I know, it's weird people are acting surprised by his age.

[–] blazera@lemmy.world 3 points 2 months ago (1 children)

Where do you see surprise? What, you think he is just immune from criticism because of his age, so that commenter must simply be unaware that he's old? Theres nothing about biden people are more aware of!

In the way people pretend that he isn't talking like every old person in the entire world talks.

And the way they pretend it's weird that an old man isn't walking as spritely as a 20-year-old.

Don't expect an old man to be a young man.

I aint beating around the bush, show me where you see these things. Show me where they say hes not talking like other old people, show me where they say its weird hes not walking like a young person.

[–] Varyk@sh.itjust.works 3 points 2 months ago (1 children)

You don't hear anybody complaining about how he walks or how he talks?

You aren't reading any of these comments?

That's all I keep hearing references to.

Nobody can keep in mind his administration's policies if he isn't doing cartwheels, apparently.

[–] blazera@lemmy.world 0 points 2 months ago (1 children)

Nah mate its time to back up these specific accusations. Show me where they say hes not talking like other old people, show me where they say its weird hes not walking like young people. Youre gonna realize the difference here

[–] Varyk@sh.itjust.works 3 points 2 months ago (1 children)

Nah mate, if you're having this much trouble reading in the first place, I don't see the point in providing further examples.

[–] blazera@lemmy.world 0 points 2 months ago (1 children)

You havent provided one! Youve accused someone of saying things they did not say, because you cannot defend against what they actually said. Bidens health and mental coherence are being judged as a candidate of US president, not as an old person. Being old does not grant any immunity from these criticisms

Nobody said being old grants you immunity from people teasing you about being old.

One would hope that four surprisingly progressive years would carry more weight than how many somersaults you can do.

As you've pointed out, people really like somersaults.

As you’ve pointed out, people really like somersaults.

What?

[–] Varyk@sh.itjust.works 0 points 2 months ago (1 children)

Somersaults: they're a forward acrobatic tumble.

[–] blazera@lemmy.world 1 points 2 months ago (1 children)

I know what a somersault is. Who the fuck is talking about somersaults?

[–] Varyk@sh.itjust.works 0 points 2 months ago* (last edited 2 months ago) (1 children)

No wonder you're confused if you can't follow a one-topic conversation.

People are insisting Biden perform physically better than not just other old people during this one media circus, but most people, ignoring that acrobatics are not an integral part of being a president.

He's been working well and achieving good results for 4 years.

Let biden continue to do good work.

As you’ve pointed out,

I've been accused of talking about somersaults. Stop this lying shit.

Well we just cant talk if youre gonna bold faced lie about what I say.

[–] Varyk@sh.itjust.works 1 points 2 months ago

If you have so much trouble reading that you become confused by simple sentences and examples, you probably should go practice for a while before attempting conversation.
