Remind me: what was that thing that the Biden admin spent the a lot of time doing/attempting to do regarding student debt? And was it or was it not the exact thing OP’s meme claims the dems aren’t doing?

Or shall we have a look at the healthcare plan that ended up becoming Obamacare after getting nerfed a thousand times by a Republican Congress? Was that not doing something about medical bills as OP’s meme claims?

To ignore all of the stuff dems have been doing and then talk about “realistic” is… Well. It’s something.

So for me it comes down to how long they stick to that narrative before admitting that maybe we weren’t exaggerating.

They usually never do. Just at some point they start declaring they always thought so, too.

Yeah you just can’t be in a server room anymore without some dude trying to sell you on Office365 and Cortana, sigh.

It’s less uneducated thinking and more “here’s a thing I read online that I can parrot to show that I am more rational than others”.

That statistic could be entirely unfounded and people would still be repeating it because it serves their purposes. Internet nerds love gotchas.

That aside, fully agreed regarding the level of control. It’s a little like saying “people have - and therefore you have - an x% chance of getting lung cancer” while completing ignoring that a huge portion of that is a direct result of only some people’s behaviour, namely smoking.

The people driving defensively, sober and attentively are not likely to be the ones folding themselves around a roadside tree.

Not really. But you know, gotta find ways to feel smarter than other people so here we go.

People not realising this is what’s so baffling.

Narrator: The left did not, in fact, get everyone’s basic needs met because it hasn’t been in power for nearly half a century. And incidentally, every time it was represented in government there were major strides in “getting everyone’s needs met”.

Don’t believe me? Do a Google search for “most liberal/leftist US presidents”, click any of these listicles and try to find the most recent leftist president. Notice how there isn’t a single one more recent than 1969?

For most of you reading this, the last actual leftist government predates your parents’ birth.
