I just can't find it in myself to muster enthusiasm for Biden, and if it's that or be silent or shitpost, I often choose shitpost.
Would be open to some non-bernie bro troll reasons to be excited about Biden though. Because so much of it for you guys seems to be about owning the bros.
I don't know anyone who is enthusiastic about Biden. He's an awful candidate. But again, I have a hard time distinguishing between the two selfish septuagenarians who refused to get the fuck out of the way and let legitimate candidates get a chance to run.
I don't agree with a decent bit of Ph's analysis this primary season, especially his love affair with Pete. Pete was another terrible candidate. But he is right in that the progressive movement is doing a solid job of building from the ground up, and that ultimately a Biden presidency and Bernie presidency don't look that different in practice. Both are going to be either a) working with a democratic majority in the house/senate to push progressive legislation; or b) working with a pub majority in the senate and not getting shit done. So the handwringing about how awful Biden is (while ignoring the logs in Bernie's eyes) in the face of the upcoming election doesn't make a ton of sense to me- it looks like arguing just to argue.
That being said, we are going to lose this election whether you shitpost or not, so have at it.
