Neolibs would rather rub elbows with fascists than they would with progressives, let alone an actual leftist.

She didn't threaten to do shit, you just want to exonerate trigger-happy cop gangsters.

There is no fucking way that you can watch that video and conclude that she "brought it on herself".

No arguments from me. I wonder how long Biden's ego has been an impediment to Dems. Definitely for the past month but I suspect it's been a lot longer.

That's great and that's what every committed Dem voter is doing. Given that the race is more about stopping Trump than anything else, wouldn't the best way to approach that be to back the candidate who is most likely to beat him?

If you watch the debate, it's abundantly clear that Biden is not that candidate. Things like optics and vibes shouldn't matter in an election, especially when the other side's policy positions are as abhorrent as Project 2025. Unfortunately, when it comes to courting votes in battleground states, they do matter.

Yeah, sticking with the guy who is losing in all the polls and can't speak would have been a much better option.

Why don't you whip out the ol DSM and read about antisocial personality disorder? Call it psychopathy, or sociopathy, or APD. A rose by any other name.

No one is losing sight of that, they're correctly making the point that there is no justification for bombing a hospital full of patients and that the justification the IDF gave has been found to be false.

If your takeaway from that article is "the debate didn't hurt Biden", the article entitled "Biden suffers less polling damage than expected...", then I have some doubts about your ability to recognize your own bias.

Idk those are young people who already took the time to go to a Hillary Clinton rally. Maybe a few of them were inspired but the vast majority of young voters saw that as the pandering that it was.

Are you speaking as a well-positioned party superdelegate, member of the DNC leadership committee, or mega-donor? Or are you some internet armchair asshole watching this trainwreck from the nosebleed seats?

Oh, I'm neither. I'm someone who is going to be forced to deal with the consequences of this shitshow however it plays out. Since I, through no choice of my own, have skin in this game, I'm as entitled to my opinion as you are. Biden should step aside, and it is the morally correct move to do so.

he's forced

Biden isn't forced to do anything. He wasn't forced to adopt Trump's immigration policies, and he sure as shit wasn't forced to pivot from the strongest issue the Dems have to one of the weakest.

It won't happen because Biden doesn't want to do any of those things. The DNC would rather risk the nation crumbling into fascism than take any of those steps to stop it.
