I am hearby coining a new term;
"Biden Blame Syndrome (BBS) is an inclination to disproportionately blame President Biden for a range of issues, regardless of his actual involvement. Those with BBS often fixate on Biden as a convenient scapegoat, attributing undue blame to him even when other factors or individuals are more responsible."
Used in a sentence: "Blaming Biden for greedflation? Classic case of BBS right there."

---More detailed information---
Propaganda is the source of BBS, meaning that individuals ignorant of the facts or harboring a latent bias against Biden may contract it themselves upon exposure to BBS propaganda.
The propaganda usually comes from influencers or politicians who are anti-Biden, motivated by political expediency, virtue signaling, ignorance, or a personal vendetta. They often spread outright lies to create a false narrative blaming Biden. Whether it's to help Trump or help their brand. They don't care about the consequences of their lies.
---Examples of BBS---
Example: "This country is not energy independent because of Biden!"
Reality: "Biden has taken steps to reduce our reliance on foreign fossil fuels, cutting our addiction to Russian imports. He's also approved more drilling permits within the US than ever before and invested heavily in renewable energy."
Another key factor is that whatever Biden is being blamed for, in reality, he's working to remedy the issues, that were actually caused by someone/thing else to begin with.
Example: "Inflation is all Biden's fault!"
Reality: Inflation is a complex global issue with various contributing factors, including Putin's invasion, the Ever Given situation, and the impacts of COVID.
However, in the US, inflation was exacerbated by Trump's $3.2 trillion tax cuts and mishandling of COVID, leading to multiple stimulus checks and trillions in cash infusions. Trump's $8 trillion addition to the debt was a product of his incompetence. It was either to benefit the ultra-rich or part of a necessity born out of his mismanagement of COVID.
He inherited a strong economy from Obama, but it deteriorated under his tenure, leaving Biden to inherit the aftermath. Thanks to the Inflation Reduction Act, Infrastructure Bill, and the CHIPS act, the US is now leading in combating inflation, with thriving markets. Biden is actively supporting Ukraine against Putin's invasion and has implemented measures like the child tax credit and loan forgiveness to assist lower and middle-class earners.
Example: "Gaza is all Bidens fault! He's Genocide Joe"
Reality: While the war in Gaza is a complex issue, attributing blame solely to Biden for civilian deaths overlooks key factors, such as the fact that it is Netanyahu's responsibility for not using weapons in ways to mitigate civilian deaths. The densely populated area exacerbates the death toll.
Additionally, neighboring countries like Lebanon, Egypt, Jordan, and Iraq refusing to accept refugees contributes to the crisis.
It's a confluence of factors, and holding Netanyahu accountable is crucial for addressing the humanitarian crisis effectively.
Additionally, Biden has been actively working to address the crisis by opening humanitarian corridors, plans to open a pier to bring aid into Gaza, and attempting to reign in Netanyahu's actions. He faces pressure from various sides not to abandon Israel and has military obligations to help protect it. He is trying to balance a delicate situation, and is being given undo blame and monikers like "genocide joe". He would not try to bring relief to Gazans if he was interested in seeing them eradicated. He also does not want to see Israel eradicated (Hamas's goal). We can only hope this war comes to an end sooner than later.
Typical traits of someone with BBS are that they are always highly propagandized. They're constantly fed lies and misinformation from people like Trump, random X users, Russian-controlled opposition, and various partisan politicians. Fake Progressives like @cenkuygur, Ana Kasparian, and @ninaturner have extreme cases of BBS and thus they spread the mind-disease to others day in and day out. In fact, Cenk is a pioneer in spreading BBS on the left. He has been doing it since Biden took office. Let's say Manchin did something wrong, or Sinema, suddenly it was actually Bidens fault. The list goes on really but...
That is all. I think you get the picture.

@BurgeeGames What's the discord invite link? Every one I try to use online says its invalid/expired. Also, how do I get into the beta? I'm currently playing the demo and enjoying it way more than I expected to lol
@mehdirhasan You realize Iran has been supplying Russia with shit tons of munitions and drones for years to use against Ukrainian civilians? That's why zelensky is aGAINST Iran you dolt.
@kilotonics Oh, oh no! "Team Liberal" lmao. You're obviously blinded by your adoration for a lying, manipulative, condescending fake leftist. Good job. I bet you watch a ton of Hasan.
@kilotonics Also, I know it's hard to see your queen Taylor Lorenz not being a perfect angel herself is hard to cope with but maybe if you broaden your scope a little bit you'll realize that people like her have one goal which is to enable fascism.
@kilotonics What a load of bullshit honestly. Taylor Lorenz was absolutely trying her best to drag Chorus through the mud and pretend some kind of nefarious acts where taken place. It was red meat for her far-left anti-Democrat audience and nothing else.
@grok@Afaan_ali2u I will find it eventually and get back to you. It's a pain in the ass to sift through dozens of old videos for a 2 second clip. If I can't find it, then I guess I am mistaking it with something else. But I am 99% sure this happened.
@JuliaDavisNews Hey, do you remember an episode of Russian State TV where one of the guests mentions that they too have files on Trump or something to that effect? I am trying to find that source but having trouble. Am I remembering it correctly?
@grok@Afaan_ali2u too many videos to sort through on their YT channel. Jake Broe also talked about it pretty sure. It was months ago. Go watch the videos and come back to me.
@TaxmanTm@elonmusk Lol..No. Trump doesn't believe in renewables. He's a psychological child who doesn't understand how anything works. Elon helped a fossil fuel cum guzzler win the election, now we ALL pay the price.
@elonmusk Yeah. no shit. Maybe you shouldn't have helped a PDF File Fossil Fuel guzzling lunatic win the election? I dunno...maybe that would have helped us.
@grok@Afaan_ali2u You need to search harder. It was posted on russian state media monitor. It was during the initial Epstein files controversy, and they said something along the lines that Israel is not the only country with files on Trump and he should remember that
