Former President Joe Biden was diagnosed with an “aggressive form” of prostate cancer, according to a statement from his personal office Sunday, and it has spread to his bones.

“Last week, President Joe Biden was seen for a new finding of a prostate nodule after experiencing increasing urinary symptoms. On Friday, he was diagnosed with prostate cancer, characterized by a Gleason score of 9 (Grade Group 5) with metastasis to the bone,” the statement said.

    You just made a comment about how it’s better now that there’s a Republican in the White House.

    I made a comment about how the press is willing to admit that netanyahu is committing genocide in Gaza now that a republican is in the white house. I wouldn’t call that better.

    Accelerationists like you

    Guess again. I want democrats to be better. You want everyone to be happy that they’re getting worse.

      “It’s amazing what having a republican in the white house will do”

      Guess again. I want democrats to be better. You want everyone to be happy that they’re getting worse.

      Tell me more about how Dems in 2024 were worse than they were in 2000, 2004, 2008, 2012, 2016, and 2020. Please. Go ahead. Say something that isn’t a regurgitation of alt-right talking points fed to gullible performative leftists like you who don’t give a single solitary fuck about the lives of marginalized groups.

      That is, of course, assuming you are genuine in this, and just don’t give a fuck that you’re helping fascists if it helps you feel good, rather than being a believer in fascist ideology yourself.

        I invite everyone reading this to also read the comment that was in reply to.

        Here, I’ll paste it for you:

        Spreading awareness is key. The overton window is shifting massively. Even MSM is starting to cover the genocide without prefacing every sentence with October 7.

        I was saying that the press is admitting that it’s a genocide now that the president is a republican. Of course you know this, but you’re dishonest.

        After all, you’re calling me a fascist for being to your left on genocide. And cancer, evidently.

          I literally called you out as an accelerationist. Or have you forgotten what that word means already? Perhaps your memory is going the route of Trump’s.

          After all, you’re calling me a fascist for being to your left on genocide. And cancer, evidently.

          You supported the election of Trump. You are far to the right of me on the ongoing Israeli genocide, not to mention the ongoing Ukrainian genocide.

          Very telling that you can’t answer how the Dems were “getting worse”, though, typical of the quality of shit you shovel.

          Tell me more about how Dems in 2024 were worse than they were in 2000, 2004, 2008, 2012, 2016, and 2020. Please. Go ahead.

            And a fascist and anything you thought would stick.

            You supported the election of Trump.

            I did not. You assume that about anyone who has any criticism at all of biden before he got cancer and joined your lengthy shit list.

            Very telling that you can’t answer how the Dems were “getting worse”, though, typical of the quality of shit you shovel.

            in 2009, they were actually willing to pass a minimum wage increase and at least pretended to pursue a public option. Something they haven’t done since.

              So now that you acknowledge that you’ve been called an accelerationist in the past, are you just pretending to not remember what an accelerationist is?

              I did not.

              lmao

              I suppose that would require some small amount of introspection for you to realize, and that’s too horrible for you to contemplate.

              in 2009, they were actually willing to pass a minimum wage increase

              … would you like to remind me what the Harris platform was on the minimum wage? Go on. Remind us all.

              and at least pretended to pursue a public option. Something they haven’t done since.

              Both Clinton and Biden supported a public option. But hey, anything to spread misinformation in service to suppressing liberal turnout, right? You have fascists that you want to win.

                I’m saying that you will say anything to demonize your left and only your left.

                … would you like to remind me what the Harris platform was on the minimum wage? Go on. Remind us all.

                And now you’re trying to pivot from the actions of democrats to the campaign promises of one democrat.

                Both Clinton and Biden supported a public option.

                And biden promised to pursue it when in office. Then didn’t. It was a lie.

                  Fascists aren’t to my left, and neither are their supporters.

                  And now you’re trying to pivot from the actions of democrats to the campaign promises of one democrat.

                  Okay, would you like to remind me what the Dem party platform in 2024 was on the minimum wage? Go on. Remind us all.

                  And biden promised to pursue it when in office. Then didn’t. It was a lie.

                  Jesus fucking Christ.

                    You scream “fascist” at anyone to your left.

                    A lie, same as it was in 2020.
