I'm a leftist, not a liberal. I'm not a "fan" for any of these capitalists. I just want to minimize damage, and that can't happen with Biden. I hope that clears up any confusion because I'm already getting a lot of comments like "Woo, you're right! That's why we should elect Buttigieg instead" when he's almost precisely as conservative too and misses the point of the video. I'm not "endorsing" anyone because I'm basically nobody, but woof. No.
Americans don't even understand political spectrums and terminology. Democrats like Biden and Mayor Pete are Third way new Democrats which means they are socially liberal and economically conservative. (Btw Biden has a questionable social record alone so let's remember that). While the "far left" candidates like Warren and Sanders are social Democrats which in a global spectrum is pretty center left. The fact that Warren and Sanders are viewed as out of the mainstream is ridiculous. But I'm glad we are at least talking about the damage of supply side economics and expanding the social safety net. But unfortunately this conversation so moving slowly that I'm afraid the sudden change this country needs won't come fast enough
I knew Biden was bad, but the last few weeks/months have revealed a much worse person than I thought. It's sad that the US have had a choice between centre right and full blown right wing such is the history of the s word.
@Ralphtherap I mean, better than reelection. As much as we want someone who is literally not a republican in a democratic disguise, that is *never* going to happen. I doubt that we'd even be able to get a *female president* for a while, much less an actual leftist.
Knowing how close the race was (in battleground states ofc, total population wise it was a total blowout) I genuinely think that any other nominee would've lost. If a fucking conservative dressed as a democrat can barely win, anyone else would've been crushed. It's sad to say given what that implies, but the presidential race was far narrower than it had any right to be.
To quote Samuel Johnson "Sir there is no settling the point of precedency between a louse and a flea" . I don't know or understand how USA is ever going to get over its knee jerk reaction to calling anything which the rest of the world thinks of as centrist "socialist" or "communism".
Yeah, McCarthy's legacy lives on. I think Bernie is helping push the window to the left and normalize the word 'socialist' by claiming to be a democratic socialist.
I’m desperate to get Trump out but I really don’t want Biden. I want to move forward not be stagnant. #FeeltheBern2020 If they’d have picked Bernie in 2016 we wouldn’t be in this mess.
@@NyJoanzy He is probably commenting his past legislation like his participation in the crime bill, his votes for war, his votes and sponsered legislation for banking, credit cards, debt collectors.
Seeing videos like this just shows me again why I‘m so glad that we have a multi party system in germany, so that not all politicans are not cramed in two big partys
Joe Bidden and I come from the same hometown. Knowing Scranton as well as I do, the fact he's a politician who comes from that town alone does not give me much hope for him.
"I almost threw up my own skeleton." Now *that* is such a great hyperbolic way to describe how disgusting Trump is. I'm definitely going to start using that from now on. Thank you for coming up with such an excellent vivid image lol.
Never gonna happen. I saw that video, and it had some information for people unfamiliar with Biden beyond his general creepiness, but the premise, I think, was just a joke.
8:16 Holy shit! I was super surprised to see my family's hometown featured here, but very very glad. Jonesville, and all of it's many problems feel so forgotten. Most of my family members attended Block High. It goes all the way down to my young cousins who are currently attending. It's rundown, the curriculum is poor. It's ridiculous. Thank you for even featuring footage to shine a little light on such a tiny town!
Message from nine months in the future: maybe we could have done better than Biden, but we didn't. He was the frontrunner when this was released, and there he stayed: he had no enthusiasm behind him, but "no enthusiasm" was sufficient. Whatever magic Bernie is supposed to have had didn't translate into primary votes. It's 2016 again, only worse.
2021 here, we chose not to do better. The kids are no longer in camps though! Well... I mean they are, but now we call then "migrant facilities." It seems to have appeased the white liberals. Also, in a historical turn, Biden selected a sort of black but not too black woman who is also a cop with a ridiculously high rate of prison sentences for African Americans to be his VP! This, too, has appeased the white liberals.
As a recovering drug addict who has two years clean, and who has friends currently sitting in prison for drug charges, I can't finish this video right now. I made it to about 14:41 and it's just too much for me to handle right now because I think about people I love wasting their lives away in a prison cell when what they really need is HELP. The War on Drugs is cruel and it doesn't work. Thank you for making this video. I'm going to come back and finish it once I calm down. I didn't realize this about Biden though, and it really is changing my perspective
One thing about the Midwest - or "flyover country" in general - Milwaukee was effectively run by the Socialist Party from 1910-1960 with (as we all know from Wayne's World) three socialist mayors. Oklahoma had one of the most active socialist parties in the 1910s before the Red Scare started. After WW1, Alabama's Communist Party (CPUSA) had a very active base with poor black folks. The CPUSA was also active with farmers in Montana. When you have no left alternative or the left is violently suppressed (see: spartacist uprising in post WW1 Germany), people won't turn to the center.
man, i wish i had seen this video a year ago and sent it to my mother before she voted for him. you perfectly summed up every problem (and more) that i have with him but couldn't find/remember the words to say to her
Here I am, in August of 2020, watching this video. It's Biden vs Trump, and while things don't appear to be looking well for Trump, that doesn't really mean anything as we've seen. I am filled with so much disappointment for the US, and feel powerless to affect any real or significant change.
It's insane how close Trump pulled ahead at the end. Makes me shiver to think what would've happened if we had a candidate who was even slightly less conservative.
I hadn't seen this video until now, post- Labor Day. It's weird how things worked out and B. got the nomination, given that this info was known. Weird that Jim Clyburn endorsed him and it apparently made the difference. Weird that Kamala criticized him over bussing and B. put her on the ticket. I guess their message to the voters, especially black voters is: Trump is worse. That is not a positive message for our country.
I'm a leftist, not a liberal. I'm not a "fan" for any of these capitalists. I just want to minimize damage, and that can't happen with Biden. I hope that clears up any confusion because I'm already getting a lot of comments like "Woo, you're right!

Amen
Well said. An endorsement later on would be nice. We're all nobodies, but you are a particularly articulate and well researched nobody.
UPDATE: We can do better than Biden, we're just not allowed to.
welp he’s president now lmao
@GOD lol
100% that media and DNC push for Biden was something else
Update: it's pretty much exactly what was expected.
I hate how this video predicated the worst timeline. Reality is a sad affair.
I love this reference. Lovely.
America can do better than Joe, but won't.
@Ralphtherap I mean, better than reelection. As much as we want someone who is literally not a republican in a democratic disguise, that is *never* going to happen. I doubt that we'd even be able to get a *female president* for a while, much less an actual leftist.
I miss Bernie :(
If only we knew. If only we knew.
"I don't think that a woman has the sole right to say what should happen to her body."
Wow, talk about saying the quiet part loud.
Shiny Sylveon Biden endorses rape and forced baby carrying. Good to know.
I'm dissapointed in myself that I turned a blind eye to things like this and I already knew a lot of them. Thanks for helping me open my eyes more
The year is 2020 and Joe Biden is the presumptive nominee. I HATE IT HERE
Aaron Pelavin Yes. Let me out!
I'm checking but they're piling up poop in front of all the exits
And now, he is the president elect. 🤦🏾♀️
Knowing how close the race was (in battleground states ofc, total population wise it was a total blowout) I genuinely think that any other nominee would've lost. If a fucking conservative dressed as a democrat can barely win, anyone else would've been crushed. It's sad to say given what that implies, but the presidential race was far narrower than it had any right to be.
The year is 2021 and Joe Biden's inauguration is in less of 12 days.
Seeing this and hearing Biden say "If you don't vote for me,you ain't black." Is fucking incredible.
Cute profile pic.
James Baldwin said, "To be Black in America is to be in a constant state of rage." I hope Americans can begin to see why...
Nice call on this year's politics as a whole.
Update: Turns out, we couldn't.
I guess in this day and age, this really is the lighter subject. I hope this video gets shared like crazy.
I just want to comment on all of this personality you've been putting into your videos recently. I love it.
Thank for pointing it out. I totally agree!!

I don't know or understand how USA is ever going to get over its knee jerk reaction to calling anything which the rest of the world thinks of as centrist "socialist" or "communism".

Sadly, it may persist until all the baby boomers are out of the picture.
Bernie!!! Although as a veteran I do love Tulsi Gabbard, Bernie Sanders is my number one.
We need every voice we can saying this.
Late 2020 here.
We didn’t do better. Sorry 2019 for your misplaced hope.
Spoiler alert:
Vice president Kamala Harris
LOL
Early 2022 here, turn back while you can things get worse…so much more worse
Rewatching this video hurts, man. It just hurts.
I’m desperate to get Trump out but I really don’t want Biden. I want to move forward not be stagnant. #FeeltheBern2020 If they’d have picked Bernie in 2016 we wouldn’t be in this mess.
That's why primaries exist. If I was american, I'd still vote Biden against Trump, but I sure as hell would not touch him in the primaries.
Would love a follow up to this, now that Biden is the Democratic nominee.
Follow-up: He's still unmitigated trash and America is doomed. (Casey Kasem voice:) Now on with the countdown.
Id like a follow up now that he's PRESIDENT
My guy, this comment could've been posted YESTERDAY! 😭 We're looking at another four years, and that's the best-case scenario.
And here we are.
I feel you
“I don’t want my kids to live in a jungle, a racial jungle!” - Joe “I’m better than Trump, so I’m immune from any kind of criticism whatsoever” Biden
When I look at old news footage of Joe Biden, I have to ask, how did Joe Biden get more hair as he got older?
MONEY
Watching this today is depressing. All this was known but here we are 🤦
Feels more relevant every day.
"We could do better than Joe Biden." Yep, we really could
We could have done better, but we didn't.
You should have Sanders, but you did Biden.
Thank you for all your hard work Leon.
Ahhhh...pre-pandemic videos. Gotta love em.
I am not a fan of Biden's policies.
@@NyJoanzy He is probably commenting his past legislation like his participation in the crime bill, his votes for war, his votes and sponsered legislation for banking, credit cards, debt collectors.
Seeing videos like this just shows me again why I‘m so glad that we have a multi party system in germany, so that not all politicans are not cramed in two big partys
We didn’t do better.
and from the looks of things looks like he's gonna be president smh
Rewatches this video in March 2020: oh no....
You know who decides who's electable?
THE ELECTORATE!!!
Yes but with a great big push from the corporate media.
came back to this after the super Tuesday results, and I plan to send it to everyone I know tbh
Joe Bidden and I come from the same hometown. Knowing Scranton as well as I do, the fact he's a politician who comes from that town alone does not give me much hope for him.
What’s in the water in Scranton?
Creepy Joe has got to go. Hey, hey, ho, ho Creepy Joe has got to go.
Didn't even have to mention all his gaffs too. The "Stand up, Chuck, let them see ya!" still makes me die a little inside.
"I almost threw up my own skeleton."
Now *that* is such a great hyperbolic way to describe how disgusting Trump is.
I'm definitely going to start using that from now on. Thank you for coming up with such an excellent vivid image lol.
"The debates should fix that" oh how I wish the world worked the way it should
Please do one about the mainstream media's anti-Bernie bias.
Fantastic video, this is why we need a viable third party and ranked choice voting
God, watching this video now is painful. Why couldn't people listen?
To quote a Showdy owned by a Cody, Biden should primary as a Republican
Never gonna happen. I saw that video, and it had some information for people unfamiliar with Biden beyond his general creepiness, but the premise, I think, was just a joke.
A year later and I can hear renegade cut face palming from here..
Fuck, this was nearly a year ago now. WHY DIDN'T ANYONE LISTEN
Update: we couldn’t

I would like to see this video get more views and I would suggest that more videos on this subject as well as Harris's history would be timely.
Just came back after hearing the news

Great Video! Too bad I'm no american. I would vote for the Bern!
What a great and current topic. Oh wait, this is five months old.
Are we in hell?
That moment when Jeb Bush was begging for Applause was the highlight of the 2015 election.
apparently, we can't
Comparing the Democratic debates to the G1 climax is absolute gold.
THE D1 Climax!
Watching this after election Is... Interesting.
Apprently we can't do better.
Well, apparently we can't do better in 2020. :(
This is so sad now
man, i wish i had seen this video a year ago and sent it to my mother before she voted for him. you perfectly summed up every problem (and more) that i have with him but couldn't find/remember the words to say to her
"I ALMOST THREW UP MY OWN SKELETON" was Hilarious in this Grim Reality.
Can I just say that Obama wasn't great either? So I don't get why Biden gets points for being Obama's vice president.
Bibis Product Placements because neolibs are useless and worship anyone in the DNC
It’s absolute bullshit that these well made political EDUCATION pieces got demonetized. I edited my Patreon donation to donate more, I hope it helps.
This video seems truer now more than ever.
I thought Andrew Yang or Bernie Sanders were a good choices
watching this 4 days before biden's inauguration is... not a fun experience
I appreciate that there was a Bernie ad before this video
"We can do better"
*And then we didn't*
Well. That turned out differently than any of us expected
Apparently, we can't.
Here I am, in August of 2020, watching this video. It's Biden vs Trump, and while things don't appear to be looking well for Trump, that doesn't really mean anything as we've seen. I am filled with so much disappointment for the US, and feel powerless to affect any real or significant change.

You sure do sound like you are enjoying yourself at the start.
3:35 and you nailed it nearly a year later.
Who's still watching this video after Biden won the election?
welp... i guess we cant
Hey, the live action Aladdin movie was actually pretty great
The box office says people did show up to Aladdin, to be fair.
I hadn't seen this video until now, post- Labor Day. It's weird how things worked out and B. got the nomination, given that this info was known.

Hey, Biden would be a pretty good candidate. For the Republican Party, that is.
well, here we are... maybe next time....
"I almost threw up my skeleton."
I nearly died.lol
Just found this channel today, and I'm already addicted. Thank you, Renegade Cut!
Same. It's rare to find a channel I agree with so much, on politics.
I'm watching this after Super Tuesday. And of course Biden is leading in delegates. This is depressing.
Ok the fact that you used the G1 as an example made my day, I love it!
Oh, shit, you put a sample of "Crypt" by Powerglove in the background in one part! I freaking love that song!
Welp. Here we are folks. Biden v Trump. HELP.
This video has aged well.
Biden was the best the democratic party could do apparently.
@@kiteofdark sadly
I wish I could hack CNN and MSNBC and play this video for 24 hours.
But how will get that free prison slave labour if we reduce the incarceration rate though?!
True, but we did Far Worse with toxic trump!
Your political essays are getting better and better.
Thanks!
You left out his constant attacks on Social Security
*Feel the Bern 2020!*
The more Joe opens his mouth, the more the base will hate him.
9:40-9:44
"We call this the White Flight"
Looking from now, your right. He is weak on keeping hate from spreading. He’s also not doing anything in terms of changing the system.
Well....... This aged well
Well this aged well
