You can try to pick a fight if you want. Just don't expect me to do more than roll my eyes at you and dismiss you as the child you've continued to be.

Since I didn't say that here, I can confidently say "yes."

Insurance is not healthcare. But we live in late stage capitalism, and without insurance there is no access to healthcare at all. Obamacare took care of some of the more egregious problems we were dealing with, but it was clearly not the final solution.

So who thinks that Trump, or indeed any Republican can be trusted to come up with anything better?

At least she's willing to point out the blatantly obvious, unlike a lot of people.

Biden is a capitalist to his core. He was bought and paid for by the RIAA and MPAA for the majority of his career in the Senate. That's never going to change. But as President he's been willing to move to the left, and that's more than I hoped for when he was elected. We can keep pressure on him to do better, but we can't expect a leopard to change its spots.

Why in the world would Fox News report on Biden doing what they want him to, especially when Trump is planning to attack him for his green energy accomplishments?

I think he means drilling for oil and reversing the government's support for clean energy technologies.

I apparently have difficulty empathizing with people who aren't paying attention to what they're voting for (or against).

And you think it's hypocritical that Democrats are trying to do something to help Americans struggling with student loans? Your logic is not clear.

As an American I can't understand how anyone could vote for him once.

And here I thought they were for predatory loans driving people into bankruptcy but not allowing them to offload the debt unless it's a corporation.

See Biden and student loan forgiveness.

I'm pretty sure we've seen a preview of how it will look. They've been using that playbook pretty consistently.

Did you notice how this opinion piece is littered with links sourcing what Kagan is talking about? This article is easily fact-checked. It's not the author's fault if you're not willing to do your due diligence.

So you know about Project 2025, but you're still questioning whether or not they'd go through with it?

Assume they will.

It does in the census, and they use that census data to draw district maps. It's not a coincidence that they've been closing down registration and polling locations in areas dominated by PoC, especially if they also happen to be registered as Democrats.

The man has kept plenty of campaign promises. Pretending he's done nothing for the American people at every level is just dishonest. People have the right to express bullshit if they choose, and I have an equal right to call it out.

I could also be wrong.

Your wish is granted.

Yes, but their viewers weren't told that and don't care to hear it. Fox is a pure propaganda outfit, and whatever the "both sides" morons say, there's no equivalent to it on the left. The settlement they reached was just the price of successfully boosting the propaganda Trump demanded from them.

They'll do it again as often as they have to.
