    Biden has definitely done better than Trump in terms of racist law enforcement bullshit… but it’d also be appreciated if he did even better.

      I hate that I have to vote for this sack of shit.

      It’s literally no democracy vs. negative democracy.

        This really represents how disenfranchised I feel these days, always having to spend my time voting for the lesser evil instead of someone who actually represents my interests.

          Totally unlike Biden eulogizing white supremacists, calling them good friends. Unlike Biden’s crime bill that defended white supremacy by targeting black men. Capitalism itself is born and upheld by white supremacy, which Biden and Co defend. The only difference is trump is a blatant racist, democrats are covert in their white supremacy.

    The guy injecting billions to hire more cops while funding nearly 100 cop cities around the country is in no position to talk about other presidents. Marginalized communities are still feeling the impact of his crime bill.

    The public demanded accountability and retraining for police officers and Biden’s solution has been to increase their funding. Increase the numbers of police officers on the streets and do absolutely nothing that was demanded of him from the public. In the meantime, deaths occurred at the hands of police have been increasing every year since George Floyd

    Says the guy who was against the civil rights movement because he didn’t want his “grandchildren living in a racial jungle.” Oops, sorry, I forgot I’m not allowed to use Biden’s past to point out his hypocrisy. I’m sure he has totally learned to be more tolerant, like every other old “former” intolerant white people /s.

      No, you can say it. He was wrong to say it in 1977, and it would be wrong if he still felt that way today, 47 years later. Thankfully, he’s changed over time, as people tend to do.
