biden is right wing
The entire US political spectrum is right wing by international standards.
Even by US standards if we go back a few decades. HW negotiated a ceasefire in Israel, and sectors both sides spent time and money trying to dismantle the nuclear arsenal. Biden is “modernizing” it. He’s genuinely to the right of the Republican Party just a couple decades ago in many ways.
He is. But Trump and the other Republicans are fascists and even further right wing.
Same. I was also banned from the climate sub for disagreeing that humanity is good for the planet lol.
Whatever Biden is is better than dictator trump
sure but thats a very low bar

Wear your fake internet demerits as a badge of honor: they suggest you’re not being tailist.
Between his border policy, his climate policy, and his foreign policy he's really fulfilling his campaign promise!
"Nothing will fundamentally change."
Unfortunately we proved just before the midterms that there's a very linear inverse correlation between gas prices and perceived job performance. Refilling the strategic petroleum reserve is electorally smart. Until activists can detach these electoral relaities nothing will change for anyone.
Weird how the only viable electoral strategy is indistinguishable from the status quo of making the rich richer at the expense of the poor.
That's still a bad reason to increase the speed at which we're killing ourselves.
It's a great reason until there's an alternative. As long as voters look to gas prices for their votes, taking action that raises them is politically toxic.
Meanwhile leftists are literally criticizing the Biden administration for high gas prices' impact on the working class.
You want to change it? Let's change it. Starting with activists.
not when the opposition would increase the speed even more.
Cmon guys you're both pretty, lets accept that were doomed and vote Big Asteroid 2024
Really though vote now for the chance to vote again, not that it fucking matters because we're 40 years late to taking any corrective action, but I'd like to vote again
The Bidenomics of blowing up Nord Stream and selling CNG to Europe at extortionate prices.
This is the best summary I could come up with:
The average price of a gallon of regular gasoline nationwide has dropped to close to $3, and analysts project it could stay that way leading up to the presidential election, potentially assuaging the economic anxieties of swing state voters who will be crucial to Biden’s hopes of a second term.
While Biden’s White House has publicly celebrated the decline in gas prices and pledged to help consumers struggling with inflation, the president has largely stayed mum about the oil industry’s record output.
The White House has also largely stayed mum on the oil production boom, instead touting Biden’s legislative record as the most ambitious effort to combat climate change in history and contrasting his stance with that of Trump and other deniers.
The statement praised Biden for protecting more than 21 million acres of public lands and waters and boosting clean energy manufacturing by invoking the Defense Production Act and facilitating private sector investments.
Climate activists say base voters are frustrated by the softening of the president’s stance against fossil fuels, and mobilizing them will prove difficult despite the historic investment the administration is making in green power and accelerating the energy transition.
Climate-conscious voters were particularly dismayed by the administration’s approval of the Willow project, which will allow hundreds of miles of roads and pipelines, airstrips, a gravel mine, and a major new processing facility in the middle of pristine Arctic tundra and wetland.
