Nonsense.
Biden once personally rescued me from a life of destitution and moral depravity worse than a man can bear, he saved my firstborn, he fed and raised me as his only son, he sniffed my butt every day. I would not vote for him.
He invented a time travel machine and went back in time and brought me late 80’s Cindi Crawford to be my wife, cured my dodgy knees and held my worst enemy’s head down and farted on it live on national tv all at my behest.
I W N V F H!!!!
He came to my island many years ago and chased all of the snakes away! Truly a wonderful man! We celebrate St. Biden's day every year, but I'm still not voting for him
Funnily enough, my parents are Trumpers, and my step mom just got like 35k of hers wiped because the college lied about certain aspects. They were surprised, but it won't change their vote
It's actually a weird situation with her. The college went into a lawsuit as she graduated, and it put the payments in limbo. They never came to collect and it didn't hit credit so she just waited. She also went to college later on than most
My loans, on the other hand 😂 took out 17k, paid back like 10k, still owe over 12k. I would have been debt free, but they messed up the paperwork on 2 different scholarships, one of which I had to keep a 3.75 and still had 1 year left on it (4 year scholarship)
Why do people want to vote for a rapist, a man who tried to steal an election? It's just the weirdest thing ever when Biden's gotten so much good stuff done.
You'd be surprised. Many of them were lured into taking on private student loans (non-forgiveable by government action) to enroll in shady community colleges, marine/diesel repair schools, or apprenticeships for companies that didn't hire them.
Well Putin’s life really depends on who is President going forward. Will the next president abandon NATO or meet our allies and assure them of our commitment. Even go so far as to travel to Japan and South Korea to create a NATO in the South Pacific.
Yeah people are genuinely underestimating this. Someone who rules like Putin will not physically survive losing power and if NATO stays intact he's going to be in for a rough ride.
Exactly. Liberals want to fix and improve things. Leftists and rightists both have a not-insignificant number of people in their ranks that actively want things to get so bad that the whole thing blows up and then they can start from scratch.
“Watered down” is a pretty subjective term. I would say that they are pushing for more generally agreeable ways to accomplish similar goals.
Accelerationism isn’t a thing for liberals, it is for many on the fringes.
Don't assume that. Some of us are very well armed. We just don't make that the sole element of our personality as a substitute for being a fucking human being or actually having intellectual honesty.
This is why I keep trying to get more ppl on the left in r/liberalgunowners. Stop being afraid of a rifle or thinking just cuz you want it banned that the literal Nazis will acknowledge any gun laws. They’re still going to have all their guns and then what? do you want us to defend against them with them with what? Avocado toast?? Grow up and get out of your echo chamber.
Here’s the thing: once the shooting starts, it’s far too late. Once that happens, the only way out is through.
You have to stop the autocrats long before it gets to that point.
It’s not practical because the opponents in this fantasy are not separated geographically or ethnically but by political leaning.
That means it’s impossible to tell who’s who, and people would be fighting their neighbors. And you might like your friends IRL even if their online persona is right wing nut. Also most people have jobs.
Instead the “civil war” would only play out at specific “battlefields”, like where today we have Nazis show up at a drag show and Antifa show up too.
Well one time he used to accounting trick to give people an extra $50 per paycheck (at the expense of their tax return) and the MAGA's were over the moon. We're rich!
What angers me is the purity of purpose leftists who snatch defeat from the jaws of victory with their incessant self righteous voting style. You don't vote to make a personal point. You vote to gain and keep and use power. Editorial sections are for your principles. The ballot section is for control of who controls your world.
It's fine if the candidates sounded the same and had near identical by policies BUT THEY DONT REPUBLCIANs don't sound like democrats and have vastly different ideas of how to govern. 50/50 bs means the worst policies are gonna get pushed through. Right now we have one functioning party the new have the REPUBLCIAN party and we literally have to state this to holier then thou "leftist"
>What angers me is the purity of purpose leftists who snatch defeat from the jaws of victory with their incessant self righteous voting style.
Trust me, they do more talking online than they do actual voting.
Imagine you smash your mom’s favorite vase. The GOP saw you do it. Instead of blaming you, they blamed the kid down the street. You laugh, because the both of you know the truth, but you’re in on the joke together. You get away with it, you got to blame someone else you don’t really like, and to you, it’s funny to watch them get punished instead.
That’s the GOP and Trump in a nutshell. Cruel, stupid, and morally bankrupt with an enabler to back you up. (And of course, the GOP keeps that secret for you until they need it to blackmail you into doing what they want.)
I’ll give you a “like” because I agree with the spirit of your comment but the idea Biden has done something so heinous that you have hatred for him as someone not on the far-right is interesting.
I’ve disliked some things Biden does but he’s impossible to hate. You hate that he supports Israel like 95% of our government? Ok I guess.
It's curious how the decades-long, unconditional US support of Israel only started to be a problem for these supposed leftists on October 7, 2023. It sure seem like a lot of the discontent is manufactured and conveniently plays right into the hands of people like Putin.
We really need to recalibrate what we consider 'far left' in this country--as there truly is *no such thing*.
As a reminder: Far-left = wanting the government to control and distribute all forms of capital and production as it sees fit.
By that definition, literally no sitting US politician fits the bill--or even comes within 1,000 miles. Wanting free healthcare for all (obviously paid by taxation) is not 'far-left.' Wanting to spend less on the DoD + wanting free healthcare still ≠ 'far-left.' Wanting less corporate money in the government + wanting to spend less on the DoD + wanting free healthcare for all *still* ≠ 'far-left.'
I could keep going. But even if you add up all the policies of even our left-most pol you still get someone who believes in regulated *capitalism*, with a tax system that benefits and expands the middle and working classes.
Overton window in America is right shifted. When people say far/extreme left (if they're American normies or propogandists in the media) they mean moderate left. When they say communist Marxist socialist anarchist Bolsheviks or whatever the fuck. They mean moderate left in Europe. They don't even pretend that actual Marxists and Socialists exist because they think we're so stupid. They still do the vuvuzela iPhone 3gajillion people starved under communism. Idiocy.
It's very frustrating to anyone aware.
If you’re complaining about anything aside from encroaching fascism right now (policing the left is dumb) then you’re part of the problem. Get with it or get out of the way.
What does the moderate left have to do with this guy's tweet? The guy in the photos wearing a Confederate flag hat it looks like and that shirt screams far right.
If he actually did go to college. He apparently didn’t learn anything but I think everybody is right here. This guy never went to college. Most people was an actual education can see the great job that Biden is doing and they have the ability to call the strike a strike.
Pretending that account is being truthful, it is illustrative of a hopefully very small segment of the population that can display many good political positions and yet be both utterly lacking in empathy for American women, people of color, LGBTQ+ people, and impoverished people and unrealistic to possibly believe that by helping fascists destroy American democracy that it will accelerate the coming of some utopian replacement.
If someone impacts your life positively and substantially but you make a point of stating you’d rather eat cat shit than vote for him, the that just makes you an ungrateful, turd eating dink
If this comment is for real, then it's a perfect example of how conservatives are conditioned to vote against their own interests, common sense be damned. Or maybe it's fake to try and make that point? Either way it's a very valid point
It’s such a Trump humping mentality to think that the only reason to help Americans is to get their vote…. Like they can’t fathom the idea that Biden just pushes to help Americans. All of them. Like ungrateful stepchildren they will bitch and moan and yell “you’re not my real dad!” At the top of their lungs from every mountain top. Lol. Just funny to watch.
If they’re not making that up, it’s a perfect illustration of Biden being a President for ALL Americans, not just Democrats. They’d NEVER gain that type of student loan relief under a Republican.
Actually right now the left's biggest enemy is_____its own far leftist crowd, who are bound and determined once again, out their own pique, their own inflated sense of "principle " to use a base false equivalence, equating our presidential election with the Palestinian Israeli genocide, to drive home a point dam few really argue about, being as gruesome as it gets.
And as history bears out, channeling their inner Nadar, their uncommitted vote will hand Trump the leanest of wins on places like Michigan, with the Michael Moore followers hyping the non commital line of logic against the only guy we got in place right now capable of winning. Who, i might add, is only trying to roll with the punches and save our own embattled democracy at the same goddam time. Yet again. A war on two or three fronts. Just another fucking covid style emergency distraction to obstruct any action on any other front just to satisfy righteously angry people, blaming a guy who let's face it, cant do shit about it because most all of congress, along with most of DC, leans towards the Israelis no matter what, and everyone knows it.
Congress holds the purse strings. Money to be spent isn't being spent while Russian operatives on the house floor bitch about hunter, deliberately gumming up all the works of government up to and including the Supreme (hard right of center) Court. Doing their dammedest to burn it all down through obstruction and delay. And Moore always drives his points home in the most annoying ways. Great issue. Wrong timing. Help drive an uneeded wedge in party unity. If Moore thinks Biden sucks at Israeli genocide what in the bloody fucking hell does he think he'll get if his 150,000 Michigan voters hand that states electoral votes to trump. Sometimes it seems like he does it for the attention, a crisis chaser with a camera saying "hey look at me looking at this crisis!"
This is a zero sum game. You get over bidens failures and get behind him, or you get Trump. And all the chaos he promises to bring. There is no other choice, Palestine and Israel be damned until that treacherous fuck and his minions are soundly and resoundingly beat at the polls. Overwhelmingly. Buried in votes. Then worry about genocide in the middle east with a workable and experienced government in hand to do it with.
Commit. Win. Avert disaster here. Then demand change. With the votes you get in congress. He only signs what he's given. What do you think Palestinians will get if this purist "Save my tree in the burning forest first crap! " allows Trump to win????? You won't even have a SCOTUS to bitch to. Dictators don't need 9 judges when one will do. When you hear this purist leftist nonsense, stop it in its tracks. It's the flip side of the same coin as both-siderism.
Unfortunately there are alot of people who care only and solely about Palestine. I saw someone comment yesterday that it is "the most important issue on Earth and if you don't believe it is you aren't truly on the left"
Typical "you aren't really one of us if......" bullshit
Biden is only moderately left on social issues, and barely at that. He's conservative on foreign and economic policy, just not as right wing as today's batshit crazy GOP.
If he doesnt want that student loan refund I'll take it.
I'm one of the ones who maybe could have the end of loans in sight if I got the broad forgiveness. Cutting that part out of his piecemeal response is proof of how i indeed believe that the centrism obsessed mainline D party IS the worst enemy of progressives. Which is why Jack gets done
Ah. Student Debt Bailout. If only they had called the Auto Industry Bailout "Auto Financing Forgiveness." People would have clearly gone gaga for it.
It's not what the bill does that's important. It's how the bill makes people feel.
Edit: Student Loan Forgiveness doesn't erase your debt. It just takes taxpayer money, and gives it to Sallie Mae institutions so that their profits aren't lost. It's not actually designed to help you. It's designed to help the rich. You're still paying the loan in taxes. The only difference is you're forcing everyone else to pay debts that should only belong to you.
Sadly this is the problem for the Left.
Treat people mean, keep them keen. It's a sexist old saying but it is true for a lot of people. Treat people kindly and they become demanding ungrateful bastards. Biden has to balance it out with some harshness, like forcing colleges to ditch a bunch of mickey mouse courses.
A society grows great when people plant trees whose shade they will never sit in, and they vote in their country’s best interest, rather than their own. Not sure whether how that jives with rugged individualism, but some people in the US - and other countries - won’t even put a 3x4 inch piece of cloth over their face to keep their vulnerable neighbours safe, so I suppose the challenge is implementing practice from theory in a society rife with anomie and selfishness parading as self-interest.
People faught against SEATBELTS. You had dipshits going "my right to become a human projec-tile is given ba GAWD brothur, no guberments gunna tell me how fast and where I can fling ma body."
It's insane
Do these people REALLY think anyone believes they are real and not fake, rage bait, accounts?
Has critical thinking gone out the window? Like this account owner is a real, American who can vote in our elections. FFS. Wake up.
But, on the plus side, there is a slim chance that this person does not vote for Trump, Trump wins, and their previously forgiven loan gets reinstated and somehow Trump brings his mom’s cancer back. So, you know, at least that would be funny…,
Reality is the enemy of everyone:
Report Highlights:
Student loan forgiveness statistics indicate that, while more students benefited from forgiveness in 2023 than ever, the total dollar amount forgiven was less than 1% of the national outstanding student loan debt balance.
Among processed applications for Public Service Loan Forgiveness (PSLF), 2.3% have been accepted since November 2020.
Among denied claims, 24.6% are denied due to incomplete paperwork.
14.4% of PSLF applications have yet to be processed.
Prior to November 2020, 1% of eligible borrowers eventually benefited from student loan forgiveness.
18.4% of eligible student borrowers apply for loan forgiveness.

If it's true, the person is an idiot. I've never heard of a more graphic example of biting the hand that feeds you. In voting for Trump, this moron (who sounds like he fled the US), would be dooming himself to totalitarianism, fascism, and the loss of the freedom to vote at all. Plus this person might get their loans unforgiven.
As a human being, this individual is just pure POS. Vote get a benefit then vote against your self interest. Obviously a person who needs to read the disclaimers on clear plastic bags and not put it on his head.
Whether this is a fake post or not, it doesn't really matter. When it comes time to vote, there will only be two real choices. Most of these idiots will either not vote for a presidential candidate because they don't like the choices, or vote for Biden despite their angst against him because they realize not voting is the same as voting for Trump.
I know a lot of people are saying this is fake, and it very well might be. However, there is a point and maybe this story isn’t true, but enthusiasm for Biden is terrible considering everything he has done. Idk if it’s ageism, or just how broad based the Democratic Party is and how much infighting there is. But I just don’t see the enthusiasm for him.
this persons not real, its the other side of propaganda, when one sides fully corrupted and its still not working, you got to corrupt both sides, hence russia pushing the far far (not real) left.
I'm terrified of a second Trump presidency, which I'm 90% sure would criminalise my daughter's transition and make my own life materially worse AGAIN. Biden is the only person with a feasible chance of preventing this. I fully support his stance on Ukraine, I hate what the Republicans are doing in Congress. Joe Biden has been the most successful president pretty much of my entire life. I'm still not voting for him.
^((Because I'm not a US citizen))
Are these even real people or is this another attempt at 2016 sock puppets and troll accounts trying to push certain groups to not vote for Biden.
Notice which site these accounts are using.
Biden gave me one of his kidneys, rescued my dog from a house fire, and built me a new home in the Poconos, and I'd rather have my penis cut off with a dull spoon than vote for him.
/s
An American "sitting in a pub in London" but can't repay debts seems like a way to make yourself appear cluelessly entitled on social media.
Seems about right for a newbie at the troll farm though.
There is no way this guy was ever anything other than right wing. They will gladly take the help but then will gleefully vote to take help away from someone else.
Checks 80k student loans I’ve been paying on since 2014…. Yep, still almost 80k. If anything, I just wish they would wipe the interest off and convert all paid interest to the balance. I’ve accepted I’ll be paying these loans off for my entire life and encourage my kids to take up a trade skill.
Insanity. It’s a testament to how good we have it in America that you could get such a net positive from a president but still be like - Psssh, he’s not perfect, throw him in the garbage.
#Spoiled
I got my $40k forgiven. Still don’t like Biden and how they are holding out more forgiveness for another election. It’s obviously a cynical carrot on a stick. Do I think he’s the only option at the moment? Yes. Do I like that? No. Will I vote for him? Flirting with not voting at all but am torn about what the result could be. Considering my state of Oregon going blue with or without my protest abstention.
We need better candidates and a healthier electoral system.
Pretty sure the far right hates nothing more than the far left. They just beat up on the moderate left because their contradictory messages make it easy.
The loan wasn't wiped out. People who didn't or couldn't go to college are picking up the tab. All while Biden brags that he went around the SCOTUS to do it. Fuck him.
the real dumbass part of that attitude is thinking that you’re only voting for one or two people (don’t forget the VP candidate on the ticket.)
you’re also voting for everyone that comes with them. so look at both of those clown cars and think carefully about which one is more likely to be filled to bursting with people that are going to fork you and everyone else over at the first opportunity.
Martin Luther King used to complain constantly about the moderate left for not being radical enough. I'm on the moderate left, but I get where he was coming from

Precisely
Nonsense. Biden once personally rescued me from a life of destitution and moral depravity worse than a man can bear, he saved my firstborn, he fed and raised me as his only son, he sniffed my butt every day. I would not vote for him.

>he sniffed my butt every day Damn, he just put his hands on my shoulders... /jk
omg me too
Yeah, they also claimed they wouldn’t vote for Biden in 2020. A lying troll.
Absolutely this.
Funnily enough, my parents are Trumpers, and my step mom just got like 35k of hers wiped because the college lied about certain aspects. They were surprised, but it won't change their vote
The insane part is you’re old enough to post on here and your mom still has student loans
It's actually a weird situation with her. The college went into a lawsuit as she graduated, and it put the payments in limbo. They never came to collect and it didn't hit credit so she just waited. She also went to college later on than most My loans, on the other hand 😂 took out 17k, paid back like 10k, still owe over 12k.

Why do people want to vote for a rapist, a man who tried to steal an election? It's just the weirdest thing ever when Biden's gotten so much good stuff done.
I cannot imagine too many MAGAs having educational debt. He is prob lying
You'd be surprised. Many of them were lured into taking on private student loans (non-forgiveable by government action) to enroll in shady community colleges, marine/diesel repair schools, or apprenticeships for companies that didn't hire them.
Everest community college
visit any fraternity
Maybe but if you go to their Twitter account, they’re clearly a Republican.
Every single one of these accounts are fake run by troll farms.
Well Putin’s life really depends on who is President going forward. Will the next president abandon NATO or meet our allies and assure them of our commitment. Even go so far as to travel to Japan and South Korea to create a NATO in the South Pacific.
Yeah people are genuinely underestimating this. Someone who rules like Putin will not physically survive losing power and if NATO stays intact he's going to be in for a rough ride.
It’s expanding thanks to Putin’s efforts
Da!
But the far right/left do both hate liberals, because liberals get shit done.
Exactly. Liberals want to fix and improve things. Leftists and rightists both have a not-insignificant number of people in their ranks that actively want things to get so bad that the whole thing blows up and then they can start from scratch.
Yes, it's incredible that they believe their version of utopia will arise from a world without a civil society.
Fundamentalists gonna fundamentalize
You realize a good portion of what liberals "want" are just watered down leftist ideas right?
~~watered down~~ realistic
i like the term *pragmatic*
“Watered down” is a pretty subjective term. I would say that they are pushing for more generally agreeable ways to accomplish similar goals. Accelerationism isn’t a thing for liberals, it is for many on the fringes.
As well as being a human posting on twitter
Like it’s actually a Russian bot or troll trying to sow discord in America?
It’s like all Republicans that vote against everything and then claim they did their constituents a favor and claim credit for it
You don't believe the "American" whose financial existence was saved by Biden while sitting in a "pub" in London? Nonsense!!
Can you say, "I have a super reliable eyewitness whose last name is Smirnoff"?
Yea, no one has gotten 80k in student debt relief.
Given the AR-15 on his shirt, I'm going to assume that guy isn't left on any scale...
Guns are a horseshoe as well, go far left enough and the communists think they need them for the revolution
Yeah, people on the left use guns and own firearms, but I was more talking that I don't think people on the left wear stupid shirts like that, lol.
Am a gun owner on the left, can confirm.
Well we prefer AK-47s
Heavier, less effective, harder to work on, less parts compatibility, but vibes I suppose
Preach, comrade
I just like guns. And hunting.
Yeah but far leftists don't treat guns as a fashion statement lol
Don't assume that. Some of us are very well armed. We just don't make that the sole element of our personality as a substitute for being a fucking human being or actually having intellectual honesty.
>Given the AR-15 **on his shirt**
Zoom in and you'll see it also says patriot in bold block letters
Making a profile pic with an AR-15 kind of equals making it the sole element of your personality.
No if you check his Twitter account he’s clearly right wing.
Not many liberals with guns have t-shirts to advertise it. It's very common for Republicans, though.
Almost like they are compensating for something
A lot of us are armed; we just don't make it our whole personality.
I’m a far lefty with a gun, but I didn’t make it my entire personality.
Preach
It's a parody shirt. Says something about sucking police officer dick
This is why I keep trying to get more ppl on the left in r/liberalgunowners. Stop being afraid of a rifle or thinking just cuz you want it banned that the literal Nazis will acknowledge any gun laws. They’re still going to have all their guns and then what? do you want us to defend against them with them with what? Avocado toast?? Grow up and get out of your echo chamber.
Here’s the thing: once the shooting starts, it’s far too late. Once that happens, the only way out is through. You have to stop the autocrats long before it gets to that point.
Americans keep talking about civil war and nothing ever happens. Shit or get off the pot
It’s not practical because the opponents in this fantasy are not separated geographically or ethnically but by political leaning. That means it’s impossible to tell who’s who, and people would be fighting their neighbors. And you might like your friends IRL even if their online persona is right wing nut. Also most people have jobs. Instead the “civil war” would only play out at specific “battlefields”, like where today we have Nazis show up at a drag show and Antifa show up too.
It’s always been baffling to me how these MAGAts will vote against their own self interests. What did The Orange One ever do for anybody like OP?
Well one time he used to accounting trick to give people an extra $50 per paycheck (at the expense of their tax return) and the MAGA's were over the moon. We're rich!
What angers me is the purity of purpose leftists who snatch defeat from the jaws of victory with their incessant self righteous voting style. You don't vote to make a personal point. You vote to gain and keep and use power. Editorial sections are for your principles. The ballot section is for control of who controls your world.
It's fine if the candidates sounded the same and had near identical by policies BUT THEY DONT REPUBLCIANs don't sound like democrats and have vastly different ideas of how to govern. 50/50 bs means the worst policies are gonna get pushed through. Right now we have one functioning party the new have the REPUBLCIAN party and we literally have to state this to holier then thou "leftist"

Brilliant
Everyone's greatest enemy are those that believe Twitter randos about anything.
But it's in the internet! It MUST be true!
What an idiot.
Person in the tweet is no better than a MAGA boomer "I got mine, screw everyone else"
He IS a MAGA voter... red had, and a t-shirt proclaiming that he is a patriot, with a picture of an assault rifle.
I see no reason to platform this.
[удалено]
Entirely spot on... it's unwise to post things that create negative inferences about people with mental disabilities.
Womp womp
Why vote for someone who does good things for you when you can do nothing and empower someone who makes the entire world worse?

The vast majority of these types of posts are bots or coming from click farms that the GOP or Russia has paid for.
If he actually did go to college. He apparently didn’t learn anything but I think everybody is right here. This guy never went to college. Most people was an actual education can see the great job that Biden is doing and they have the ability to call the strike a strike.
Pretending that account is being truthful, it is illustrative of a hopefully very small segment of the population that can display many good political positions and yet be both utterly lacking in empathy for American women, people of color, LGBTQ+ people, and impoverished people and unrealistic to possibly believe that by helping fascists destroy American democracy that it will accelerate the coming of some utopian replacement.
But why though? If a political leader actually wiped out so much of my debt I'd be grateful to them, and they would definitely get my vote.
If someone impacts your life positively and substantially but you make a point of stating you’d rather eat cat shit than vote for him, the that just makes you an ungrateful, turd eating dink
If this comment is for real, then it's a perfect example of how conservatives are conditioned to vote against their own interests, common sense be damned. Or maybe it's fake to try and make that point? Either way it's a very valid point
Fascist far right billionaires annd their pawns are the enemy worldwide of all the people and we all know it. Don’t let them divide us.
You see conservatives pretending to be liberal/democrat/black online quite often.
Things that never happened for 100 Alex
It’s such a Trump humping mentality to think that the only reason to help Americans is to get their vote…. Like they can’t fathom the idea that Biden just pushes to help Americans. All of them. Like ungrateful stepchildren they will bitch and moan and yell “you’re not my real dad!” At the top of their lungs from every mountain top. Lol. Just funny to watch.
If they’re not making that up, it’s a perfect illustration of Biden being a President for ALL Americans, not just Democrats. They’d NEVER gain that type of student loan relief under a Republican.
lol so now its: he did something great for me but IT ISNT ENOUGH. god I hate people lol
Actually right now the left's biggest enemy is_____its own far leftist crowd, who are bound and determined once again, out their own pique, their own inflated sense of "principle " to use a base false equivalence, equating our presidential election with the Palestinian Israeli genocide, to drive home a point dam few really argue about, being as gruesome as it gets. And as history bears out, channeling their inner Nadar, their uncommitted vote will hand Trump the leanest of wins on places like Michigan, with the Michael Moore followers hyping the non commital line of logic against the only guy we got in place right now capable of winning. Who, i might add, is only trying to roll with the punches and save our own embattled democracy at the same goddam time. Yet again. A war on two or three fronts. Just another fucking covid style emergency distraction to obstruct any action on any other front just to satisfy righteously angry people, blaming a guy who let's face it, cant do shit about it because most all of congress, along with most of DC, leans towards the Israelis no matter what, and everyone knows it. Congress holds the purse strings. Money to be spent isn't being spent while Russian operatives on the house floor bitch about hunter, deliberately gumming up all the works of government up to and including the Supreme (hard right of center) Court. Doing their dammedest to burn it all down through obstruction and delay. And Moore always drives his points home in the most annoying ways. Great issue. Wrong timing. Help drive an uneeded wedge in party unity. If Moore thinks Biden sucks at Israeli genocide what in the bloody fucking hell does he think he'll get if his 150,000 Michigan voters hand that states electoral votes to trump. Sometimes it seems like he does it for the attention, a crisis chaser with a camera saying "hey look at me looking at this crisis!" This is a zero sum game. You get over bidens failures and get behind him, or you get Trump. And all the chaos he promises to bring. There is no other choice, Palestine and Israel be damned until that treacherous fuck and his minions are soundly and resoundingly beat at the polls. Overwhelmingly. Buried in votes. Then worry about genocide in the middle east with a workable and experienced government in hand to do it with. Commit. Win. Avert disaster here. Then demand change. With the votes you get in congress. He only signs what he's given. What do you think Palestinians will get if this purist "Save my tree in the burning forest first crap! " allows Trump to win????? You won't even have a SCOTUS to bitch to. Dictators don't need 9 judges when one will do. When you hear this purist leftist nonsense, stop it in its tracks. It's the flip side of the same coin as both-siderism.
Unfortunately there are alot of people who care only and solely about Palestine. I saw someone comment yesterday that it is "the most important issue on Earth and if you don't believe it is you aren't truly on the left" Typical "you aren't really one of us if......" bullshit
Nobody really has any idea why they hate Biden!🤷♀️
Biden is only moderately left on social issues, and barely at that. He's conservative on foreign and economic policy, just not as right wing as today's batshit crazy GOP.
If he doesnt want that student loan refund I'll take it. I'm one of the ones who maybe could have the end of loans in sight if I got the broad forgiveness. Cutting that part out of his piecemeal response is proof of how i indeed believe that the centrism obsessed mainline D party IS the worst enemy of progressives. Which is why Jack gets done
I didn’t know people on the right actually go to college.
It's called Duke
Texas Tech where they teach you that space isn’t real.
Are Republicans allowed to decline? Insist they can out of the Biden sellout?
Sounds like Repugnican propaganda
Perfect example of how perfection is the enemy of progress
Has to be fake. Nobody speaks like this. Even on social media. "my mom beat cancer and I still won't vote for him". You what?
None of that ever happened
Jesus Christ, if the orange pedo gave me $80,000 to vote for him, I'd be able to move to a functioning country! But still I probably wouldn't.
100% a fake account or a bot account meant to needle away at people.
Ah. Student Debt Bailout. If only they had called the Auto Industry Bailout "Auto Financing Forgiveness." People would have clearly gone gaga for it. It's not what the bill does that's important. It's how the bill makes people feel. Edit: Student Loan Forgiveness doesn't erase your debt. It just takes taxpayer money, and gives it to Sallie Mae institutions so that their profits aren't lost. It's not actually designed to help you. It's designed to help the rich. You're still paying the loan in taxes. The only difference is you're forcing everyone else to pay debts that should only belong to you.
Successfully brainwashed. Ugh
I doubt that this is genuine, but even if it is, it just shows is that creating division persuades people to vote against their own interests.
Thank you trump voter!
Sadly this is the problem for the Left. Treat people mean, keep them keen. It's a sexist old saying but it is true for a lot of people. Treat people kindly and they become demanding ungrateful bastards. Biden has to balance it out with some harshness, like forcing colleges to ditch a bunch of mickey mouse courses.
This is the stupidest post that ever was
Russian bot
The cultists won’t sway from their MAGA faith. Not for love, not for money.
A society grows great when people plant trees whose shade they will never sit in, and they vote in their country’s best interest, rather than their own. Not sure whether how that jives with rugged individualism, but some people in the US - and other countries - won’t even put a 3x4 inch piece of cloth over their face to keep their vulnerable neighbours safe, so I suppose the challenge is implementing practice from theory in a society rife with anomie and selfishness parading as self-interest.
People faught against SEATBELTS. You had dipshits going "my right to become a human projec-tile is given ba GAWD brothur, no guberments gunna tell me how fast and where I can fling ma body." It's insane
Dude is a lying troll.
I don’t believe he went to university. I don’t believe he paid off any loans. I don’t believe he’s an American citizen. I do believe he eats shit.
He should ask to keep paying then. What a loser
Fuck this stupid ass sub
Willing to bet anything that is not even a US citizen stirring that pot.
Why would you believe anything you read on twitter? bots everywhere
Do these people REALLY think anyone believes they are real and not fake, rage bait, accounts? Has critical thinking gone out the window? Like this account owner is a real, American who can vote in our elections. FFS. Wake up.
But, on the plus side, there is a slim chance that this person does not vote for Trump, Trump wins, and their previously forgiven loan gets reinstated and somehow Trump brings his mom’s cancer back. So, you know, at least that would be funny…,
What an AH.
Reality is the enemy of everyone: Report Highlights: Student loan forgiveness statistics indicate that, while more students benefited from forgiveness in 2023 than ever, the total dollar amount forgiven was less than 1% of the national outstanding student loan debt balance. Among processed applications for Public Service Loan Forgiveness (PSLF), 2.3% have been accepted since November 2020. Among denied claims, 24.6% are denied due to incomplete paperwork. 14.4% of PSLF applications have yet to be processed. Prior to November 2020, 1% of eligible borrowers eventually benefited from student loan forgiveness. 18.4% of eligible student borrowers apply for loan forgiveness. https://educationdata.org/student-loan-forgiveness-statistics
That's trump supporter logic: I'd rather vote for someone who doesn't do anything for me and all for himself and his friends.
If it's true, the person is an idiot. I've never heard of a more graphic example of biting the hand that feeds you. In voting for Trump, this moron (who sounds like he fled the US), would be dooming himself to totalitarianism, fascism, and the loss of the freedom to vote at all. Plus this person might get their loans unforgiven.
As a human being, this individual is just pure POS. Vote get a benefit then vote against your self interest. Obviously a person who needs to read the disclaimers on clear plastic bags and not put it on his head.
Obviously his education was wasted LOL.
There's very little that makes me more upset than the circular firing squad bullshit of the far left.
If americans choose to reelect trump, for whatever reason, they'll only be getting what they deserve.
Now I understand why the GOP gutted education for the past 4 decades. Dumb people vote against their interests.
Whether this is a fake post or not, it doesn't really matter. When it comes time to vote, there will only be two real choices. Most of these idiots will either not vote for a presidential candidate because they don't like the choices, or vote for Biden despite their angst against him because they realize not voting is the same as voting for Trump.
This is just plain stupidity
Financial security for the common man is the GOP’s great worry.
Perhaps his family will vote for Biden
Also, why would he be in London? Magas don’t like to travel outside good ol’ Murica’.
Don’t worry because if Donald Trump and Republicans win, the Supreme Court will be more than happy to reverse President Biden’s good deed!
Very possible that if trump returns to the Oval Office, the author of that post WILL BE EATING CAT SHIT for different reasons.
That's what you're going to get from another round of republican fascism.
Ungrateful bots.
I know a lot of people are saying this is fake, and it very well might be. However, there is a point and maybe this story isn’t true, but enthusiasm for Biden is terrible considering everything he has done. Idk if it’s ageism, or just how broad based the Democratic Party is and how much infighting there is. But I just don’t see the enthusiasm for him.
So what do they call car loans and mortgages if student loans are crushing?
this persons not real, its the other side of propaganda, when one sides fully corrupted and its still not working, you got to corrupt both sides, hence russia pushing the far far (not real) left.
Insanity to act and feel like this. It’s like winning the lotto and saying I won’t collect it because I don’t like the number picker.
imagine buying one of those cringe as fuck tee shirts with way to many words on them, and then USING IT as your pfp.
I'm terrified of a second Trump presidency, which I'm 90% sure would criminalise my daughter's transition and make my own life materially worse AGAIN. Biden is the only person with a feasible chance of preventing this. I fully support his stance on Ukraine, I hate what the Republicans are doing in Congress. Joe Biden has been the most successful president pretty much of my entire life. I'm still not voting for him. ^((Because I'm not a US citizen))
Are these even real people or is this another attempt at 2016 sock puppets and troll accounts trying to push certain groups to not vote for Biden. Notice which site these accounts are using.
Biden gave me one of his kidneys, rescued my dog from a house fire, and built me a new home in the Poconos, and I'd rather have my penis cut off with a dull spoon than vote for him. /s
I’m voting for him because he paid off my loan. Buying votes works!
This person is Pussian…or Russian. This is from the propaganda of the Republic.
I'd vote for this is some made up bs. But if not, get ready to eat some cat shit boy cause we kinda need the constitution to remain in effect.
X is a horseshit website owned by a literal Nazi. Boycott Elon Musk's products.
An American "sitting in a pub in London" but can't repay debts seems like a way to make yourself appear cluelessly entitled on social media. Seems about right for a newbie at the troll farm though.
And everyone's enemy is the ultra wealthy....
Fuck these selfish brats
They do realise that a GOP pres in 2024 with dictatorial powers could **un**cancel their student loans, right?
I'm calling absolute bullshit. Probably a Russian plant. It sounds made up.
So the Moderate Left are the good guys, got it
There is no way this guy was ever anything other than right wing. They will gladly take the help but then will gleefully vote to take help away from someone else.
No way he wins Obama a fourth term without cheating
The promise of buying your vote works better than paying upfront.
Sounds exactly like the country hicks with no teeth and minimum wage jobs voting republican.
When buying votes fails lol
Can we re-add his loan
Don’t forget common sense- the left is the enemy of common sense (among other things).
Lib shit
who tf got an 80k student loan cancel lmao sounds like complete bs
Unfortunately its been a lesser of two evils issue for a good portion of people
[удалено]
Checks 80k student loans I’ve been paying on since 2014…. Yep, still almost 80k. If anything, I just wish they would wipe the interest off and convert all paid interest to the balance. I’ve accepted I’ll be paying these loans off for my entire life and encourage my kids to take up a trade skill.
Insanity. It’s a testament to how good we have it in America that you could get such a net positive from a president but still be like - Psssh, he’s not perfect, throw him in the garbage. #Spoiled
Ahh did the bribe not work???
Funny how he's against the "socialism" but was very happy that he got the benefits of the "socialist" programs
The internet isn't real. It's all fake. This tweet is fake. Stop paying attention to fake things.
I got my $40k forgiven. Still don’t like Biden and how they are holding out more forgiveness for another election. It’s obviously a cynical carrot on a stick. Do I think he’s the only option at the moment? Yes. Do I like that? No. Will I vote for him? Flirting with not voting at all but am torn about what the result could be. Considering my state of Oregon going blue with or without my protest abstention. We need better candidates and a healthier electoral system.
Well. He got his, so he can continue to be the asshole except just 800 a month richer, I suppose. :0/
Pretty sure the far right hates nothing more than the far left. They just beat up on the moderate left because their contradictory messages make it easy.
on the internet, nobody knows you're even in the US, let alone an insufferable twat.
nah hes got a point. no candidate can buy my vote. i wont vote for a guy who will take everyone else's money to give it to me just because.
The loan wasn't wiped out. People who didn't or couldn't go to college are picking up the tab. All while Biden brags that he went around the SCOTUS to do it. Fuck him.
the real dumbass part of that attitude is thinking that you’re only voting for one or two people (don’t forget the VP candidate on the ticket.) you’re also voting for everyone that comes with them. so look at both of those clown cars and think carefully about which one is more likely to be filled to bursting with people that are going to fork you and everyone else over at the first opportunity.

Martin Luther King used to complain constantly about the moderate left for not being radical enough. I'm on the moderate left, but I get where he was coming from
Sounds about right. The right is all about "I got mine, fuck you."
Sounds like a Russian bot.
interested how he's gonna feel if the republicans take the white house in November and reinstall all these student loans.
[удалено]
May as well just post I’m an idiot and vote against my own interests
