He's not a blessing. He's a warning that something is very wrong, and "going back to normal" is us not heeding the warning.

So what exactly constitutes "not going back to normal"? An overnight socialist revolution?

I am not sure but somewhere in these two lines the logical connection felt missing.


The alternative was the wife of the retard who drove deindustrialization for cheap goods. Maybe they shouldn't put up such a stupid candidate. Oops, they did it again :^)


It isn't that people chose a lesser of evils. It's that poor people in Appalachia enthusiastically voted for a guy who is clearly an elitist.

Violent revolt? No. Us trying to fix our society's broken safety nets and end the influence of corporate greed and foreign countries on politics? Yes.

Next time, we may not be so lucky as to get a Trump. If this goes back to business as usual, we may end up with something far worse. This is my fundamental concern with Mr. Biden. Trump was a warning sign things are coming under strain. One can not have a system where the basic ability to even have kids is a luxury or it can not produce 10 cent masks. We barely escaped total meltdown globally thanks to the Pandemic. Luck doesn't compensate for skill forever.

If things go back to Business as usual after Trump more shit will happen. Protests and violence will become the norm as more and more talk openly about overthrowing the system.


The pandemic has only exacerbated problems within the system that we find ourselves in, to pretend that it somehow saved it is also an incredibly bad take. That is not even to mention it's a logical contradiction for things "to go back to normal after Trump" while also having an increase in protests and violence as people talk about overthrowing the system.

Bringing back manufacturing, an end to outsourcing, end to illegal immigration and the abuse of illegal workers, a fair wage, UHC, and better infrastructure.

Biden isn’t going to do any of that.

I have no idea what you are trying to say here. Are you saying that it’s stupid to think that Trump is a savior? Or are you saying that it’s stupid to think that the pandemic has saved the US or something?

In either case I agree. I’m not saying that Trump is the key but that he’s a warning of the discontent in the nation. A discontent that will continue to rise if nothing is done.
That is not even to mention it's a logical contradiction for things "to go back to normal after Trump" while also having an increase in protests and violence as people talk about overthrowing the system.

I didn’t say that things would go back to normal after Trump. I said that if the leadership goes back to business as usual more protests and violence will continue.

Already 41% of Americans believe that socialism is good for America, 11% of Americans are self-identified fascists. That’s over 50% of Americans who are dissatisfied with the current system, going back to the days of Obama will not fix anything.

Don’t call it socialism. Call it National Populism or something similar.

Because they got butfucked by the Clintons. NAFTA and the other shit they pulled with deindustrialization led to many getting put out of work to pay for the greedy bastards in power.

Why do you automatically assume that just because I attack Biden that it means I 130% support Trump?

The choice should not be Trump or biden. I really don't even see the difference between them anymore.

Doesn't have to be a support of Trump. It's the idea that because Biden supposedly won't do something on Day 1 there's no point to ousting Donnie.

Never said anything of the sort either. What I said is that Biden doesn’t represent nor does he want to change anything but to go back to the pre-2016 days. That would ignore the warning that is Trump, the warning and writing on the wall that you are ignoring because the alternative is worse for you
