I skimmed through a few of the whps economic focused ones and no one says anything remotely close to what you claim.

FYI Biden never said anything along the lines of what that comment above pins on him. Its exactly why I asked for an example. People will blatantly lie and make shit up because they know most people wont actually go check. This guy said Biden responded to a question in the debate saying “No the economy is doing fine” when that couldnt be further from the truth. Biden highlighted the shit econonmy he was given from trump then the work he has done to improve it then said “But there’s more to be done. There’s more to be done. Working class people are still in trouble.”

Give me an actual example that I can look up because I dont think this is true.

When I first read this comment I actually believed I had missed where biden said this and I believed you. But then I went back and reread the transcript of the debate. Nowhere does biden say anything remotely close to this.

Here is Bidens respond when he is asked about the economy:

Let’s begin the debate. And let’s start with the issue that voters consistently say is their top concern, the economy. President Biden, inflation has slowed, but prices remain high. Since you took office, the price of essentials has increased. For example, a basket of groceries that cost $100 then, now costs more than $12; and typical home prices have jumped more than 30 percent.

What do you say to voters who feel they are worse off under your presidency than they were under President Trump?

BIDEN: You have to take a look at what I was left when I became president, what Mr. Trump left me. We had an economy that was in freefall. The pandemic are so badly handled, many people were dying. All he said was, it’s not that serious. Just inject a little bleach in your arm. It’d be all right. The economy collapsed. There were no jobs. Unemployment rate rose to 15 percent. It was terrible. And so, what we had to do is try to put things back together again. That’s exactly what we began to do. We created 15,000 new jobs. We brought on – in a position where we have 800,000 new manufacturing jobs.

But there’s more to be done. There’s more to be done. Working class people are still in trouble.

I come from Scranton, Pennsylvania. I come from a household where the kitchen table – if things weren’t able to be met during the month was a problem. Price of eggs, the price of gas, the price of housing, the price of a whole range of things. That’s why I’m working so hard to make sure I deal with those problems. And we’re going to make sure that we reduce the price of housing. We’re going to make sure we build 2 million new units. We’re going to make sure we cap rents, so corporate greed can’t take over.

The combination of what I was left and then corporate greed are the reason why we’re in this problem right now. In addition to that, we’re in a situation where if you had – take a look at all that was done in his administration, he didn’t do much at all. By the time he left, there’s – things had been in chaos. There was (ph) literally chaos. And so, we put things back together. We created, as I said, those (ph) jobs. We made sure we had a situation where we now – we brought down the price of prescription drugs, which is a major issue for many people, to $15 for – for an insulin shot, as opposed to $400. No senior has to pay more than $200 for any drug – all the drugs they (inaudible) beginning next year.

And the situation is making – and we’re going to make that available to everybody, to all Americans. So we’re working to bring down the prices around the kitchen table. And that’s what we’re going to get done.

TAPPER: Thank you.

Can you show an example where either Biden or Harris said Americans aren’t struggling?

The war is pretty much over most idf troops have been moved to Lebanon. Only a few brigades remain in Gaza. There is still fighting, Hamas just posted a video of their operations and some attacks.

With trump in power they are going to wish they accepted the early ceasefire deal.

Bidenomics is a right wing attack phrase and I’ve never heard Biden say the economy is doing great. So not sure what your point here was.

Do you have any examples of Dems telling people things werent bad? The closest things I can think of is dems saying we know things are bad but we are working on them and they are getting better. It feels like a republican talking point that dems think things are good.

Dems suck at combating Republican rhetorical strategy. I see so many leftists blaming Biden and Harris but Biden and Harris were good politicans with bad messaging. Leftists should have been yelling every single one of their wins from the rooftops but instead they were stuck rolling with republicans in the mud arguing about pointless shit like hatians eating dogs and hunter bidens cock.

I think dems need to seriously look at their strategy and leftists online need to think about how they are going to better boost that messaging. Currently republicans are in line and organized. When something happens you immediately see all the big republican figureheads talking about it and pushing the message out to their viewers and then their viewers go out and inject that message into every conversation.

I know they are the same people but it’s still two different things. A persons carbon footprint is different to the business even if that person is the ceo

There are so many better climate change comparisons than this yet I keep hearing this stupid one repeated over and over. Ultimately it doesn’t matter than billionaires personally emite more carbon than “the average person” because even if they dropped that stat to match the average there would be absolutely no difference.

Target the biggest carbon emitters which is businesses. Every time carbon emissions is brought up it should be in the context of making businesses emit less carbon. Make them pay for emitting carbon, give tax credits for green technology that stuff will be infinetly more effective that targeting specific people.

I don’t care that Taylor swift took a jet to her concert its not her issue to fix. Its the responsibility of the government to solve this through strong environmental policy. Government policy changing incentives will flow down to the individual and adjust their behaviour instead of a mob trying to shame individuals into changing their behaviour.

Be interesting, do cool things and invite someone in to join you. Thats damn solid advice.

People often think their hobbies are boring or to niche and think that no one will care about them. But passion is infectious and by sharing things you think are interesting you will eventually find someone who wants to share it with you.

Growing up is hard. My dad was my hero, now im older and I can see all the flaws he has. When you have a drunk in the family it’s so hard to balance keeping yourself safe and helping them. My dad managed to give up alcohol at 60 and now he’s 2 years sober. I couldn’t be prouder of him for it.

Also claim that any history that doesn’t fit their narrative is biased western history.

The military does have a responsibility to protect its civilians. Because hamas choose to start a war and continue to conduct war with blatant use of the civilian population as cover we shouldn’t be surprised or shocked when civilians are caught up in the crossfire.

The death toll that’s given by hamas doesn’t include militants which is why it must always be mentioned. 40,000 deaths sounds worse than 20,000 military casualties and 20,000 civilian casualties. Especially when we know that the hamas military strategy is to maximize civilian casualties.

Just by reading the first sentence I can tell you that you will enjoy Linux. Don’t worry about all the technical stuff it seems complicated because you don’t know it. Just install Linux and use it and you will learn what all that stuff means. Since you’re building a new PC you got nothing to lose from trying out a few different Linux distros.

Interesting. I can’t wait for more information to come out. The outlets reports don’t seem very useful so we’ll have to wait and see if the drones were able to saturate Israels air defense.

That was amazingly unhinged. I did not expect that ending.

So impressive. That’s a great photo.

Do you want this social media to be for your family to use only with family members or for them to use with family and beyond?

Revolt could be good as a local family group chat if you like the discord style. You’ve probably already tried it but Pixelfed/mastodon/misskey sound like the easiest to get family on board with and seem like they would be good family social media platforms IMO.
