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.

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

    lmao

    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.

        No, I accuse people who materially contribute to the victory of fascists as being fascist supporters, which they are. Sorry that’s too complex for you to parse.

        A lie, same as it was in 2020.

        Oh, okay, so it doesn’t actually matter what left positions the Dems ran on, you’d just assert that it was all lies anyway.

        What a surprise. This is my shocked face.

          And by an astounding coincidence, you identify anyone to your left as “materially contributing to the victory of fascists.”

          Oh, okay, so it doesn’t actually matter what left positions the Dems ran on, you’d just assert that it was all lies anyway.

          I mean, I’m not the one who promised to revisit the public option and then didn’t.

          This has become a slapfight. I’m out.

            lmao

            Believe it or not, you and the rest of the “Sink the Dems at any cost” brigade are not the entirety of the left. Shocking, I know.

            I mean, I’m not the one who promised to revisit the public option and then didn’t.

            Wow, why didn’t the Dems use their 50-50 ‘majority’ to pass a deeply contentious bill that would have been unable to get all 50 Dems onboard regardless of the compromises involved, yet would need a 60-40 majority to pass???

            Of course, if they’d tried, you would have condemned them for trying and wasting time on a meaningless gesture (which would be true) instead of doing real work.

            The only thing you care about is making sure “the LIBS” lose and the fascists win. Because if the fascists are in power, you feel heroic when you roleplay as a leftist. The blood of minorities makes for great cosplay makeup, it would seem.

                Sorry that you find details like “The actual composition of the Senate” to be troubling and mentioning it to be ‘a slapfight’. Reality is troublesome to the whole “Dems are worse now than they’ve been in decades!” narrative, I know.

                  Doing the lords work, my man.

                  I’m so sick of watching these fascist fucks do their best to replace the empire they don’t like with an empire they do like, all the while cosplaying as a modern leftist. These guys are left wing like Stalin was left wing.

                  You’re trying to bait me into resuming your slapfight. No. Get your attention from someone else.
