    Way I look at it, Biden’s still the racist arch-settler who drafted and signed the legislation to pipeline my community to prison for the last thirty years. I have watched literally all of my uncles catch mandatory minimums that saw them carcerally enslaved for anywhere from 5 to 15 years at a time thanks to that blue-blooded motherfucker’s Crime Bill. Why the actual fuck would I ever vote for that man?

    Never mind the fact that the motherfucker still owes me $600, never mind the strike-breaking, never mind the insistence on bloating police departments with military surplus, never mind him and his whole party’s hawkishness-- why would I EVER vote for the man who’s legislature destroyed my family?

      I can’t even imagine how that must feel. It made my blood boil when a lib friend told me I had to vote for him, and that was just because I have relatives who went through bankruptcy after his awful 2005 bankruptcy bill, so having relatives’ lives completely wrecked like that must make it so much fucking worse.

        Forget ‘Jokerfication’, these liberals make me use every iota of self-control I have to not go full Killmonger some days.
