Unfortunately I'm old. Can you please help me out by linking articles that support your statements, so I can read them and help you change my mind about him? Thank you.

Hell yes, thank you. I'll edit my comment if I read anything notable that I would like to ask you.

Edit #1:

when DOMA came up for a vote in the U.S. Senate on Sept. 10, 1996, Biden in his capacity representing Delaware in the U.S. Senate bowed to public sentiment at the time, voting in favor of the anti-gay law.

Is the article implying that Biden is only voting in favor to ban gay marriage because he is succumbing to peer pressure?

I've learned the hard way from Reddit that these kinds of requests will only result in my wasted time and it's not my responsibility to educate you; use Google

But the truth matters. Biden’s views on same-sex marriage have never been cutting-edge. When majorities opposed it, so did he. Once support for same-sex marriage became the mainstream Democratic position, Biden adopted it.

Okay I see, so he's a two-faced politician who doesn't understand the full picture. It's all coming together now why certain groups within the Left don't like him.

So you have me on your side now. What options do we have in the next election cycle?

[-] eldavi@lemmy.world 1 points 1 year ago

none since too many people support him completely out of ignorance of what he's done and said; like you did.

it's mind blowing that there are literally videos of him doing shitty things that a 30 second google search will show you, but people will still refused to believe it; we're no better than maga-ites

Not true because this conversation between you and I have been sane, respectful, and you changed my mind with facts. They aren't capable of this feat and will stagnate.

They aren’t capable of this feat and will stagnate.

my maga father changed his mind when presented with facts; also my exchanges with others; and all the downvotes in this same thread are reaffirming my suspicion that liberals and maga are the same.

This one won't load for me because I have my firewall block the entire Facebook domain. Can you provide a summary?
