What the fuck are you even talking about, the student loan forgiveness stuff has NOTHING to do with the filibuster.
I'm not defending shit, you literally have no fucking idea how this country works, so you might want to sit the fuck down and shut the fuck up and let the adults talk.
You realize Biden did an executive order for student loans because he couldn't get the votes in Congress right? This is what the supreme court blocked.
Removing the filibuster rule (something they CAN do with a 51 vote majority) would have made it possible to pass laws with a simple majority of 51 votes. They had 53 Democrats sitting in the Senate and a majority in the House when Biden took office.
It's funny that you needed this explained to you to understand why I was talking about the filibuster. You are so uneducated that you couldn't even understand what I was talking about. So instead of using your brain you instead concluded "what does this have to do with student debt? Am I stupid? No! It must be him!"
Here, you might need to watch this while the adults talk.

You've lost the plot, you literally blamed the student loan forgiveness stuff on Biden. Go back up and look for yourself.
Wait that's too generous. Just moving the goalposts.
Biden attempted to forgive $20k through Congress, and they shot it down.
His Executive Order was complete forgiveness, so it was much better anyway.
So you're blaming Biden for the Senate not using the filibuster to forgive 20% of student loans, but then mad at Biden for not doing enough for doing an E.O. to forgive ALL OF IT after that failed?
And nothing to say about the people and groups who fought that tooth and nail, bringing in entities like MOHELA who stated themselves they wanted nothing to do with it, so they could claim standing.
Nothing to say about the corrupt Supreme Court.
No, this is on Biden.
