Joe's activities during this crisis

I follow a Bernie supporter elsewhere. She posted that Bernie is busy doing all sorts of things regarding the coronavirus while Joe is nowhere to be found.

I found a quick few articles that showed that Joe had been in the news talking about what’s going on, offer plans and such.

She said “please don’t post pro-Biden links on my time line”

Alrighty, so I deleted that post, but created a new one without links that simply said that her assertion was wrong since there is evidence to the contrary.

She deleted that too.

First of all, I see evidence on the forums here that refuted that Joe is hiding and doing nothing.

Second of all, Bernie is a Senator and Biden holds no office at the moment. Of course Bernie is busy doing his job. That’s what I would expect him to be doing!

Anyway, rant mode off.

Hope you don’t mind my vent.

If I were to vote in a presidential
primary today, I would vote for:
Joe Biden

We made fun of alternative facts but some on our side are similar to that.
For instance, all this senility talk about Biden, that he cannot stand and can't articulate one sentence. You'd think the last debate would have refuted that but they either found other excuses (he's medicated, he can only function for a few hours) or continued with what betrays what they saw with their own eyes.
Like Trumpers, it's not surprising that they automatically disregard any information to counter their views and other sources because that would require them to admit that they are wrong.
And btw, while BS' fundraising for charities is good, it's ludicrous to believe he's engaged in something groundbreaking with his internet talks while not doing his work in Congress. What is he really achieving there in Vermont besides stroking his ego?

5. Echo chamber

I guess that’s what you would call it. An echo chamber of their own making. Nothing allowed that won’t agree.

She made fun of Biden all through the debate, saying he looked confused and showing pics to support that. Said that Bernie destroyed him.

I mean I’m not Biden’s biggest fan. I’m a Pete person who’s giving Biden a chance. So I’m not a Biden sycophant ignoring everything to the contrary. And I don’t hate Bernie. I’m more annoyed by his supporters than anything. I just don’t see someone who can deliver on all his grand plans, is all

Oh, that’s right. She hated Pete too. She belonged to a group called Queers against Mayor Pete.

Sounds like Trumpers. Just state the way you wish it was and ignore all evidence to the contrary or call it fake. Too much!

is a helluva lot cheaper than private therapy. I've saved $1000s sitting at my computer rather than lying on a psychiatrist's couch.

Funny, I only seem to need it whenever a Republican is in the White House.
