      Joe Biden is dictates more of your life. He wants you to drive electric vehicles, he wants to control the stoves you buy, and wants to tell business how much they should charge, he expects to pay for green energy. He is a boondoggle president who believes he knows better than the people on the ground. EVs is one of his boondoggles, leading car manufacturers to rush in to take advantage of the next big thing with tax incentives. EVs are a money loser. We have one EV manufacturer here, despite local and federal tax incentives, went bankrupt. Trump is the man of the people in more ways Joe Biden is. Joe Biden is an elitist. He wants to run everybody’s life on the planet. He wants to dictate the politics of foreign countries. That is a dictator. Joe Biden’s policy is elitism. Elitism is dictatorship.

        Joe Biden does not stand in the way of democratic processes. I assure you, he won’t falsely claim voter fraud or incite an insurrection if he loses the election. Trump has done that in the past. He’s also proven to be a liar and a rapist. Besides, elitism does not make a dictator. While dictators usually are elitist, in actuality, they define themselves through a totalitarian regime aka them being able to do as they wish without consequences. Something Trump and his Supporters have also claimed they want. Very recently.

        And sure, Biden might not make politics for everyone and he most definitely is not the best man for the job, but he doesn’t just make politics for rich white men as Trump does, who, for example, wants to undo anything the Obama and later the Biden administration did for social security, healthcare, etc. You know, the structures average people profit most of. Those who are not the “elite”. Not to speak about Trump’s and the Republican Party’s stance on various minorities.

          As if democrats never cried rigged elections. Joe Biden is an elitist in democrat clothing. He suggests that large segments of the American population are too stupid or evil to vote. They’re called “deplorables,” useful idiots by Hillary Clinton. These are the elites who tell you to shut up and take it. Does that sound like pro-democracy to you? Nope.

            Sure, Biden might be an elitist in democrat clothing. As I said, he definitely isn’t perfect and definitely not the best man for the job. But you know what he is not? He is not a far-right, misogynist, racist, homophobe, elitist, openly anti-democratic, bought-by-russia rapist, liar and traitor who wears most of those traits very openly.

        I wish he was nearly as useful and as progressive as you think he is, because whatever version of Biden you have in your mind, I want some of that

          Joe Biden is a progressive. He is an activist. He is as much of a progressive as FDR was. We don’t need activism, we need pragmatism, not confusion, and pointlessness.

            This is honestly one of the most stupid things I’ve read in recent times on Lemmy. This take is so brain-dead that I worry for you. For any of what you wrote to make sense it takes a level of propagandization that would make Reagan and orange Hitler cum in each other’s pants. Thank you for setting the bar so high for morons everywhere.

              Amoxtli describes themselves as

              a colective social-capitalist. What does that mean? believe capitalism is the best economic system to have, though not perfect, it can be utilized, based on reason, for the common, & greater good. I abhor the self-centered individual rights of Western culture and law.

              Who the fuck describes themselves that way? This has to either be a troll or a bot. And if it really is a person, they aren’t worth engaging with. Just report, block and move on.
