There are a lot of fake progressives now, mainly white, who are whining that Biden has not changed anything. Could things be better? Yes. But to do false equivalence with Trump level pure evil is, to me, a sign that someone is being an intentional troll.
@kelena Not changed anything, Joe Biden only got Sworn in on Wednesday, is this also an indication of our desire to have instant results or am I missing something.
@zleap I've encountered so-called progressives who are ideologically rigid. If they don't get exactly what they want, instantly, then politician A is "the same as" politician B. These ideological zealots exist on both the far right and far left sides of the political spectrum.
Most of the ones I know are also Bernie Sanders supporters and are already claiming if Sanders were president that items X, Y, and Z would already be taken care of.
It's a childish, impatient, spoiled brat sort of behavior and I also most often see it from white progressives. People of color, on the other hand, realize that while we may deserve things right now, the political reality is that it often takes time to effect change, and a step in the right direction is better than no step at all.
For example, these same faux progressives are whining that Biden won't support Medicare For All. But he does support a Medicare Buy-In option, and that's better than where we were, so why not back it as an interim step?
@kelena Good point However this could also link with, websites tellingme how long it takes to read somethingor the tendancy to use TL:DR whenit comes to instructions.
So not just one or two groups a lot of people just seem to expect immediate results of knowledge.
I am learning LaTeX it is taking years, but as I do new projects I learn more. Also studied OU courses lots of reading, note taking involved and the need to write, reference etc,
I do find I there are two groups of people though those who reply to things quickly those who don't and within the former a group that actually read and comprehend and anoher group that fail that.
Could be a deeper social problem. starting to manifest, not sure.
