Hopefully you can take a second, if not a couple hours, to reflect on what you can learn about the experience. A lot of other people didn’t make the same mistake, for lack of a better word, and were communicating their ideas the whole time.
For example, I try to pay attention to which pundits or networks are wrong and then never fully trust them again, or at least treat them with a high amount of skepticism. In contrast, people that are right on big, important issues I try to pay more attention to
Edit: I think I should’ve said we, as I’m absolutely doing this myself
I personally didn’t think it was a great idea to attack him a la Bernie v Hilary, since we have to ultimately vote for him, which is where I think most of his defense comes from, but I also didn’t agree with denying reality and pretending we were going to win by just ignoring reality harder than the other side.
I mainly want to try and understand why I was hesitant at all and not fully onboard with the brave people that convinced enough people in power to force him to step down. It at least makes me wonder what else I’m believing that isn’t true

Jon Stewart comes to mind
Exactly! I always remember that study on people’s understanding of current events based on the media they consume.
People that didn’t watch any news were more informed than people that watched fox/nbc on current events or international issues , whereas people that watched the daily show or npr were more informed. That and seeing people ridicule Michael Moore over and over despite him always being right (afaik) have been big eye-openers in terms of who to believe. It’s wild they keep putting people on TV that are regularly wrong.
Ok… had to go find it: What you know depends on what you watch. It’s from 2012 but still seems legit.
Dude, I already said I made a mistake. No need to take the chance to act like a fucking smug cunt.
My bad, I wasn’t trying to offend you! lol That was sincere
Admitting you made a mistake doesn’t have to be the last step. It can be the first! Asking questions can be step 2. Experimenting can be step 3. Idk…
Anyway, it was just a suggestion. You absolutely do not have to reflect on anything if you don’t feel comfortable or it’s too stressful or whatever
You’re acting like you had superior information about the system.
Biden had every detail lined up at the time these conversations were rolling.
He was the clear and away presumptive nominee.
If Biden was still in right now you’d be the one “reflecting” based on you’re advice, and that makes no sense to tell someone about something they can’t control.
Listen. You clearly have the need to prove yourself. But you have to understand, I am not your dad. Call him and tell what a pretty little princess you have been. Just don’t bother me. You sound so sad it spoils my mood.
