Frankly nobody is celebrating, he's dead, deal with it.

Gloating?

"Gloating" is an English word of similar meaning, where "gloat" means "to observe or think about something with triumphant and often malicious satisfaction, gratification, or delight" (e.g., to gloat over an enemy's misfortune)".

Deaths of evil people get celebrated all the time.

Hitler, Saddam, Bin Laden, this a-hole, and eventually the orange guy.

What about the people in Munchkinland who worked for the witch? Don't you have any respect for the henchmen's feelings?

Psychological Projecting

Psychological projection is a defense mechanism in which the ego defends itself against unconscious impulses or qualities by denying their existence in themselves and attributing them to others.

Are any of the right wing posters going to comment on that old bastard's death, other than accusing the rest of us of gloating?

Let's see... Biden served as VP for America's first black President, then chose a black woman as his VP upon getting the Democratic nomination. He chose to run for the White House after Trump called Nazis at Charlottesville good people. He made Juneteenth a national holiday. So, how is he racist, again?


I think he may be referring to how he wanted to help minority businesses but excluded whites.

Oh that is racist alright. :roll:


Its a MAGA trick from the playbook on "Whatabout", "whatif" etc...

The Left never wants to account for its own wrongdoing so always scream: "WHATABOUTISM"! !!

Well he picked Kamala only on the basis of her race and gender.
He said you can't go into a 7/11 without a slight Indian accent
Back in 77 he said forced busing would turn schools into racial jungles
He had some great things to say about Robert KKK Byrd at his funeral. (Democrat senator and Klan leader)
Biden referred to Obama as the first mainstream clean, articulate black guy in DC
Biden has racist diarrhea of the mouth by anyones standards.


No, Biden's an old guy who isn't particularly politically correct.
Sure, he said stupid things back in 1977 - - but that was back in 1977! People can change and evolve, and I believe he did.
Yes, he said good things about Robert Byrd - - a man who had spent the rest of his life apologizing for his racist past.
I don't care about the things he had once said, but what he does and says now.

Have you seen Biden lately?
He recently said that "Poor kids are just as bright as white kids" Same old joe.


Again, he isn't politically correct. That hardly constitutes racism, as with the real grandpa of the far right, who had financed such deplorable actions as the Unite The Right Rally.
Do you have any criticism for the dead old racist bastard who the OP is about?

Never heard of him.

The modern American far-right can never honestly defend what it supports so it resorts to dishonest tricks like whataboutism. When you can't debate the issue you resort to distractions.

If you've read the article, you just have. Gleaning from the article what a waste of working human organs he was, I think it's fair you can make a judgement.

I think you will find the victims of white racism are incredibly forgiving for all the horrors inflicted on them, So you are preaching to the converted.

The elimination of ignorance is what everyone wants, One less racist is a start.
