Did he do it for the memes?

No it isn"t, it's a move from extreme right to right. Moving from far-right populism to Neoliberalism is not closer to Socialism, it's Capitalism in a different form. Politics and economics are not really a spectrum eith quantifiable numbers, they are positions, the spectrum is just shorthand.
Secondly, we are already right wing. Electing Biden again is not going to move him or his positions leftward, it's stagnating in the right wing.
So, left.
No, I just explained that politics isn't as simple as a 1 dimensional line. Voting for continued right wing politicians isn't moving to the left.
If you are far right, in order to be just right you need to move towards the left. It is as simple as that. If you don't wanna, that's fine, but it is what it is.

That's not how politics works. Politics is not a game of one dimensional lines, but positions. We currently are in a Neoliberal hellscape under a genocidal Neoliberal. Voting for the genocidal Neoliberal will continue said genocidal Neoliberalism. It will maintain the position, and move no closer to Socialism.
If Trump gets elected, Neoliberalism will shift towards fascism/right-wing populism.
Neither Trump nor Biden represents moving to the Left, and will not.
And moving towards fascism is not the opposite direction of what you want?
Neither are closer to Socialism. Fascism is bad, sure. So is Neoliberalism.
So it's all the same to you, gotcha. Mass deportations, end of reproductive rights, reversal of gay rights, less funding for public schools, Bible verses on the wall, the whole project 2025, that's all just as bad as right now?

Already happening under Biden.
Not really.
It is. Biden is continuing the border wall and has higher deporations than Trump. Trans restrictions just passed through the senate. Pentagon spending increased by 200 billion, while spending for social programs decreased by 20 billion. Roe V Wade was overturned.
It's already happening under Biden.
