    That wording is misleading, in Biden’s first year he’s approved more than in any one of Trump’s first 3 years, not all 3 combined. Still fucking bad tho.

      That's bad wording to the point that it seems almost designed to give smug liberals a thing to correct people on when people try to call out Biden for sucking. I don't know how a person could think to phrase something in such a misleading way, like why not just compare first years? Something more straightforward that makes the same point?

        It's not meant for that. It's literally just corporations trying to pry the most clickable title possible out of a story.

          It's a strategy I've been noticing a lot. Say something blatantly misleading. Some guy 'um acktually's the misrepresentation leading people to walk away feeling like liberalism isn't that bad.

          Same shit happened with Kyle Milhouse, where the entire fucking trial was a series of 'um acktually's which didn't address the core problem and left people distracted enough for them to pass off actual fascism as justice.
