This is a positive of fandom. Is there a list somewhere of K-pop artists that have Hybe as their label? It would be nice to know who not to listen to.

Also, I have seen so many horrific videos and pictures coming out the past few days of children torn a part by bombs. It’s infuriating that Biden doesn’t care about those children, but he’s falsely talked once or twice about how Hamas beheaded Israeli babies on
October 7th. I hate him so much.

i found this with a google search and assume it's complete: https://hybecorp.com/eng/company/artist

and yeah, i know it gets me in trouble every time i say it here but there's no fucking way i can vote for that man after everything i've seen.

Same. We are really about to have other dude as the president and I don't see a difference in how they will each lead... In some ways I'd rather have T because at least he's obvious with his facism.

every time people respond with why biden's the better option it just exposes their self-centeredness lol

i legit don't get this take. i could see if he was up against a semi-normal candidate but he's not.

Nice use of an ad hominem fallacy.

[mayjailer]

shouldn't you be taking your bad day out on someone who doesn't deserve it somewhere?

Literally asked one person on here if they'd throw the queer community under the bus if you switched Palestine for the queer community and how Biden is complicit in massacring them to make things better for themselves and they said yes.

[normanikordei]

see you in the fields and trenches when they enact project 2025 then

[i_prefer_scummy]

You think Biden isn’t rolling back the same types of protections? Where are the differences???

[lone_concertina]

He's not, though. I don't want to vote for him either, but outside of the genocide (which is my line) he has actually done a good job for unions, workers, public transportation, and the kinds of things that make life eaiser but aren't glamorous. His team has done a shit job of communicating what he's done, though, so it's easy for people like you to say he would be the same as Trump.

Better on climate by sending bombs to drop on Gaza daily for 9 months.

[acidosaur]

do you understand what project 2025 actually is?

[normanikordei]

maybe educate yourself before you head to the polls. I hope you live in an irrelevant state

[xdecadentx]

Fam if you're government is so fucked up Trump can do that but Biden can't do anything to stop it even while in power and at one point holding the house and senate, then you have bigger problems.
