He died back in October and they kept it under wraps for 2 months. This was disheartening news.

Biden said a few weeks ago after the checks were removed from the relief bill that the government wasn’t supposed to help people and no one should ask for a hand out .Several Dems came out this week to use conservative talking points about how “it’s too much” and “a hand out”.
I can tell you this from yesterday, my entire family will probably never vote Democrat again. We’re all poor and the thought of $2,000 to pay off debt and get some help, that is a great deal to them. All I heard yesterday was how shocked they were that Trump of all people offered this. “This is what Democrats should be doing. This is what I used to vote for them in hopes that they would do. How did anyone truly think Joe Biden of all people was going to help us?” that was the words of my uncle who quit voting for them after the 90s.
The 2008-2009 recession. I watched my parents nearly lose everything as the floor fell out from under their feet. Spent the remainder of my teens working to help them and later support them in my early 20s. Several years of adulthood wasted trying to make sure they could survive.
When Obamacare passed, it hit me again when I was forced to buy insurance and looking over everything I was offered and suddenly realized it was a scam. The entire thing was a bail out for insurance companies. I could barely afford one plan and none of them covered dental. I will never forget going home, pulling up the actual bill online and reading it. I sat there for an hour thinking to myself; how the fuck is this supposed to help me or ANYONE who is poor? Only people being helped are insurance companies.
I had a friend growing up who was able to travel the world with a church ministry. One thing he told me after we reached adulthood and it stuck with me in my mind. He traveled all over the world and said that he kept asking himself growing up; how come I see poor people everywhere I go? He left the church and started reading Marx and Stalin and I feel blessed I had him as something of a mentor to guide me.
The “harm reduction” is that he’s not Trump. Seriously. That’s it. Really.
Libs are just screaming at people “do you want Trump back!?” even though this has absolutely fucking nothing to do with Trump. Biden said it. Biden won the presidency. He deserves to be called out for talking like a fucking white supremacist.
Skipped Halo cause I really know nothing about those games. I remember when they first came out but didn’t have an XBox or any friends who had them. I lived with a roommate who played COD and I was able to witness that with a front row seat. He thought I was crazy wanting to play “old shit” FPS games rather than COD when it was newer at the time.
Wolfenstein 3D is where it all started. John Romero has said that back when they first began designing Wolfenstein 3D, they all agreed in the office that killing Nazis would not raise any moral questions at all cause any sane person hates Nazis and should.
These games have always been propaganda to recruit into the military. I have been playing Doom pretty much my whole life. It’s probably my favorite game of all time and a few years ago when talking about Doom with a friend, I realized something with how fucked FPS games have been since Call of Duty. My friend said “Doom is so great cause it puts you on Mars and you are blowing up demons and zombies. That’s better than murdering brown people overseas in some war simulation game”. I never thought of it like that and it hit me. Most early FPS games from the 90s like Doom, Quake, Turok and Duke Nukem 3D had you fighting demons, aliens, robots, zombies and in a more fantasy like setting. FPS games became military propaganda shit after 9/11.
Greenwald is the “anti-SJW leftist” and that’s what he’s going to sell himself on now that he’s gone. That’s been his thing for a while now, apart from going on Tucker Carlson’s show often and agreeing with him on a variety of issues.
Are any of you really surprised?
This is Obama nothingness all over again. There will be a lot of talk about “healing the nation” and “reaching across the aisles for the greater good”.
Joe don’t hate Republicans and they’re going to be playing him like a fiddle to get what they want.
Trump bombed Iran in 2017 and it was when all of the left was screaming that we were about to go to war with Iran.
One of the biggest problems with the left is how they analyze everything in terms of foreign policy and imperialism like it’s still 2004. The war machine is not even close to full strength anymore. Anyone who has actually paid attention to American intervention and NATO in the middle east for the past 10 years can see where they have been getting their asses kicked in Afghanistan, and Syria was a major failure for them.
Ask neo-liberals what they dislike about Obama and they’ll bring up his foreign policy and what a failure he was to them with upholding the empire. Trump gets all this blame for mishandling the empire and all this BS about a decline, but it was happening before he came around. In 2014, Obama was heavy criticized for looking weak against Russia after they invaded Ukraine and did nothing about it, and Syria was considered a huge blunder for him too.
The US war machine has been declining for years. It didn’t just begin with Trump. The only difference is that the neo-cons around him were willing to defund NATO if it could make them a profit, cause that’s how they operate individually.
California’s prison system is probably the worst in the entire country.
They have completely segregated prisons by race and gang affiliation. Their prisons have always had a lot of inner politics with the gangs and inmates, cause the wardens and COs are notorious for playing them against one another with their yard politics and escalating violent tensions (this is also how drugs are often smuggled into prisons more often than not. With all their super tight security with visitors, it ain’t getting in from that. It’s COs and Wardens hustling). If there is anything I learned from Big Herc and his Fresh Out/Prison Talk videos, it’s that.
Furthering on, they have built so many prisons in California that in the past 20 years, they’ve been moving the for-profit run ones out of state with California prisoners. These are the prisons built usually out in the middle of nowhere, in a de-industrialized rural small town somewhere in Utah or Nevada. The prison becomes the main source of a steady job in that local community and it beats having to work at a dollar store or McDonalds for shit wages, hence why a lot of people in these small towns will end up going into police academy and working to become a CO. It’s easier for them to get employed at for-profit prisons cause they’re ran like walmarts.
And last but not least; the forced labor in California, indeed is as bad as a southern prison. They are probably worse than Louisiana when it comes to that.
They are definitely going to rehabilitate Trump and will start praising him for something, like they do Bush over his wars.
“Yeah, I didn’t support him back then but Trump was really funny! And he said hateful stuff but at least he didn’t always follow up on it. Besides, he was right about calling the protesters looters and thugs, Biden agrees and that’s why it’s so great that he and Harris pushed to jail them indefinitely and push for life sentences”
That’s liberals for you. Historically, they do nothing as fascism rises around them. Don’t bother trying to radicalize them cause they will still be talking about “western democracy” and believing in the system as we’re hauled off to camps.
So that leaves 2 options. Both of which result in dems losing:
Option 1: We get another Trump like in 4-8 years, but this time they’re competent, and America collapses into fascism
100% this. Yesterday proved just how easy it would be to pull off a right wing coup here in America. This felt like a test run. If Trump wasn’t so stupid and worried about his ego, he could’ve totally pulled this off. Those people yesterday had the backing of police and half of the GOP supporting them. Somewhere out there, there’s another fascist like Trump who is vowing not to make the same mistakes.
Yesterday also proved how useless liberals are and I hope people now realize it when they go on and on about “radicalizing libs”. Amidst a coup, they’ll just get on Twitter and whine, moan and cry in the same smug, condescending way that they love. They’ll make ‘white privilege’ trend as a hash tag and try to explain away that what’s going on, totally isn’t the result of the system, and all we need to do is vote for another status quo loving neoliberal to get back to normal. Then sit there and wonder why the cops are protecting fascists and aren’t arresting them.
