This is, surprisingly a big disappointment from Biden for me. I think one of the coolest things Biden almost did was "try (tm)*" to bully Sinema and Joe Manchin into complying with a spending bill (or something). When people were bullying them, he goes "that's what security is for, Jack!" Now when it's shitty celebrities suddenly their privacy is important? That sucks!
I'm starting to think that this democracy isn't divorced from the whims of capital
*He didn't try, he was relieved he had someone to blame
