    If Biden made a gaff like that, the election would be over. But Plump can say the stupidest shit in the world and nobody notices because he floods the zone with stupid shit.

        Remember when he challenged a guy to a fight and still won the primary? Expectations are low on both sides of the aisle.

      He can say it cos he represent the people who are ok about it, otherwise Biden represent woke, LGBT+ or whatever people who are not ok about it. That’s why if Biden say that it will be over. About if it is stupid or not I believe it depends on the POV, at least RepubliKKKans are open about it, beside Dems being the same but preaching to get the woke vote.

        Biden doesn’t represent the “woke” people. Those are the people calling for Biden’s head on a pike because of the United States’ support to Israel, and they’ve been very vocal about refusing to vote for him.

          Yeah I mean that’s why I said he it’s preaching, he is trying to convince them to vote for him.

          At some point he used to represent them, but yeah the mess about the genocide definitely made a lot of people stopped supporting him.

            So Biden doesn’t actually believe in the freedom to obtain and use contraceptives? He just pays it lip service?

              I don’t know exactly if he really believes it or not, but the fact is: he is trying to convince people with his speech, it’s just how politics work, you convince people to vote for you and then you get or stay in the power, at least at that level it’s how it works.

              Anyway I didn’t get how people take politics so serious, at the end both parties work for the same owners, American polítics its just a well coordinated mimic.

              The owners are the ones who have the money not the ones who vote for them.

                He also took actions which would have a real impact on real people. But since we don’t know if he really believes it, both sides are the same.

                  All this about contraceptives makes me think the following: in states where the facilitation policy is followed, there will be fewer births and therefore those children will not be educated by people of that ideology, in states where they are not facilitated there will be more births. and those children will be educated with another ideology and therefore people who will gradually emigrate to other states, in the long run what this would cause would be greater political power for the Republicans, the main problem with the wokie ideology is that it is being condemned itself to disappear. The wokes should start reproducing and raising their children correctly or they will be condemned to be outnumbered by the republicans, Republicans are definitely thinking about the long run instead of just getting votes today. Not to mention that a large part of the wookies not only cannot have children but they will not have them. Let’s see what will be the stance about adoption but I bet the republican objective will definitely be to avoid wokies to adopt.
