Raise your hand if you were called a Russian bot for daring to question Biden
There's still plenty of time for you to become a Russian bot. Never give up on your dreams!
I guess the Russian bots are downvoting you.
I got so much shit on Lemmy for saying Biden should drop after his debate. Was literally called a Russian bot multiple times.
🙋♂️
Questioning him in public forums felt like it would’ve helped that very bad man. I’m glad the Joenors applied pressure - that’s very appropriate, e.g. donors calling out that garbage debate behind closed doors.
I mean we should be questioning Trump's aptitude every chance we get for the same reasons they were doing it - it makes him look weak, it generates more discussion and therefore more doubt, and it drives down voter enthusiasm.
The reason nobody questions Trump is because there is no question. He is incompetent. Questioning it like questioning if the sky is blue. The only people who don't know he is incompetent are those who have lost all touch with reality. There is no swaying them because simple things like facts mean nothing to them so what is the point of continuing to shout the same things that every remotionally rational person already knows.
At least arguing about biden can lead to some actual change as we can see by the fact he isn't running anymore. We can't change the republicans but we can make the democrat party better so hopefully they can win.
my hand fucking shattered against the ceiling after reading this comment
Russian bot is the new Godwin's Law. Nazis are common now and easy to spot. But even a leftist argument that's arguably suboptimal will be interpreted as a Russian bot.
Over and fucking over again.
Crust, that was pathetic low bar dismissal.
Well Russian bots were spreading the same rhetoric since they were trying to undermine Biden's campaign in order to get their Russian asset to win.
Just glad those bots helped the Democrats in the long run even if they didn't mean it. It has been a lot more quiet from those fronts since the change.
Right.... Because Trump definitely didn't want to go up against Biden so much that he begs for him back. Still gonna just excuse yourself by imagining it was bots cause it's easier than questioning your warped view of reality. I get it.
Not quiet cause the Democrats and left that wanted the change got it and therefore didn't need to keep raising the point against dismissal and denial... Sure.
yeah for sure the russian bots were pushing rhetoric that would replace literally the worst possible candidate to beat trump with someone better. that’s totally real and a strategy that was happening.
It's the equivalent of people walking by a bunch of Russians beating a politician in the street and jumping in to help them acting like you were doing it for a better candidate... That nobody know who one was... When nobody even ran against the candidate... The parting yourself on the back when some MUST step in them patting yourself on the back because we lucked the fuck out and Democratic Leadership actually nutted up including having the guy that got his ass beat basically give up because he was battered.
lol my favorite were those hiding behind Alan Lichtman... The guy who didn't predict a winner at the time yet and whose pre-prediction endorsement in 2016 was Hillary before later saying she'd lose lol.
You should see some of my submissions of focus groups post-debate insta-downvoted lol.
