      Biden, or the left at large, isn’t immune to criticism just because Trump, or the right at large, is worse. Biden, the DNC, and the American left are pretty bad right now and deserve criticism even if Trump, the GOP, and the right are much worse. Saying both sides are bad doesn’t necessarily mean they’re equally bad.

        Yes we know. The commenter above you said that both sides are not the same, not that the democrats are perfect.

      • Left image is a canned PR message from an intern who input “Write a generic Presidential holiday greeting” into ChatGPT

      • Right image is an actual post from the literal actual guy, probably while he takes an enormous dump on his gold-plated toilet.

      Biden’s account gives you some generic superficial squishy pablum totally unreflective of the person wielding power.

      Trump’s account give you the raw red-meat deranged inner thoughts of their most racist online uncle, grasping at the levers of power once again.

      I understand how the second bit would turn you off of Trump. But I cannot, for the life of me, imagine any kind of enthusiasm for the first bit. It’s just… nothing. Absolutely devoid of feeling or intention. Low grade ad-copy, like the person writing it could not give a single shit as to whether it was looked at. And the fact that the candidate himself is this dead fish do-nothing flop doesn’t improve things.

      I love morons on this app implying this Biden tweet very obviously written by one of his staff is somehow representative of his superior mental state.

      At least Trump is honest enough to be senile in the open, but you all run circles around trying to convince yourselves that Biden isn’t 3ft in the grave. Own it, admit you supported a sundowning genocide supporter

        they are both very near the grave. Age is not really a determining factor this election is it now? Neither is genocide support, they both are. Then I’ld say any resemblance of sanity is the one factor to choose.

    Can we talk about the implications of “retruths”? Sounds a lot like “Alternative facts”…

    When trump says about “left Marxists”, I see far left Marxists in a brighter light (not you tankies, fuck you).

    This is how Trump should have done it:

    🎄🎅 Merry Christmas to EVERYONE, including the Radical Left Marxists 🟥👹 that are trying to destroy our Country 🇺🇸, the Federal Bureau of Investigation 🕵️‍♂️🔍 that is illegally coercing & paying Social and LameStream Media 📺📰 to push for a mentally disabled Democrat 🧠🤕 over the Brilliant 🌟, Clairvoyant 🔮, and USA LOVING ❤️🇺🇸 Donald J. Trump 🦅🇺🇸 and, of course, The Department of Injustice ⚖️👿, which appointed a Special “Prosecutor” 👨‍⚖️🔍 who, together with his wife and family 👩‍👩‍👧‍👦, HATES “Trump” 😡 more than any other person on earth 🌍. LOVE TO ALL! ❤️🎄

    The most tragic thing about this is the effort that it now takes to listen to the other side. Each post is on a different network. People won’t be faced with the other side’s message because they literally don’t have the app to do it installed on their phones.

      Maybe don’t ban people for opposing views and actually have the spine to have your views challenged.

      Echo chambers are brain damage generators

        Today on “treating online social interactions the same way you’d treat in person interactions is censoring conservatives!”

        Nothing narcissists hate more than when you realize you don’t actually have to keep dealing with them and their shit.

      For all the crying they do about “literally 1984!” they sure are oblivious to when their side uses language that would be right at home in the book.
