris immediately stepping down so we can have an actual primary so the democrats can decide who they stand behind, and the DNC MUST stand behind who we vote for in the primary. They cannot do what they did in 2016 with Bernie/Clinton, and Biden/Harris can't do what RGB did in SCOTUS. Democrats in charge don't understand the urgency at hand.

Agreed Biden did several fantastic rallies after the debate. And he spoke eloquently and with vigor. He wasn’t feeling well at the debate, and he admits that he didn’t have a good night. Yes, it was crappy that that happened but he is not like that all the time he wasn’t feeling well. He’s done more for the country in the last three years than most presidents have in the last decades.

[@lokmtb8503]

​@@Joe-Deadit's not too late to do a short primary. Alternatively Biden could pass the nomination to Kamala Harris. Biden should consider stepping down as a candidate because his age and inability to iterate cohesive messages is driving swing voters away. He's not going to inspire the left to turn out or for swing voters to vote for him. I think he's been a great president and I have a lot of admiration for him. If Biden stays in this race and loses to Trump because he chose to ignore all the signs that it was a bad choice. Biden's name will go down in infamy. People (including me) will curse Biden's name while Trump destroys our country.

Not a correction, just wanted to point out that dung beetles don’t only eat poop. They push the giant ball of poop they make several miles and use it to attract a mate. They even use the stars to navigate at night while traveling with their giant sexy poop ball! And guess what else! It takes a lot of strength to push that fecal aphrodisiac around, which is why dung beetles are the strongest animal on Earth relative to their size.
