Just for the Record(ing Industry): Joe Biden is an Enemy of Freedom and of Software Freedom

It has been a fantastic week for the RIAA and MPAA

Biden and Chris Dodd
"Former Sen. [then MPAA chief (connected to RIAA)] Chris Dodd is helping his longtime friend Joe Biden in choosing his running mate," the media reported back in July



Biden and Bush medalSummary: It's important to understand where Joe Biden comes from in order to better understand where he is going after settling in the White House

WE promised we'd not say negative things about Biden until after he ousts the resident of the White House. It's important, however, that people understand what we're dealing with here. The RIAA declared war on Free software last month (maybe it had done that before, but to a lesser degree) and Microsoft assisted the RIAA greatly. The RIAA is closely connected to MPAA, which was headed by a very close friend of President-elect Biden. Expect no good to come out of it (yes, Donald Trump would be worse, but that's not the point).



"Electing one dictator to spite the worse dictator still leaves us with the infamous #TwoDictators trap."When President Obama was in charge Hollywood got what it wanted. When Obama was still a candidate Biden was somewhat of a liability to him because of his pro-war leanings and his connections to Hollywood, which were noted by the media.

Biden and Bush medalIt's not surprising that Biden would later proceed to the spectacles on the left and the right (photo at the top), basically whitewashing the name of a horrible war criminal with a medal named "Liberty". Biden also claims responsibility for unconstitutional laws, so to what degree should people rejoice as opposed to pressure his administration? There's already a transition team being formed and we can expect it to be just about as corporate and corrupt as Trump's. Electing one dictator to spite the worse dictator still leaves us with the infamous #TwoDictators trap. The Green Party supporters and leftists in general are being compelled to support people who are to the left of nobody except Trump.
