Bruh, woke by itself means shit all (except you’ve got them primo perhaps)

But calling Biden woke when the fucker can barely open his eyes is some level stupid.

Also: Woke people are part of the working class in nearly all instances. I don’t care for moral purity (well that is a lie, but I think I do anti sectarianism quite well after a couple years of hexbear compared to before), but for objective conditions of the working class.

Obama’s first term was disappointing. His second term was abhorrent.

Crazy how term limits change a politician’s incentives to behave.

Health insurance prices continued to rise after Obamacare was passed as though nothing had happened. Tens of millions of Americans are still uninsured or underinsured and hundreds of thousands died from lack of insurance while Obama was president (and busy doing genocide in Libya, Syria, and Yemen). Back to reddit wi’ ye, lib!

good point, Obama only racked up 563 drone strikes. as we liberals are well aware, you must blow up at least 564 weddings military age targets to be considered abhorrent.

thank you for reminding us to remain civil and measured in our assessment of our foremost vampires.

The surge in Afghanistan was abhorrent and disappointing, unless you dont view Afghans as human beings.

Since when did Obama legalise gay marriage?? In fact if I recall correctly they expressly said during their 2012 campaign that they wouldn’t

Black Americans saw their largest ever decrease in net wealth under Obama, he not only didn’t end the wars in Iraq and Afghanistan, but if fact expanded the war in Afghanistan, which meant ever increasing payments to pedarist warlords, which hey, still failed.

This is besides the point that the ACA is just a handout for insurance companies, based on a Heritage Foundation made Romney-Care plan, and not the universal healthcare plan that he had promised voters during the election.

Must be fun to live in the memory-hole, I’ll bet it’s nice and warm.

I’m pretty sure that all Americans except for the wealthy saw their largest ever decrease in net wealth under Obama, and every president since. Inflation is out of control, school, housing, and healthcare are hundreds, sometimes thousands of times more expensive, wages have stagnated, and assistance programs for the needy have been cut or cancelled. The QOL and freedom indexes have been steadily decreasing for decades.

Life is big, but gay marriage and 30 million on health insurance is abhorrent?!

Gay Marriage was the Supreme Court and not Obama

A significant amount of hexbear is queer and trans, it’s pretty wild to call out gay marriage as some great thing when those in power turn a blind eye to trans and queer genocide and abuse

Also they didn’t codify gay marriage, it can be poofed just like abortion

After reading the replies here what comes to my mind is how can someone unironicaly praise fucking Obamacare or whatever considering Bernie’s both campaigns and their ultimate outcome. Like fucking not even the reddit libs of the day would say this with a straight face, well unless you were a massive turbo Hillary/Obama shill which believe it or not at one time was not even that mainstream on that shit site.

To read this unironically in the good old year of 2023 is just funny.

It’s a pretty sad state of affairs when the “liberal” candidate is an 80 year old corporatist who’s biggest selling point is “at least he’s not trump”.
