It is done. Finito. No mas. Dementia has sunk in the rear naked choke, and Joe Biden\u2019s neurology is tapping.<\/p>\n<p>Americans are watching live proof that their country does not require a president with functioning gray matter in order for decisions to get made and policies to be enacted in the Executive Branch of the US government. The wars and militarism have ticked on uninterrupted, the authoritarian agendas keep getting rolled out, and the same political status quo continues to be advanced. You could not ask for more conclusive proof that for all the fuss that gets made about US presidents and presidential elections, it is nothing more than a figurehead position for an empire that is not actually run by its official elected government.<\/p>\n<p>And it\u2019s only fitting that the US president\u2019s brains should be leaking out his ears even as the brain rot of the ideology which gave rise to him is exposed in front of the entire world.<\/p>\n<p>There is a kind of poetical beauty in the fact that the so-called \u201cmoderates\u201d of western liberalism are cheerleading for the re-election of a half-dead dementia patient while his administration facilitates an active genocide in Gaza, perpetuates a world-threatening proxy war in Ukraine, prepares for war with Lebanon, and militarizes with increasing aggression against Russia and China, all while killing the earth\u2019s ecosystem and contributing to the poverty, sickness and oppression of the American people at home. The brain rot of their worldview has a guy with an actual rotting brain as its official representative.<\/p>\n<p>The Biden administration has completely discredited every value that western liberals claim to uphold. Peace. Justice. Human rights. A free press. Opposition to racism. Opposition to tyranny. These freaks just plum forgot that genocide is a bad thing on October 7, and probably won\u2019t remember again until the imperial propaganda machine needs to use that accusation against the next government that the empire has targeted for regime change.<\/p>\n<p>The \u201cmoderates\u201d and \u201ccentrists\u201d of the western world are in reality violent extremists, and not just violent extremists but the most murderous and destructive extremist group on the face of this planet. Not one group on Washington\u2019s list of designated terrorist organizations has a body count that\u2019s even a tiny fraction of what the US empire has racked up <a href=\"https:\/\/watson.brown.edu\/costsofwar\/papers\/2023\/IndirectDeaths\"  target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">just in the 21st century alone<\/a>.<\/p>\n<p>This is the political ideology that Biden has aligned with throughout the entirety of his far-too-long career, from when he was just a baby swamp monster elected to the Senate at the age of 30 all the way until now as he watches all the cognitive flotsam and jetsam of his decades of Beltway soul-selling blur together like oil paints on the palette of his ruined cerebral matter.<\/p>\n<p>This is who Joe Biden is. This is who western liberals are. They are the carnage, starvation and disease in Gaza. They are the biosphere strangling to death under the boot of ecocidal capitalism. They are the nuclear missiles being rolled into position around the world. They are a dying brain and a dying heart on a dying world of their own making.<\/p>\n<p>Hopefully the death of this toxic, omnicidal ideology won\u2019t be too far behind the death of Joe Biden.<\/p>\n<p>________________________________<\/p>\n<p style=\"padding-left: 40px;\"><em><a href=\"https:\/\/www.transcend.org\/tms\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/02\/Caitlin-Johnstone.jpg\" ><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignleft size-full wp-image-180156\" src=\"https:\/\/www.transcend.org\/tms\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/02\/Caitlin-Johnstone.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"100\" height=\"100\" \/><\/a><\/em><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p style=\"padding-left: 40px;\"><em>Caitlin Johnstone is a rogue journalist, poet, and utopia prepper<\/em>. <em>Contact: <\/em><a href=\"..\/..\/..\/..\/TRANSCEND\/T%20M%20S\/TO%20POST\/A%20BYLINES\/admin@caitlinjohnstone.com\">admin@caitlinjohnstone.com<\/a><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><a target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/caitlinjohnstone.com.au\/2024\/07\/13\/the-biden-administration-has-exposed-the-brain-rot-of-western-liberals\/\" >Go to Original \u2013 caitlinjohnstone.com.au<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>At the NATO summit in Washington on 11 Jul 2024, Biden referred to Zelensky as \u201cPresident Putin\u201d, to Kamala Harris as \u201cVice President Trump\u201d, and said he is \u201cfollowing the advice of my commander-in-chief.\u201d This man\u2019s brain clearly does not work.
