Far more rapid escalation of violence against minorities domestically. Fascist militias will be given the libidinal privilege to violence by their god head sitting on the oval throne.

Trump was already president and none of this happened. Biden has oppressed Muslims and immigrants equally or greater than Trump. Women lost abortion rights under Biden, who refused to do anything about it like pack the courts or pass a bunch of legislature protecting it

You are getting sheepdogged by hyperbolic fearmongering. Muslims who face a lot of hate under Trump are the most outspoken in boycotting Biden for being a genocidal fascist. What is this liberal crap seriously why do we have to go through this “harm reduction” shit nonstop from you people

Bruh all I'm saying is dont be dismissive of peoples concerns about domestic racial violence. Under Trump those hate groups were marching around proudly. Trump also was the one who appointed the the judges who repealed abortion.

I'm not saying voting for Biden is less wrong or the right thing. But you have to keep in mind that these are real fears that American minorities have about Trump. Bless the american Muslims for standing up against Biden but for the love of god dont demand it of other minorities unless you're one of them.

I am one of them, and the most handwringing pearl clutchers are all white boomer liberals in my experience, MSNBC watchers and radlibs

That's not true, Biden has broken records (including Trump's records) with police funding and killings have gone up since 2020 https://www.statista.com/statistics/1362796/number-people-killed-police-us/

I was talking about fascist militias not the police. You can expect police funding and violence to go up regardless who's in charge.

What's the difference, and how many minorities did larping militias kill during the Trump years?

You can expect police funding and violence to go up regardless who's in charge.

That undermines your point not mine, also it isn't true, the number of killings per year was stable between Obama and Trump, until Biden came in and killings shot up

Please bother to read context of the thread and understand that I meant to explain why someone might be afraid of Trump being reflected. Not that Biden is actually better or worse in any way.

Fascist street gangs and right wing militias are scarier to the average american than the police. You can argue that its misplaced fear all you want but it doesnt change what people think.

For that matter I doubt that police killings went up because of Biden and not because of knock on economic effects of covid. In this neoliberal political economy the president has all the power in international relations but next to none domestically.

The average American can't be scared of those militias because the average American doesn't think about or know anything about those fascist street gangs

For that matter I doubt that police killings went up because of Biden and not because of knock on economic effects of covid

So Biden giving the police unprecedented record federal funding has no effect on their conduct or reach?

In this neoliberal political economy the president has all the power in international relations but next to none domestically.

Again, this undermines your points, not mine
