@wyrmeboi What is your solution? I know I keep repeating this question, but it is an important question. Without a solution, a person would simply be promoting chaos, which I imagine would indeed cause lower voter turnout. This is why I spend the time to argue with people that I assess as willing agents of chaos. No solution is a clear sign of people attempting to dissuade.
@wyrmeboi How is pronouncing cognitive decline a political assessment?
What is your solution?
You have Trump who is clearly far worse than Biden who is running with a united party. On the other hand, you have Biden, who is clearly much clearer than Trump who is running with a divided party due to intentional media manipulation by Peter Thiel and other billionaires. You have donors admitting that they are pushing the "dump Biden" movement, and you have detractors who are helping.
@wyrmeboi There is no straw man here, I have addressed every one of your arguments. I am not attacking you, I am attacking your arguments.
Who are you proposing take his place with around 100 days left until the election? What is your solution?
Again, why no Trump in your discussion?
@wyrmeboi You are replying to my statement saying that if you don't know Biden personally, you are forming your opinion based on the statements of others. I believe you and I are saying the same thing. You are not qualified to diagnose the President. Your diagnosis is therefore not worthy of debate or discussion.
@wyrmeboi No, I am countering your point and saying that you are not speaking for all voters. You are using a poll, many of these are incorrect, inconclusive and funded by oligarchs. The only thing I have asked of your is your personal justification for your statements. I have asked you stop using the arguments of others as proof as they are not your arguments. Why are you not referring to Trump at all? Why is your only focus on Biden?
@wyrmeboi Are you getting your opinion from the people you listed here, or are you forming your own? I am confused. It might be all the triangulation.
@wyrmeboi I think you might want to check out the Goldwater rule.
@wyrmeboi "The poll of 1,253 adults was conducted July 11-15, 2024, using a sample drawn from NORC’s probability-based AmeriSpeak Panel, which is designed to be representative of the U.S. population. The margin of sampling error for all respondents is plus or minus 3.8 percentage points."
So, 2/3 of 1,253 people that AmeriSpeak was able to poll answered in the affirmative. This is nowhere near 2/3 of voters. Polls really can't be trusted. See the last election for proof.
@wyrmeboi So you are a neuroscientist attempting to make a professional diagnosis?
@wyrmeboi You are referring to 2/3 of voters. Can you show me actual data rather than conjecture? I will also again ask you what your qualifications are for diagnosing a person with a decline in cognitive functions? What doctorate do you possess? So far as I know, most professional doctors refuse to diagnose a condition without seeing the patient in person.
@GreenCheese I hear you, and I will again point out that you have nothing to say about Trump. You are focused only on Biden, which makes your argument disingenuous.
@wyrmeboi Instead of speaking for the children, why not speak for yourself. Speaking for the children is actually a form of manipulation known as Triangulation. Since we are throwing around terms like gaslighting, let's avoid using triangulation and speak only from our own hearts and minds. I don't need to you speak for others.
@wyrmeboi As a second point of debate, what gives you the right to discard the votes in the state primary elections?
@wyrmeboi Just for the sake of debate, what are your qualifications for diagnosing a person with cognitive decline?
Ok, folks, let's tell some truth for a moment. Unless you know Joe Biden personally, you don't see any signs of his decline. What you are seeing is what other people are saying about his decline. You see carefully curated clips that are deliberately cropped or edited to make him appear senile. What really shows that you are arguing in bad faith is how you refuse to say anything about Trump, though. Trump gets a free pass, while you point at Biden. It is obvious what you are doing.
@MidnightRider I beg to differ. Any amount of rudimentary research would show you that the primaries have already been completed. Your idea of Biden's decline is based purely off of what you are seeing on social media and in the MSM, in my opinion. You are repeating precisely the same talking points, using precisely the same verbiage. I don't mean to be rude, but your opinion does not override my vote.
@MidnightRider @elbutterfield The primaries have already been run. People already voted for Biden and Harris in the primaries. To change the ticket now would be discarding the votes and will of all of the people who voted for Biden / Harris in the primary. You can't just tell a bunch of voters that their votes don't count and that your opinion is more important than their votes. That is a dictatorship. Stop falling for a scheme by Thiel backed donors. This is ridiculous.
@gdirtydime Happy Birthday!
"More than 1,400 Black women and allies have indicated their support for President Biden and Vice President Harris in a letter released Thursday.
Highlighting the fact that millions of Americans cast ballots for Biden and Harris in the primary, the women said attempts to change the ticket “disregard” and “circumvent the will of millions of voters who participated in a democratic process.”
