We all know he struggled with a speech impediment. That doesn't explain away his lies, rape accusation, inappropriate behavior accusations, shoddy record or mental faculty issues. We don't need to be medical experts to notice this. So quit gaslighting, and come correct next time. I don't need to weaponize a speech problem when he has given us plenty to weaponize against him. I didn't comment on the rape allegations. I didn't comment on his alleged lies. I didn't comment on his alleged inappropriate behavior. I didn't comment on his record. I commented on his stuttering, because that is what this thread is about. A video of him stuttering. The title of this thread is "Biden Stumbles On Live TV." This thread mirrors identically the kind of conversations started by the Right, disillusioned Sander's supporters, and Russian trolls, who questioned Hilary's health in the wake of her receiving the last Democratic nomination: is she having a seizure, does she have a brain injury, etc.? Spoiler I will say, on a personal level, I am currently taking care of a loved one with cognitive issues related to dementia. I understand the impact cognitive issues have on an individual, the people around them, and the individuals ability to do their job. It's not something I take lightly.

The title of this thread references him "stumbling." Stumbling is literally an attribute of those affected by a verbal stutter. Hence, I addressed his stutter. In a thread about him "stumbling" I brought up his stutter. In a thread about his "stumbling" you brought up rape allegations, his record, his alleged lies, and his alleged inappropriate behavior, and used Trumpian nicknames for a politician you dislike. If one of us is indulging in things which are irrelevant to the subject of this thread, I think it's clear who that is. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

You tried (and failed) to derail a thread about Biden by trying to make him look sympathetic and framing criticism against him as an attack on his stutter. I'm not dumb.

People seem to have a misunderstanding about what a stutter actually is. It's not just the repetition of a single syllable, like you see in movies. It effects how you speak in a much more encompassing way. Symptoms of a stutter include: repetition of words, uneven speech rate, physical changes like facial tics, lip tremors, excessive eye blinking, and tension in the face and upper body, hesitation or pausing before starting to speak, interjections of extra sounds or words into sentences, such as “uh” or “um," repetition of words or phrases, tension in the voice, rearrangement of words in a sentence. If you actually believe Joe Biden has cognitive issues you wont have to wait long to find an example of them manifesting themselves. The video you thought was significant enough to create a thread about though, seems to me, as a person who also has "ears and eyes," to be an example of his stutter.

If you had observed Biden throughout the years you can see he has changed recently. That is clear to anyone with eyes and ears. This is only ONE example of many in the past year alone.

NCgaga 4,345 Posted April 19, 2020 Share Posted April 19, 2020 Way to go democrats. You had several candidates that were better and up for the challenge, but y’all pushed Joe through? And don’t get me started on the Bernie Bro’s on this site who think they are somehow helping the situation. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hybrid AT 78 Posted April 19, 2020 Share Posted April 19, 2020 Omg the histrionics and meltdowns in this thread Biden was accused of dementia all through the primary and we all know how it turned out. Bernie supporters wanted him to fumble on the debate stage vs Bernie in the final debate but he was able to stand his ground and rebut sharply and win the primaries. One has to wonder why y'all are interested in making fun of the nominee based on an 18 sec clip out of a ~10 min interview shared by a DailyCaller opinion writer. Literally everyone knows Biden is not the most polished guy and wasn't the best choice, but it is what it is now. The primary is over, folks. Focus on Trump and his atrocities and weaknesses instead of nitpicking and overanalyzing every move of the Democratic nominee. "I was protected by the monks of Azarath, I was raised by my friends. They are my family, this is my home and you are not welcome here." Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

I disagree that this is an example of cognitive decline, while also possessing fully functioning eyes and ears. It's nice to see that in spite of Sander's loosing, his supporters on GGD are maintaining the traditions they establish every Democratic primary; general rudeness and name calling.
