Galen: Biden has suffered from and struggled with a speech stutter from childhood.
How good are Australians playing god on US elections and deeming whether candidates are fit for office or not while averting their gaze from the behaviour of their 'god' Trump, the GOP, think tanks and media in support. You are promoting just another conspiracy theory..... Posted by Andras Smith, Monday, 8 March 2021 9:47:32 PM

Andras,
I don’t like Trump, I am not left or right, or a GOP supporter. How can I support the GOP, I am an Australian and don’t support any political faction/party in the US or political parties here. I like to assess policies and recent performance before I decide whom to vote for, so please apologise for shooting the messenger and not responding vis the message. “Conspiracy theory”. Where did you get that rubbish from? All I did was post another writers observations and documented information. You obviously can’t comprehend and don’t understand the difference between my own arguments or opinion (which, in this case where non existent in my two posts) and the intent for someone to consider the claims of another and thereby respond to the claims they raise. You require additional education if you want any credibility, perhaps it’s too late for that to occur. Galen Posted by Galen, Tuesday, 9 March 2021 12:33:42 AM

Planta, you posted ‘Crazy mhaze Wish I had Biden's cognitive skills. He was voted in fairly and he's the most powerful man on Earth. You're not.’
I admire your self belief Biden is the most powerful man on earth. If I tried hard enough I am sure I could name at least 100 people more likely to hold that position in reality. I won’t of course, because I know how you like to play your little games in this forum. Basically, you rarely responded to people politely and your post above just further cements evidence of your rudeness and childishness to others posting here on OLO. There’s still time to grow up.

And many of the Republican governors are continuing full bore on voter suppression.

Galen: The public record via credible media clearly states that Biden has suffered from a stutter about which he has spoken of, how is that a conspiracy theory?
The earth is flat too...? Unfortunately conservative politics has been taken over and influence from the US by those who promote white nationalism, crazy forms of Christianity and conspiracy theories. This makes Australian enthusiasts appear more interested in looking up to foreign US culture vs. local, and not realising how stupid they look.....

Further, the deeper issue in the self important Anglosphere of the US, UK and Australia is that electors or citizens are not well informed due to hollowed and consolidated media, with media promoting white Christian nationalist agitprop and radical right libertarian socio-economic theory and policies; NewsCorp or 9Fairfax, IPA, CIS, ASPI etc. anyone?
So much for freedom of ideas let alone original ideas and innovation up against a wall of often conservative cliches i.e. pig headed pale male and patriarchal nativist Christian conservatism..... while Australia slides further on economic diversity and importance as an independent nation....
