While rebutting another post here on Lemmy, I ran into this. This says exactly what I want to say.

I am not a friend of Biden’s Administration. I think they drug their feet over a variety of things ranging from holding Trump and his goons accountable for January 6th through rulemaking on issues like OTC Birth Control and abortion rights, and yes, I think he’s too quick to please big business. But then I remember what the alternative is, and … well, disappointed in Biden or not, I’m voting for him. Because my wife is a Black bisexual goth woman, four strikes under Team Pepe’s tent. And I have my own strikes for marrying her as a White dude, and respecting her right to not have kids since she doesn’t want them is another strike against me. And I care about my Non-Christian, Gay, Transgender, and Minority friends, and will never willingly subject them to Team Pepe.

    Making a little effort rather than absolutely no effort doesn’t make it a Good effort. Terrible analysis. Additionally the whole mst oil production in US history sort of really undermines everything.

      The climate bill was so comprehensive that it forced Europe to pass a similar bill while grumbling. And preliminary analysis of the bill suggested it would remove 6.5 kg of emissions for every 1 kg it enabled. That’s a big deal.
