It really is hard to overstate how sleazy and inexcusable it is to churn out a constant stream of non-news stories (vaguely disguised op-eds, really) about Biden being too old to lead, based on nebulous feelings and speech foibles that aren’t new.
His age isn’t going to change and barring death or calamity, neither is the reality that he’s going to be the nominee up against a rapist fascist who promises to burn everything down. Pretending this is a real choice is journalistic malpractice.
Trump is going to abandon our NATO obligations and whip up a Gestapo to round up undocumented people which will inevitably fail to be limited to undocumented people, and promises persecution of his “enemies” which is anybody who doesn’t kiss his foul ass. Biden is old. These are two comparable problems that pose a dilemma for real voters making a choice of who should be president…
Said no one capable of the most basic judgment calls.

@amaditalks I'm not seeing anyone complaining about his age. Just his aiding and abetting a genocide.
If you cared about genocide, you wouldn't support Hamas.
@TruthSandwich @freakazoid @amaditalks you should literally redirect this message to the Israeli leadership
@TruthSandwich @freakazoid @amaditalks "That's an argument against his leadership, not in defense of Hamas" - apparently even you were able to get it. Congrats!
@mapto @freakazoid @amaditalks
Maybe this has been long on you, but nobody here is defending Bibi. Biden has famously hated the man over course of many years.
But Bibi is not an excuse for Palestinian terrorism. He did not cause Hamas to commit a massacre. Hamas chose to. And now Hamas doesn't like the results.
@mapto @freakazoid @amaditalks
It doesn't matter that Bibi played the Palestinian factions against each other. That's an argument against his leadership, not in defense of Hamas.
In any case, Israel has agreed to a ceasefire deal. Hamas has rejected it. So, I repeat, go tell Hamas that if it doesn't want more dead Palestinians, it needs to take the deal.
Thing is, it does want it. It wants martyrs, not living citizens.
