Former President Joe Biden was diagnosed with an “aggressive form” of prostate cancer, according to a statement from his personal office Sunday, and it has spread to his bones.

“Last week, President Joe Biden was seen for a new finding of a prostate nodule after experiencing increasing urinary symptoms. On Friday, he was diagnosed with prostate cancer, characterized by a Gleason score of 9 (Grade Group 5) with metastasis to the bone,” the statement said.

    I wish I had well-wishes to give. But Biden losing the republic because of his own hubris makes it difficult to care what trials and suffering lay in his future.

            Bruh, you spend all your time carrying water for literal fucking fascists, apologizing for them, and licking their boots. You just made a comment about how it’s better now that there’s a Republican in the White House.

            Accelerationists like you are fascists, no matter how much you swear up and down that you totally vote Dem while peddling every right-wing talking point you can get your hands on.

              You just made a comment about how it’s better now that there’s a Republican in the White House.

              I made a comment about how the press is willing to admit that netanyahu is committing genocide in Gaza now that a republican is in the white house. I wouldn’t call that better.

              Accelerationists like you

              Guess again. I want democrats to be better. You want everyone to be happy that they’re getting worse.

                “It’s amazing what having a republican in the white house will do”

                Guess again. I want democrats to be better. You want everyone to be happy that they’re getting worse.

                Tell me more about how Dems in 2024 were worse than they were in 2000, 2004, 2008, 2012, 2016, and 2020. Please. Go ahead. Say something that isn’t a regurgitation of alt-right talking points fed to gullible performative leftists like you who don’t give a single solitary fuck about the lives of marginalized groups.

                That is, of course, assuming you are genuine in this, and just don’t give a fuck that you’re helping fascists if it helps you feel good, rather than being a believer in fascist ideology yourself.

                  I invite everyone reading this to also read the comment that was in reply to.

                  Here, I’ll paste it for you:

                  Spreading awareness is key. The overton window is shifting massively. Even MSM is starting to cover the genocide without prefacing every sentence with October 7.

                  I was saying that the press is admitting that it’s a genocide now that the president is a republican. Of course you know this, but you’re dishonest.

                  After all, you’re calling me a fascist for being to your left on genocide. And cancer, evidently.

                    I literally called you out as an accelerationist. Or have you forgotten what that word means already? Perhaps your memory is going the route of Trump’s.

                    After all, you’re calling me a fascist for being to your left on genocide. And cancer, evidently.

                    You supported the election of Trump. You are far to the right of me on the ongoing Israeli genocide, not to mention the ongoing Ukrainian genocide.

                    Very telling that you can’t answer how the Dems were “getting worse”, though, typical of the quality of shit you shovel.

                    Tell me more about how Dems in 2024 were worse than they were in 2000, 2004, 2008, 2012, 2016, and 2020. Please. Go ahead.

        Man, I’m usually one of the people on Lemmy who is, at least, defending that the Dems are not the core problem. I’m very vocal that the failure of the 2024 election was fundamentally a failure of the American people, wherein 1/3 of the country voted for fascism and 1/3 said they didn’t fucking care.

        But we lost by a small margin, and Biden choosing to stay in until it was clear that he could not command the confidence of the party - which was past the point when a primary could have been reasonably held - contributed no small amount to fucking us.
