Biden’s views on abortion rights have shifted since then [1974]. In 2007, for example, Biden was given a 0% score by the (pro-life) National Right to Life Committee and a 75% score by the NARAL Pro-Choice America. “I accept church rule personally, but not in public life,” he said in October 2012. On 25 April 2019, the anti-abortion Life Site News website announced Biden’s candidacy this way: “Pro-abortion Joe Biden announces entry into 2020 presidential race.”

Always defending the powerful, this account.

Noting the facts is not defending anyone. You should know the facts. Stop defending idiots who post misleading Tweets. And to say that Biden is the actual power behind anything is - you have to admit - really dumb.

Joe Biden is being defended. This is wrong and bad. "FYI it’s not okay to be a grown adult at the end of the year 2021 and still believe Joe Biden is a good president." -- Caitlyn Johnstone

You should know the facts.

The facts are that Joe Biden said this, and the New York Times reported it. Are you doubting the New York Times' truth-telling ability?

They reported the evaluation of the intelligence community. The New York Times would never lie.

FFS - he said it in 1974, and has said many things in the past few decades, many of which show that he's not exactly the same now as he was in 1974. Regardless of whether he believes or doesn't believe in the comment taken out of the 1974 context, you should not try to be dishonest about a quotation that's decades old. Instead, say that he said it in 1974. It's really simple. Try to be honest, Chipit.

Defending Biden again. Extremely sus. Extremely.

Since when do politicians get a break from saying things? Biden is Catholic, this is how Catholics think. He's lying. And you're helping him lie. Doesn't that feel dirty?

Go check the want ads. There are better jobs out there than this.

No - Chipit - I'm just pointing out that comments made 47 years ago, and approaches since then, are important to put into context. Much of the disinformation on Saidit is based on information taken out of its original condext. This is not related to Biden, but to the foolishness of people posting and upvoting lies. I would also point this out if it happened to a Trump comment about 'grab them by the pussy' or whatever. Indeed, Trump is the perfect gentleman today, and would never grab someone by the pussy.
