    Not even 10 years ago tbh… If Biden said this when he was president, Republicans would inexplicably become the number one advocates of healthcare and childcare and screech endlessly about him being a warmonger for several news cycles.

      It’s not “10 years ago,” because it has nothing to do with time passing. It has everything to do with Republicans doing a coordinated and concerted capture of all media.

      It goes away because they want it to - the silly non-news used to stick around for a month because of their manipulation. It’s important to remember and talk about this widely

          Big strong scary words behind an anonymous handle. You sound real tough.

          The toughest thing you could do would be to write an op-ed and publish it under your real name and talk this tough.

          You can’t. You won’t. Sit down.

              We all agreed on what to do with Nazis 80 years ago.

              Sneak them into the USA to work as high level civil servants and scientists?

              I don’t think that will really help now, tbh.
