“But look! The guy who refused to stop funding a genocide(‘s admin) made a half-assed effort to curb air pollution while ignoring car exhaust and microplastics!”

“That guy did unrelated bad things on top of the good things he did, so you’re not allowed to be upset about those good things being undone or any of the other bad shit this new guys doing!!” Like no biden didn’t do everything right. He didn’t do many things right. I don’t even like the guy. But at least the effort was made to start doing something. Undoing it is just an objectively bad thing

Dawg what effort the man was demented for half his term. His CABINET ran his term. It could have done much, MUCH more. The admin didn’t fight for any of its campaign promises save student loans which they didn’t fight back on when it was called into legal question. Trump is genuinely fulfilling a lot of his campaign promises (to play with fascism), whereas Biden didn’t even TRY following a huge election. If effort makes the man, trump wins. That’s what utterly infuriates me about Biden.

Like we can shit on trump for his policy or his character all day but the fact of the matter is he is DOING SHIT. Biden didn’t. It’s hard for me to praise the man who set us up for this mess in the first place. And let’s not forget Super Tuesday, that was a legitimate coup.

We are literally talking about the EPA. How he enacted limits to help start reducing air pollution. That is an objectively good thing. Trump is undoing that. That is an objectively bad thing. Like I said, I don’t like the guy. But things were actually starting to move towards better. It’s just not something that can happen overnight. All I was saying is that your original point doesn’t make any sense. Yes he did some things poorly. This thing he did somewhat well. Why is that so hard to accept

“To help start” describes like half of his admin’s policies dude. Not overnight, 4 years and an election that should have been a blue landslide if Biden didn’t make HIS OWN DECISION to stay in the race (after saying he would be a one-term president). Dude single-handedly gave trump the whitehouse w that move. The Biden admin was 1 step forward, 2 demented falls back. He did most things poorly.

I literally agree with you. I don’t like him, I do t think he was a good president, and he totally fucked us. What I’m saying is that we’re talking about something he actually did that was objectively good, and you’re coming in with all this whataboutism or whatever. Like can you not just say yes, that was a good thing he did, and yes, it’s bad that trump is getting rid of it

This post seems to be trying to counter broader criticism of Biden and his policies by citing one *microscopic* victory that trump is undoing. It’s disingenuous.

Yes, that was a good thing “he” did. “Biden never did anything good” is a hyperbolic statement, but the sentiment stands.

This post is countering the argument of “Biden never did anything good” with an example of something good he did. That is a perfectly genuine point to make. All this post is trying to do is speak to the people who blame anything and everything that goes wrong on Biden, and credit everything good to trump, when in most cases the reverse has been true, such as this one. It’s pointing out that Biden did a GOOD thing and trump went out of his way to undo it, countering that line of thinking

The idea that either of these men did any discernible good for this country is not a sane one, my friend. Petty arguments over invisible victories aren’t productive. Trump did no tax on tips! Biden didn’t do anything for the service industry!! Take that demorats!!! See how dumb it sounds?

Neither of them have done much of any good. I’m personally of the belief that Biden did more good, even if that good was doing nothing at all. All that this post is asserting is that there are things that he did do good. That’s it.

Please list them, aside from this nothing burger, and the failed student loan initiative (that he could have fought harder for)
