we did not luck out and the plan was not “biden bad.”

the plan was “biden is increasingly showing age and is actively losing an election that should be easy to win. polling shows that any other generic nominee does better than joseph robinette biden, so the logical next step is to replace him with his vice president.”

the trouble is we said that, and you didn’t listen. i was actively scoffed at and called a nazi for saying the above. poll data that showed proof of the above was downvoted and called manipulation. even when the donors started stepping down, it was still called fraudulent and irrelevant. i never hand waved someone asking me who replaces biden, and i always responded harris especially as the time got later. and again i was downvoted and scoffed at for that.

this was not luck, and you should start actively listening to people you disagree with more because you display some saddening signs of intentional ignorance here.

i agree with you on paragraph 1, ngl

2nd par depends on what metrics “optimal” describes, but generally, sure :)

yeah for sure the russian bots were pushing rhetoric that would replace literally the worst possible candidate to beat trump with someone better. that’s totally real and a strategy that was happening.

normally wouldn’t be a problem but there have been some significant world events over the past week which has resulted in this community being a hotbed for calls to violence, violating instance rule 1.1

edit: they seem hopefully to be back 🤞
