President Biden said Friday he would support a quickly moving bipartisan bill that could ban TikTok if Congress passes the legislation. “If they pass it, I’ll sign it,” Biden told reporters …
I think anything that comes even close to disenfranchising a segment of voter that even hypothetically should lean more towards Biden than Trump in this election cycle is idiotic.
I don’t care about the morality of any of it. Well deal with that on the backend of whatever preventing Trump from taking office looks like. What’s 9 more months of Chinese spyware and stupid dances going to hurt? Nothing. If it even costs Biden 1/4th if a percent in November, don’t fucking do it. Whatever it takes to win and I mean whatever.
Bid n pushing for shit like this when all of our futures on the line is incredibly fucking stupid. People supporting this action are also idiots.
There i elaborated if you need it chewed up and spit in your mouth baby birds.
Couldn’t agree more. I want tik tok banned. I want much stricter and broad as fuck data privacy laws. But doing this now is a terrible idea. Like holy shit wait until next year. It feels like a trap is being set.
Except that the trap is Biden’s political instincts. Biden didn’t win 2020, the BLM movement which had just spent 4 years on the streets resisting fascism, which was engaged and activated, they stopped Trump in 2020. Mass voter activation and outreach; an engaged and activated political population with the singular goal of stopping Trump: they won 2020. Biden got carried along for the ride. Problem we face now is that a Boomer (is he even a boomer?) who got handed second base by another batter thinks he hit a double. His instincts are shit. His politics are shit. He’s a stand-in we all voted for in lieu of voting for something much worse, and that’s precisely the problem. He shouldn’t be making political or campaign decisions, because it wasn’t his politics that got him into office. This is the fundamental problem at the core of blue-no-matter-who as a voting strategy.
Every move Biden’s had to make on his own volition and world view has been a terrible one. He’s a fucking idiot and we’re told were stuck with him? Except that I don’t actually believe we’re stuck with Biden. Its 2020 all over again. Biden’s not going to get elected on his own volition. Its not him being elected (again), its “Not Trump”. We could have gotten an old boot left out in the rain elected in 2020, the anti-Trump sentiment was so strong. Its the same game this year. If any blue will do, we should try a different blue that isn’t working to actively disenfranchise their base. Any generic blue state governor. West coast has plenty, just grab one. But Biden trying to turn the Democratic party to the right is so fucking stupid, its about the only strategy that could be employed that will lose the election for the Democrats. He’s setting us up for disaster and people here are cheering it on.
I don’t think he cares about his popularity with people under 18
People under 18 are by no means the only demographic that’s addicted to tiktok.
This is such a an idiotic take.
People love saying this so they can call something dumb without opening their views to criticism.
Lazy idiotic complaint.

Weird, it seems to be okay to say comments like his when you agree with him.
