Biden's choice for vice presidential candidate

It’s still gross when someone sexualizes an image of a woman without context and without their consent. There’s no excuse for doing this over and over again without the consent of the women whose image you’re utilizing.

He is whispering in her ear and she nods in agreement. The cut is done to make it look creepy.

If it is down to Rice and Harris, I want Rice. But if Harris get it, I’ll just be a little disappointed. Upthread I said I’d be mad if Harris gets picked, but that was before the president showed the world he thinks “Thighland” is the correct pronuniciation for “Thailand”. At this point, Biden could choose a mushroom to be his VP and it would still make sense in this timeline!

Some impressive threadshitting there, Omar.

And that has what, exactly, to do with the VP choice?

What happened, are Facebook and Instagram not working for you tonight?

And see those are exactly the edited vids that the GOP are showing around. They are faked and edited.

When you can’t defend Trump’s policies, all you have left are pathetic and infantile smears. Sad!

Who is that (the woman, not Biden, obvs)?

Yeah - I hadn’t expected such from that poster.

It’s gross enough to sexualize images of women without their consent, but children? Jesus. Disgusting and shameful.

I’m not a Trumpist, defender or apologist. I just think that Biden is a horrible choice as well, for the position of POTUS. The Democratic Party couldn’t find a suitable candidate, so it fell back on the most recent VP, and managed to shove Biden through the primaries due to the pandemic.

It’s a sad state of affairs for our country that these are the only choices we could come up with.

That’s no excuse for sexualizing images of women and children without their consent.

Thank your candidate for doing that.

You can’t blame others for your own actions. You posted these images, with no context, and without the consent of those women and children. That is something you did, not anyone else.

Public images do not require consent. The context is that Biden has a habit of inappropriate touching.

Cite that those particular women and children in the images you used have accused Biden of inappropriate touching? Without such a cite, then you’re deciding, without their consent, what they have experienced in terms of being touched sexually. That’s misogynistic, objectifying bullshit. It’s disgusting and shameful, whether or not it’s legal. Those are people fully capable of deciding for themselves, and it’s very wrong to decide for them, much less to sexualize images of their bodies being touched, when you don’t have their consent to use these images in this way.

He had already sewed up the win before covid.

Pretty sure that woman in the first gif you posted had specifically said she didn’t feel creeped out.

The misogyny card is a great one to throw out there since it’s such a hot button around here.

It doesn’t matter if no one complained. Biden’s actions are open for all to see. It doesn’t matter if his actions are pure, if it’s just grandfatherly affection. The VP and the POTUS or any elected official, shouldn’t be that handsy with people he has just met for a photo-op. It brings into question his personal judgement.

True or not, none of that excuses or justifies your disgusting, objectifying posts. These are your actions being criticized, and you’re just trying to blame it on others. You can’t blame others for your own posts. That was your decision, and it’s disgusting.

Monica Lewinsky initially also said that her affair with Bill Clinton was consensual, and considered him a great man. She has since changed her initial impression and believes that men in power should check themselves.
