So, I'll give Biden credit for keeping that promise right now. Is Biden going to solve racism? Biden would have to kill every racist regardless of their race or gender (racist blacks are just as racist as racist whites these days). Racism is still to lucrative for Biden and the Democrats to solve at this point. I don't see the SWJ's embracing equality and giving up their jobs and all the fruits associated with their jobs either. I don't see Biden stopping dumping billions of American tax dollars into corrupt institutions and countries that most Americans don't trust or give two shits about either. I don't see Biden stopping climate change in it's tracks  either.

At least he is trying to solve problems rather than perpetuating the status quo.

I agree COVID will be solved, though not before Trump and the Republicans makes it bad indeed.

The Civil Rights Movement of the 1950s and 1960s resulted in laws which changed certain racist behaviors. It is likely to happen again if the Republican aren't in position to fight in favor of racism.

To some extent you need to enforce equality, or the racist will do what the racists have always done. I'm not a big fan of the SJWs either, but the fight should be fought.

I do tend to think the commitment to stop climate change will fall short during the crisis. The economic problems falling out of the the Republican lack of a COVID response are unnecessarily great. I anticipate a green awakening, as the young prophets try to correct the inadequate response.

The recent Republican shtick is to say that domestic spending, solving the problems of the working man and minorities, is socialism and thus not American. I'm not buying it. Government is necessary to attack certain problems, including domestic ones. Making it a habit to not solve problems will in the long term eventually catch up with you. The problems just become larger and more intense. Ask George III, Buchanan, Hoover and Trump what happens if you choose not to attack the central issues of a crisis.

Well, maybe not George III or Trump. They had / have problems grasping reality.
