Vox is run by Russian trolls?

No, I saw it, and I was still surprised it appeared so late in the article.

That means an editor decided to draw attention to it. The journalist still buried it deep in the article.

His constituency office in Halle, Saxony Anhalt, has been an arson target, and has had bullets fired through the window.

Weird that this doesn’t come up until the 10th paragraph of the article.

To be fair, the president can and does already assassinate people extrajudicially.

Because he’s winning.

The people calling for Biden to drop out are doing it for one reason: Because they fear Biden won’t win.

It has nothing to do with how moral Biden or Trump are or are not.

Democrats would rather go after The Atlantic, one of the most pro-Democrat media institutions in the country, rather than contemplate replacing Biden.

This won’t end well.

I’ll assume that you’re resorting to ad hominem attacks because you’re unable to attack the substance of what I say.

They were one of those people saying Biden was committing genocide.

Yes, I’ve been saying that for 9 months now. Because it’s true.

So they are just anti-Biden period and switched to a different criticism.

I don’t care about Biden being old. In fact, I think it’s sad that people care about his age more than they care about him committing genocide.

This post is about the Democrats being liars, not about Biden’s age.

There’s literally no reason to believe you are the same person.

My profile on Reddit says “I’m done with Reddit. You can find me on Lemmy.World. Same username.”

I recently switched to Lemmy from Reddit. You can find a much longer post history from me on Reddit. Same username.

His age is not what is dooming American democracy. The Democrats being nothing but lies and spin and PR is what is dooming American democracy.

They serve the same corporate interests as Trump but can’t be honest about it, so they dissemble and evade and lie like it’s a habit.

And now some of their lies are crashing down, and they’re still just trying to spin and PR their way out of it.

If the Democrats had been honest about Biden’s state from the start, they could have rallied behind a replacement by now.

You clearly DO care as you decided to push that particular factoid out of this article.

No, the part I quoted is evidence that he’s probably lying about jetlag.

I don’t care about Biden’s age.

Find a doppelganger who can pretend to be Michelle Obama like Saddam Hussein did.

I don’t care about Joe Biden’s age. I care about the fact that the Democrats are obviously lying to us.

It took days for them to come up with the “jet lag” explanation (though they instantly said it was a cold), and he hasn’t travelled internationally for two weeks. Come on, they’re lying.

For many people, I think the shock of Biden’s debate performance was less about the shock of Biden being feeble and more about the shock of realizing that the Democrats have been lying about his feebleness for so long

From the article:

Mr Biden, 81, last returned from travel on 15 June, nearly two weeks ahead of the 27 June debate.

because you’re fucking moron that forgets things easily!"

It’s more that the worst thing you’re willing to accept becomes the new normal.

And then something that was previously unthinkable becomes thinkable. And then if you accept that because it’s the lesser evil, it becomes the new “new normal”. Continue in a downward spiral.

Look at the state we’re in now, with Trump and Biden. That’s the result of decades of picking “the lesser evil”.

At some point you have to say “no more”.

There were self-immolations in Vietnam that were protests against the US-backed puppet government in Vietnam.

It wasn’t the only thing that shaped public opinion about the war, but it did have a big impact.
