They shoulda run Walz for prez
apparently lots of people didn't even realize biden dropped out until they saw the ballot. what the us needs is basic and free education.
Jesus Christ, seriously? The amount of political ads we were bombarded with for 6 months leading up to November, and people didn't realize Biden wasn't running?
apparently google searches for "did biden drop out" surged on election day.

I was at a coffee place drive-through a couple of months ago and they always leave the window open there, so I heard them chatting inside and one of them was not even aware Biden was president. She literally said, "I thought Trump was the president."
there's a certain kind of privilege in that. like, life must be so good for people to not even bother knowing who's president.
Did you ever read 1984? The proles don't care because their lives have continued on as normal. It is definitely its own kind of privilege, but you're also talking about someone who is making a tiny income working at a coffee shop. She's poor and uneducated, which will continue to be to her benefit. I didn't see her, but she's probably white too since this is Indiana.
She's still a woman though.
