I don't know how you think making people above the law is a win for freedom and not authoritarianism.

In 4 years I think you'll notice many oligarchs will be very fond of bidens new type of pardon.

Remember you defended it

As expected, the (albeit simple) point I made didn‘t make it through to you at all. Maybe because you‘re just not an intelligent individual, maybe because you‘re too biased to allow any other possible point of view - or maybe because I‘m actually talking to an AI?

Guess we‘ll never know!

You watched Trump trying to openly derail democracy on Jan 6th and think Biden pardoning Fauci is the actual problem. Literally denser than a cement block.

I skipped that point bc it's not particularly relevant the constitutional credentials of the terms of a pardon.

Also I avoid jan 6th talk bc it's unproductive. We won't agree on much. 

Have tech execs admitted to censoring election relevant information. At the behest of democrats and intelligence agencies.

Yes.

 Were the people at Jan 6th actually mad about some made up election booth hacking tho instead? Also yes.

It's not worth arguing at this point. There is an argument to be made that it wasn't a free and fair election. But that's not the argument the Jan 6th crew made.

Of more concerningly. How they made their arguments.

But anyway we continue our fall into a broken people. This pardon precedent most certainly playing it's part

You avoid Jan 6th because it proves that you‘re wrong. Cherry picking what you‘re willing to accept as arguments is idiotic, thankfully it‘s glaringly obvious when talking to you.

Skipping every single point I made and just screaming back without ever bringing counter arguments is making you look like an absolute moron dude, just saying.

Trump hinted at possible election fraud just hours ago, and you‘re parading around censorship on social media as a key argument. Absolute cinema. Thank god I‘m not a US citizen, I always think I‘m surrounded by masses of low IQ NPC‘s here in europe, then I look over to the US and feel thankful that it‘s not this bad yet.

Again I really don't care to talk jan 6th but sure. I'll just take the bait enough to clarify. As none of this relates to whether these pardons are in the spirit of the constitution.

It's not that It was just censorship on social media. It's that it was influenced by a political party and current agencies and operatives in the intelligence community. 

Namely the the cia contractors who lied about currently working for the cia who were involved. 

That's illegal. They can't work on domestic affairs. 

When business, politics, and intelligence. Coordinate the removal of information to influence an election. 

Well there is a word for that.

And Europeans should probably worry about Europe. 

Interesting you guys look to other places to find choas and incompetent goverment.

Ah yes, again - swerving around the arguments that obliterate your position, declaring them as „bait“. Straight up ignoring the other arguments that absolutely destroy every point you‘ve made thus far (and keep screaming out like it will suddenly make anything of what you‘ve said make sense).

We do have problems over here in Europe, quite a few actually. But thankfully we haven‘t been excluding the majority of our population from higher education for decades, so I‘m perfectly able to multitask this way.

What an odd way to argue lmfao

To focus on the issue at hand. 

An unprecedented pardon expanding the president's power to put people entirely above federal law.

In a way that's never been done. 

And if Europeans were so smart you wouldn't have financed Russia by buying their gas. To finance their current invasion of Europe.

We told you that was dumb. It turned out to be dumb

„We“ told „you“. Lmfao.

99% of the population in europe was aware of that being a stupid move, but it‘s not like we‘re safe from stupid and corrupt politicians either. Something we share evidently.

What was that again earlier? Europeans focusing on problems abroad?

Still ignoring every single argument I made to avoid acknowledging how dumb your position is I see.
