If you're really lucky, the government will own you and make all your decisions for you since y'all ain't got much sense and need to be followers and not leaders in your own life.
Stop spreading lies. You mean like The Big Lie?

Of course this board is filled with people hating on Biden. Many of the members thought the Trump administration was the greatest thing since sliced bread. They vowed revenge when Biden got elected - that they would do to Biden what they believe was done to Trump by progressives - constant criticism. Some criticism is warranted, but this board is over-the-top because it’s dominated by political partisans who voted for Trump.
I believe - but happy to stand corrected - they won't agree to lift the debt ceiling enough for the $3.5-4.3Trillion to get in.

Obviously, if we have a good idea our deficit will be $2T this year, and we need to raise the debt ceiling for that, they will. They're just not gonna go ahead and say raise it $6T

Nope -- this has always been a right-leaning forum and the moderators appear to support that tilt somewhat. (You can tell that by the sticky threads they choose to feature.) I think that the number of right-wing fruitcakes that post here is about the same. They just post three or more threads a day so it seems like there are a lot more. Moderates have mostly excluded themselves. There is no point in debating someone who swears by Q-Anon or endorses every conspiracy theory that comes along. The right-wing threads are mostly pointless drivel that often duplicates something already posted or simply amplifies some ridiculous wing-nut publication.

Biden slammers are in for a big, big surprise, less than a year ago. They just don't see it coming!

Will Republicans do what they did back in the 90's? Spend 7 long years trying to find some reason to impeach Clinton, and for having sex with an Aide. In France, this behavior is accepted among their leaders.
no #metoo movement in France, eh?

Covid Thread
Vaccine Thread
POC Rules
Biden's Afghanistan withdrawal going bad

now, perhaps if you reported stuff, it would help. I know that it helps when I report threads. Perhaps you could report the Afghanistan thread (surely the only sticky you would object to), then they might unpin it.

To my knowledge, nobody is getting paid big bucks to moderate. They're not on here playing hall monitor, we the posters have to play our part.

Surely, I would agree that there's 7-10 RWNJ's on here that show their intelligence in their constant topic starting. But there are 3-5 LWNJ's that do exactly the same.

If you want "high-level discourse", apparently you need to participate in the Great Debates forum. That's what the moderators would tell you.

Me thinks you doth protest way too much.

How about you tell us all what wonderful things Biden has accomplished instead of deflecting to "But Trump"!

You also forget that many of your fellow Obama voters thought that he was the Messiah and the Second coming.

Honestly, I don't think he really cares. He is acting like a president who wont be running for reelection.. but that could be just me over thinking.
Biden said only one term before the Election.
Where aew the other 30% of the Left, Instagram, Facebook?

Of course, the vast majority of the threads on this page were started by DiddlyDumdette and other RWNJs. What do you expect?
So...where's your thread about Biden's accomplishments?
