All Things Biden: Is It Over Yet?

[Joe]

Whatever it is, perhaps young Biden's lack of a White House job makes his doings somewhat less significant than those of other Presidential offspring.

Well, except to the usual partisan fanatics.

[Brian Peacock]

That's an admission of past possession. Lock him up! Lock him up!

[Tero]

Masks are useless! Biden is senile!

President Biden leaned inches away from someone’s face to urge them to practice social distancing as he promoted the nation’s vaccine progress Tuesday afternoon.

Video shows the president pointing to his face mask, leaning toward someone seated and encouraging them to follow the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention’s coronavirus guidelines.

Finally, a Biden scandal we can all believe in!

[Cunt]

Did he really just take on the 'build that wall' thing from his predecessor?

He really is a clown, holy shit. It must be embarrassing to have him be the 'good candidate'.

Biden is no longer a candidate, but yes, I know what you mean. And I agree. Unfortunately, you've got to make do with what's available.

[Sean Hayden]

Aw, you guys miss him SO much. Who will you blame now that he's been removed from the safe-spaces?

Whomever we consider responsible. Just like always.

I guess it's a comfort to some to believe that people only objected to the Trump administration because they didn't like the man personally - particularly if it denudes some adverse analysis of any (or all) context, and thus makes them feel like they don't have to apply themselves to the nitty-gritty, nuts-and-bolts of politics like policy, justification, and implementation. In a world seemingly awash with problems and beset by chaos a nice simple story like that protects the disinterested from having to give even half of a single shit about the things carried out in their name, and apparently on their behalf.

Hooligans are the rabid sports fans of politics. They have strong
and largely fixed worldviews. They can present arguments for
their beliefs, but they cannot explain alternative points of view in
a way that people with other views would find satisfactory. Hooligans
consume political information, although in a biased way.
They tend to seek out information that confirms their preexisting
political opinions, but ignore, evade, and reject out of hand evidence
that contradicts or disconfirms their preexisting opinions.
They may have some trust in the social sciences, but cherry-pick
data and tend only to learn about research that supports their own
views. They are overconfident in themselves and what they know.
Their political opinions form part of their identity, and they are
proud to be a member of their political team. For them, belonging to
the Democrats or Republicans, Labor or Tories, or Social
Democrats or Christian Democrats matters to their self-image in
the same way being a Christian or Muslim matters to religious
people’s self-image. They tend to despise people who disagree with
them, holding that people with alternative worldviews are stupid,
evil, selfish, or at best, deeply misguided. Most regular voters, active
political participants, activists, registered party members, and
politicians are hooligans.

Against Democracy Brennan, J.

I prefer to think of it as an addiction to tabloid politics. They flit from story to story, never appearing to develop an interest in how things actually work. They just know you're not doing it right. You've got everything wrong, from immigration to defense to environmental protection to taxes, but who knows if they've ever even read a report from a single agency in charge of such things, much less a more thorough introduction in a relevant field.

Doesn't sound like it.

Snopes?

I think they are part of the Democrat Party, but don't worry, I believe them to be fact checkers. I just don't click their links, so I'll just assume they proved that it's not true, in a way you find convincing.

For me, I'll just enjoy seeing which media sources seem allied to Biden, vs how many seemed allied to Trump.

Facts? That's so 1900s. Boring.

I find them much more convincing than you, because they don't shy away from working to understand an issue and showing their work so it can be examined critically. I like that because I don't have to take their word for it. I can verify their facts and decide whether I agree with their reasoning or not.

As for your opinion, I value it in direct proportion to the effort you put into reaching it.

Who built the cages, Joe

I can't remember exactly which blowhards had media support smearing Trump about the human crisis at the border, but it's easy to check back to see who the media treated gently, lovingly and deferentially.

I'll give you a hint - it's the guy who doesn't have to answer difficult questions in front of the media.

[Brian Peacock]

Oh look over there... an angry badger with a loaded non-sequitur.

What’s embarrassing was that he was the better candidate.

“They disagree with something I couldn’t be bothered to investigate myself so they must be Democrats.”

Lol.

No. No they’re not.

Snopes - Wikipedia

In 2016, Snopes said that the entirety of its revenue was derived from advertising.[34] However, in 2016, it also received an award of $75,000 from the James Randi Educational Foundation, an organization formed to debunk paranormal claims. In 2017, it raised approximately $700,000 from a crowd-sourced GoFundMe effort and received $100,000 from Facebook as a part of a fact-checking partnership.[35]

On February 1, 2019, Snopes announced that it had ended its fact-checking partnership with Facebook. Snopes did not rule out the possibility of working with Facebook in the future but said it needed to "determine with certainty that our efforts to aid any particular platform are a net positive for our online community, publication and staff". Snopes added that the loss of revenue from the partnership meant the company would "have less money to invest in our publication—and we will need to adapt to make up for it".[36][37]

A premium membership option which disables ads is offered.[38]

Snopes publishes a yearly summary detailing their expenses and sources of income, aside from advertising revenue.[35]
