This older voter is calling bullshit. If there has ever been a bill or law that targets specific groups of people to subjugate, it has Biden's fingerprints in it. In most cases he wrote and sponcered the bill. Patriot Act, Crime Bill, Bankruptcy bill prohibiting student debt, DOMA, DADT, welfare reform, etc. The list is endless. He has 50 years of Congressional to show he does not represent us in government.
Condoning genocide is not the lesser evil
It is compared to advocating it
And that's where I find your argument unconvincing. If Trump and Biden really are the same, then there's no point in voting for either. But they're clearly not the same. Above meme aside, another example is that while Trump demanded that Mike Pence refuse to certify Biden's election in 2020, Biden personally certified Trump's in 2016. If you care about the right of voters to pick a president, that's a huge difference right there.
With a history as long as Biden's of course he's done things we disagree with. Pretty much all the things you listed are things he's shifted against since. The fact that you need to go to things Biden doesn't even currently support for your best examples speaks volumes. Would Biden's next Supreme Court appointee overturn gay marriage and reinstate DOMA? Because Trump's probably would. If you're against student debt, you gotta be joking - Biden's the only president who's ever even attempted mass debt relief. Look at what he's done as president in the present, not as senator a long time ago.
