Joe Biden is now the Nickelback /Big Bang Theory of Presidents.

There’s nothing really bad about him, nothing really great, but they’ve been told to hate on him, so that’s what they’ll do.

Here in Czechia, we had socialism a few decades ago. Pretty much everyone old enough to remember it hates it.

Socialism is not a ‘one thing’ . It’s a concept as a whole. You can have good or bad socialism and everything in between.

The world is far more nuanced than that.
