That is the ultimate metric of success for US leaders

I watched most of it, I was honestly worried I was about to see a stroke live. Obviously Trump is a shitbag but I agreed with him in several instances versus what Joe said. Of the few coherent-ish responses Biden literally said our only "sacred duty" is to arm our troops and give them a good retirement. This is what I'm supposed to vote for??
I was watching with a friend who is pretty left but has a US flag hanging in his house and dank brandon meme coffee cups, before the debate he had an attitude like "oh man Trump is about to get smoked". Ten minutes in he's like "what the fuck is happening" and couldn't finish it, immediately afterwards he's talking about other candidates that they should put forward. It's going to be embarrassing to support Biden at this point even among the libs.
What seems to be happening for millenials I know is the addiction to money and treats. I hear a variation of "I hate my job, capitalism is terrible obviously but I've never made this much money before." They support radicalism and 'burning down the system' in the abstract but fear or attachment keeps them from actively resisting the structure.
But like you said I know plenty that foregoe those pleasures or use their job to attack the system of all ages, that gives me some optimism. Not everyone needs to take serious action, I don't really blame any individual for being scared or unsure.

How do they change the price on them? Can it be a cyberpunk era already where we hack them with a burner phone or something?
I agree "DON'T COME AT ME WITH NO PETITION, BRING ME AMMUNITION"
Wasn't there a court ruling that forcing someone to unlock their phone was unconstitutional? The fourth amendment seems to indicate a warrent at least is required to search someone's papers, in the modern era that should apply to phones, obviously the constitution is meaningless if they want to do whatever but still.
Edit: in Riley v. California (2014) the Supreme Court unanimously decided that warrentless search of a cellphone during an arrest was unconstitutional.
I suppose it's good to report on what leaders say, but this headline is sort of like saying "Top Genocider is Opposed to Pausing Genocide"
An antisocial ghoul that would report a ziploc of chips stolen would probably see that kindness as some kind of aggressive gesture, anyone who would do such a thing is living in a different social reality.
What fucking inhuman people would care about such a thing. Few things make me feel like burning it all down than this sort of behavior, like when stores throw out day-old bread and lock the dumpster, fire people for taking home wasted food, it's despicable. It's a reflection of their hatred for people and society.
Of a few Biden quotes that stuck out, one of his responses was "You're the sucker, you're the loser!(Horrified/disoriented expression)"
