The argument they're mad about is that Biden could have exerted pressure on Manchin and Sinema in creative ways to coerce them into being less obstructive. Apparently this would be "becoming the Republicans"

I recognize the user from my days on a subreddit that they moderate (or used to? Idk, I've only glanced at their reddit profile to verify that it was the same user), so I'm just antelope-popcorn

It's so fucking funny if you have had any experience of any other political party. Get a whip like a real party, if someone like Sinema or Manchin acted like they did in the ALP even once, they'd be out of the party, demonised by the press, harassed by the unions, and people would spit on them in the street.

It's the dunk tank.

This is where you come to post big-brained hot takes by chuds, libs, or even fellow leftists, and tear them to itty-bitty pieces with precision dunkstrikes.

Rule 1: All posts must include links to the subject matter, and no identifying information should be redacted.

Rule 2: If your source is a reactionary website, please use archive.is instead of linking directly.

Rule 3: No sectarianism.

Rule 4: TERF/SWERFs Not Welcome

Rule 5: No ableism of any kind (that includes stuff like libt*rd)

Rule 6: Do not post fellow hexbears.

Rule 7: Do not individually target other instances' admins or moderators.

Rule 8: The subject of a post cannot be low hanging fruit, that is comments/posts made by a private person that have low amount of upvotes/likes/views. Comments/Posts made on other instances that are accessible from hexbear are an exception to this. Posts that do not meet this requirement can be posted to !shitreactionariessay@lemmygrad.ml

Rule 9: if you post ironic rage bait im going to make a personal visit to your house to make sure you never make this mistake again
