Tropical Soulvanglical got around to seeing the interview between Joe Biden and Lawrence O'Donnell, and his takeaways go beyond the fatalists' emphasis on Biden's concerns about big tech. Among other things, one thing TSV heard Biden say was Biden saying he regretted being heavier on the policy and lighter on the politics. But the implication TSV hears in that is that at age 82, Biden may be feeling like life's too short to be as concerned about earthly politics as about doing those things we're all supposed to be doing for one another, hence the policies bit. Sure, maybe if there was a little more emphasis on the politics for Biden, you won't have centrist Donkeys betraying their own democratic values to push Biden out of the race. Very honestly, TSV in regarding the interview will not forget July24 or the importance of there being a political price for the centrist Donkeys to place cynicism over faith. Biden, on the other hand, TSV sees as about faith and principle, and this gets to TSV's other takeaway. He believes that all those who -still- "hate" Biden just because they hate Biden, not the hardcore trumpists who will hate Biden anyway, but the young anarchists who seem to believe there's nothing to believe in should tune in without pride or prejudice to the interview, because TSV thinks they may understand why Biden had to do what he did, and maybe get more mature appreciation. Values such as faith and principle as per the two men TSV saw on his open-source lounge laptop screen he thinks are more the exception to the rule in terms of how many people TSV sees -really- holding and following in 2025. TSV is even more concerned about that than a tech oligarchy or the centrist Donkeys not being held accountable, including also -trump- being held accountable, because it's lack of faith and principle he sees as leading to things such as oligarchy and cynicism and personal corruption. Unfortunately TSV isn't sure that it's not too late for Gens Y and Z to really understand what that means, so he's looking to Gen Alpha, and if necessary, Gens Beta and Gamma, to really exemplify those values as we march forward.
