Honestly a comforting read as someone who isn’t a huge Biden fan. Things are improving! As a person in their early 20’s it’s felt like the world fell apart right as I was entering the work force, nothing has been affordable and crime has been a major worry. Seeing that crime is down and we’re likely going to avoid a worse recession is like having a weight off my shoulders.
I’m also not a huge Biden fan. He’s been in the pocket of the movie and recording industry for most of his political career, and as Vice President helped write treaties that further empower them around the world. I was expecting more of a capitalist liberal and less of a progressive. I wonder if Harris isn’t the mitigating factor here, but in the end he’s still done far better as President than I expected.
Man I hope us Europeans are just going through a phase right now. Here in Germany the population didn’t take green politics well and global disruptions were blamed on the current government so the far right got an uptick in popularity. Other EU-countries also have the far right on the footstep of ruling and some already fell.
I’ll admit I don’t know much about European politics, but from a foreign view it’s scary. I’ve always seen the far right in American politics it’s more or less the status quo, but seeing the far right rise in modern Europe is shocking to me. Most of this is informed by what I’ve seen in the news about what’s been going on in Italy though.
I’d say that Italy is still an outlier and for example in Germany we’re still far far away from a situation like that. There are some early warning signs though and we better collectively get all our shit together.

Keep it up Biden administration.

Propaganda works on the ignorant. Do the world a favor and stop voting.
Let’s just agree to both stay home voting day instead wasting both of our time just to cancel eachother out.
