I’m not opposed to this perspective but Joe fuckin Biden is the guy who wrote the '94 crime bill. He argued in the Senate to put motherfuckers in prison for renting warehouses to ravers. This man’s son does more drugs than most of the people in prison from his bill, and yet he’s not in prison. It’s absolutely ripe political fodder for attacking him, there’s no reasonable argument for his kid not being affected by his awful policies other than he knows they’re awful and he doesn’t want his son affected by them. He should be attacked for this shit, it should be a normal way to criticize him. If his kid shouldn’t be in prison for the obvious, well documented crimes he does, why should anybody elses?

Yea, but that was just meant to put black people and extremely poor white people who hang out with black people in prison, not rich failsons of billionaires and politicians.
Beautifully put. It’s not like Hunter Biden being in jail is going to make me feel good either. Let other people’s sons and daughters out of jail for shit no one cares about. If you would then decide to get help for addicts then you’d have my non-American vote so fucking fast
Edit: he’d face jail time for tax memes, not for the stuff normies go to jail for. Hehexd moment
They dont have to be consistent. They can use it because its the sorta thing liberals are supposed to care about. Everyone knows the republicans are assholes. The dems try to make everyone think they’re the good guys.
Is it really confusing? They will use any angle to attack their opponents, I don’t think it’s anything new. There’s nothing internally consistent about the Democrats or the Republicans, I can’t see why they would need consistency on this one subject.
I mean yeah I’m not saying we shouldn’t go after Hunter for the tax evasion or whatever (not the drug crimes, nobody should be in jail for doing drugs). But speaking of Papa Biden, I just don’t think it’s that big of a deal compared to the other stuff he’s done (the aforementioned crime bill, funding a genocide, opening up more oil drilling despite staring down the barrel of an existential climate crisis, etc). Conservatives won’t criticize him on those things because they agree with most of them, so they bang the Hunter Biden drum because it’s about the only thing they have. They deserve to be mocked for spending absurd amounts of time and taxpayer money on something that barely fucking matters rather than the actual important issues affecting the country.

yes, that’s the contradiction here
Sorry, Joe Biden, your son is not above the law and will be tried in court as if he were any other Black man and will inevitably be found guilty.

It’s definitely ripe fodder for attacking him from the left, but right wingers love the carceral system so it’s a little confusing coming from them

Until Joe moves to decriminalize whatever Hunter’s charged with, I don’t give a shit. Lock his ass up, this is the nation Joe Biden built.
