Biden needs to step down weather this is true or not this isn’t going away. At first I thought Biden stepping down would be a disaster, but now I don’t think so. Most People aren’t paying attention to the election yet. I think Bernie should be the nominee since he has the next highest delegate count, but I don’t…

When I first started acknowledging that I had been assaulted, the story escalated over time as I grew more honest with myself, and braver that people weren’t going to respond with dismissal or cruelty. Like, I literally said “it wasn’t rape or anything” multiple times to people - it took me years of therapy to…

I mean, if you throw a rock at a group of lawyers, chances that it will hit one who is conservative and donates to republican causes is pretty high. Lawyers as a professional group, tend to male, white and often wealthy. Basing your perspectives on what the legal counsel does or did is a terrible look. I mean if we go…

I’m glad she found someone she can comfortably speak with, and who will help her allegations get more coverage than they have. Megyn Kelly is The Worst(tm), but her platform is real.

The vetting process isn’t based on your feelings, it’s based on number of delegates so you can feel how you want for however long you want, it’s not going to change reality. No on was coming after you, or shitting on you, or bullying you. No one was going after committed members of the electorate except you, who went…

Imagine thinking American culture and foodways are superior to anybody elses. Nice culture war dogwhistle racism, by the way.

Or the fact that virtually everyone without an allergy will happily chow down shrimp cocktail or crab legs which is effectively a whole aquatic roach and the legs of an aquatic spider. Nothing like a solid dose of dumb as fuck to ruin an otherwise decent day. 

Except for the billions of humans all over the world whose cultures have been eating bugs as food for thousands of years, sure.

Forbes: “Thirty-eight percent of Biden’s donors got rich in finance—among them ten hedge fund tycoons and six private equity barons.” 

No where did Wang say she was sitting it out. She makes it very clear she’s voting for Biden. Why do we have to attack a woman making an assault accusation in order to vote against Trump?

So much foulness from the people demanding unity. We say we’ll vote for your crappy candidate but an imperfect woman might not deserve to be destroyed until we hear all the information. You clobber us for it. You’re mad at the young, working class, and POC voters whom you still insist on stereotyping as white/male, cal…

Actually, she says she started talking to media at least in January. Her story wasn’t picked up til March. This is important because people are saying she waited til Biden was the clear frontrunner, but that doesn’t appear to be the case.

Lol this isn’t a card game. The Democrats chose the hand they have to play.

Unscathed? I would hope no one in this thread has pinned another human being against a wall and jammed their fingers inside them against their will. If we can’t even to pretend to care about that as like a baseline of conduct, let’s just dispense with the whole claim of giving a shit about women, k?

The problem is that it shouldn’t have taken Tara Reade for people to question Biden’s fitness for office. The other shit there’s actually proof of, his old age and dementia, and his long history of racism should be sufficient.

Biden is a lousy candidate and Trump is possibly the lousiest president of all time. We need Universal Healthcare and a real safety net for all of the people now unemployed. We also need someone to go after and punish the corporate plunderers, donors to republicans and Democrats alike, that are profiting off of the…

They think the lack of enthusiasm for Biden is actually a positive sign, because it proves he’s a Sober Realist, and that Bernie Sanders proved that having people enthusiastic about your candidacy means you can only lose.

Yeah, I’m firmly in “those toilets aren’t going to scrub themselves” mode. Life rarely gives you perfect options, but if you have to pick between unpalatable options, Biden is far, far, far less unpalatable than Donald Trump is. We’re very soon going to be receiving 3,000 daily reminders that the most important asset…

The Biden campaign wants to improve their online reach. Bernie had a good online operation and supporters made a lot of their own online content supporting the candidate that the campaign didn’t even have to instruct them to create. I don’t know why you’re writing an essay getting mad about that point when it’s not…
