    (is there some sort of bot swarm happening here)

    Welcome to Lemmy politics 🙂

    I won’t say bots specifically. But yes, there is a PALPABLE tide of accounts that are just going to muster the least-bullshit reason they can find to oppose the idea of the Democrats being good or worth voting for, and repeat it relentlessly, even if the least-bullshit they can come up with doesn’t even approximate making sense. And they never shut up. They’re just sort of stuck on Biden right now because the new Harris talking points aren’t fully marshaled yet.

    Have fun! Try to enjoy it. I like using them to tee up extensive explanations of what is good and right in politics, that would be weird and partisan if I just showed up and started announcing them.

    HEY DID YOU KNOW BIDEN SPENT HALF A TRILLION OF AMAZON.COM’S DOLLARS ON FIGHTING CLIMATE CHANGE? That’s almost ten times what any other US politician has ever done, and that was back in 2009

    See it’s weird if it just comes out of nowhere
