Biden has vowed to a group of his donor that, if he is elected, "Nothing would fundamentally change":

so the title should be amended to: "Biden wins White House, effectively vowing no new direction for US".



So tired of calls to action from everyone related to pulling sentence fragments out of speeches from group figureheads and building a whole narrative around what it could have meant since what was said isn't "shocking" enough in context. Always 3rd (or worse) level references because the source material wasn't clickbaity enough. Often shared with comments like "not sure if this is true but it really makes you think" or other ways of feigning ignorance about what was just said while still saying it.

Isn't there anything good being done by any leaders worth sharing instead of how one found a year old article or tweet that they managed to turn into a "hot take" comment? Or progress on actual efforts instead? Is this thought the real silent majority or is all anyone's ever interesting in shitting on whatever <other guy> says?


After the l4ptop from hell was exposed, we can see he does not care for much other than continuing to enrich his family. There certainly will be new directions towards China, Middle east


Actually, in Biden's defense - while those emails do provide further evidence of corruption, they don't show he doesn't care for anything other than family enrichment. They perhaps show that he care to unduly benefit his son, which is bad, but not the same thing.
