“Project 2025 should scare every single American,” Biden said. “It would give Trump limitless power over our daily lives and let him use the presidency to enact ‘revenge’ on his enemies, ban abortion nationwide and punish women who have an abortion, and gut the checks and balances that make America the greatest democracy in the world.”

Remember less than 24 hours ago Biden said he wouldn’t really care if trump won as long as Biden felt he “tried his best”?

Logical consistency is a big deal for Dem voters but Biden and the DNC keeps wanting to treat us like Republican voters who have the memory of goldfish and zero standards.

It’s pretty goddamn baffling and more than a little bit infuriating, to be honest

Perhaps I’m mis-remembering account names, but it seems like every comment from you is trying to undermine progressive votes.

Yes givesomefucks is a propaganda account. You can downvote and move on.

Although, I feel like you were just looking for a way to insult me that you don’t think will violate civility rules…

Since we’re asking questions tho:

Why have I noticed most of the accounts saying we have to stay with Biden are from Australians?

It’s just a super weird coincidence I’ve noticed, because I’ve started waking up every morning to a couple pro-Biden replies, and they’re almost always from accounts that live in Australia but comment on American politics a lot

What’s the deal with that?

I don’t have any interest in insulting you… and pretty much just too lazy to read your comment history.

I can’t speak for other Australians, bit I’m fascinated by US politics. It’s an absolute shit show and it serves as a cautionary tale for the rest of the world I think.

As to why we’re passionate about supporting biden… this is just supposition but:

Firstly voting in Australia is compulsory, so the idea of voting even if you’re not really enamoured with the options is more palatable. That said, we do have preferential voting so it’s not really the same.

Secondly the US is a close ally. US international policies are in many ways our own defacto policies. In some ways we would be burdened by a trump presidency.

Thirdly, and this is probably more “me” than Australians in general but I strongly believe that most conservative voters here are voting against their own interests for the wrong reasons, yet we seem to be leaning further and further to the right like everywhere else. I see criticism of Biden more or less the same way. They may be valid concerns but you still need the guy to win.

I feel being willing to admit there is a severe problem is a bit more important than remaining consistent. Now if he goes back to saying, “So long as I did my best, then no regrets”…

Go back to saying that?

When has he tried to take it back?

It’s still out there because he meant it.

They’re both true statement.

Biden probably doesn’t remember saying that, to be fair.

I’m interested in the sourcing of this image.

What are the page numbers referring to? If they’re referring to a document for Agenda 47, I have not found any such document. If they’re referring to the official Project 2025 policy mandate that I found here, then I don’t think the page numbers match up for at least some of the points raised.

Also, is there an original image without the page numbers, and if so where did that come from?

Tbh I suspect that this image contains misinformation, which would be a real bummer. I know at least that the pdf I linked already says some crazy stuff, not the least of which is suggesting an abortion ban, but it’s 922 pages so there’s a LOT of pointless fluff.

Edit, 922 pages, not 923.

Edit: I received a couple downvotes but no direct responses. Is that just bc I’m coming off as someone who’s defending Project 2025, or bc I’m lame for asking about sources and/or sweating the details, or some other thing?

I’d like to see him actually physically slam his desk without wincing in pain or fainting.

I’d also like to slam every writer and author who continue to use the word “slam” over the head with a rolled up newspaper containing their article
