Biden's on Wrong Side of The Uncanny Valley

I watched the entire Biden press conference thing earlier today. I wanted to see if they could "Bernie" Joe up enough to get some coherent talking points for his campaign.
The black mirror episode began for me as Joe responded to the scripted questions, he was like a high end computer reader, the accent is okay, and the voice sounds natural enough but the computer's vocal rendition , just like Joe's cadence when speaking, is soulless. It has a surreal creepy vibe coming from Joe's mouth but no one being home. ...my take away, my instinctive impression, was that of an old man Joe in a nursing home. I never once saw a man who could be president, and except for Mark Cuban, I don't think the majority of the electorate did either.
I know I'm biased and I have never respected Joe Biden but I don't think my impressions were caused by my bias...was it just me or did anyone else get creeped out, just a little bit?

My exact comment in the in-game-thread when the press conference ended was, "that was creepy".

It's old man Joe in a nursing home begin forced to do things he is not capable of at this point in his life. Nothing coming out of Joe's trap, even when coherent, is organic or genuine.
ETA: it's kind of sad. The problem the guy has Marxist puppet masters so I can't have sympathy for the guy. It's too dangerous. He must be defeated and defeated badly. He represents way too much evil.

It’s obvious at this point that he doesn’t even have a family member who genuinely gives two shits about him as a human being.

Well it's a small poll but I'll take this as a conformation, that's exactly how I felt.

almost like maybe they know he never really gave a shite about them and anytime he faked like he did it was for the cameras

He didn't seem "presidential". He didn't sound like a leader. He sounded like a guy who was forced out on stage and was doing what others wanted him to do. It was sad.
