The first and only good babylonbee article
I hate Babylon Bee, but a broken clock & all that.
Either this situation isn’t as bad as they said it would be during the campaign (which is what Babylon Bee is implying) or it IS as bad as they said it is, and they’re letting it happen anyways.
Either way, they’re spineless fucking liars.
So… they are criticizing her for not trying to overthrow democracy? Like trying to pull a coup would have been the only rational, non-hypocritical response here? What a worrying attitude
Only if you don’t believe Donald Trump’s own words.

Yes. What kind of party hands over power to people they know is fascist?
A liberal one, yes. Which is the problem, and why liberalism eventually gives way to fascism when a capitalist state is in decline.
Why is that a worrying attitude?
They’re criticizing her for saying “he’s facist hitler” through the campaign as the sole message, and then when they lose, shrugging and treating it like any other loss. “Oh well, better luck next time!”
Babylon Bee’s point is that the rhetoric doesn’t match the actions. If he was Hitler, then why are you handing him the reigns like this is just any other election? Their implication is that the campaign dramatized his impact and demonized him. They’re right about the criticism but wrong about the reason.
He DOES represent the evils they’ve been espousing, and they are laying down and doing fuck all about it except paving him a clear path. Babylon Bee has managed to accidentally write their most non-partisan headline ever by accident, and a scathing indictment of spineless liberalism.
Why is that a worrying attitude?
Because it seems to be pointed in the direction of a civil war and an end to the US republic
He DOES represent the evils they’ve been espousing, and they are laying down and doing fuck all about it except paving him a clear path.
What do you think should be done instead?
Be as petty as he was and do everything in their power to sabotage what they can and leave him a mess?
I wish this was the right community to post this. Unfortunately, it more properly belongs in nottheonion
That joke title is going to age like the Weimar Republic xD
First and only and it looks like Babylon staff didn’t even come up with the idea - at the bottom it suggests this was a reader submission.
Actually that was a JD Vance quote. Harris kept it more classy.
Either way, he’s more of a Mussolini type. Less vision, more opportunism.
Let’s hope he remains a Mussolini type to his dying day.
Specifically on that one day. I hope he is bedridden until then
Fascism through ✨ V I B E S ✨
Biden is the one responsible for transferring power. Even right wing satire is full of ignorance. Not that there was ever any doubt.
She literally said this though.
“I spoke with President-elect Trump and congratulated him on his victory. I also told him that we will help him and his team with their transition and that we will engage in a peaceful transfer of power.”
It was her concession speech though.
Someone already wrote that article: Biden vows ‘peaceful and orderly transition;’ says election system ‘fair’ and ‘transparent’.
