    If he’s doing such a “good job”, as you say, then where is UBI? Free healthcare? A wealth tax? Income caps? $20/hr minimum wage? Manditory gun registration? Most importantly: Why is life still shitty for anyone who isn’t in the top 1%? Dude isn’t even trying.

          People who think it’s simple to solve problems that are as intractable as those listed above singlehandedly almost deserve politicians like Trump that promise to fix it alone and never deliver anything but tax breaks for billionaires.

              I don’t think you should consider being simple-minded enough to deserve politicians like Trump to be a good thing, but you do you.

                i didn’t say it’s a good thing. i wish we had a society of independent, compassionate people and communities, but like i said, we get the government we deserve.

                  I don’t think “deserve” actually has much to do with what people get. I think you get the government you get unless you’re willing to organize with others and actually push for something better.

                  But you probably think talking trash about Biden on lemmy threads is somehow doing those things. It isn’t.

                    … and if you’re not willing to seize your fate, you deserve what you get.

    • Which politician do you believe would be able to solve all or any of those issues with the razor thin majority in Congress the Democrats have had during Biden’s administration?
