    Yeah except you’re wrong.

    children in cages

    Republicans. Biden set up a task force to reunite the families.

    committing coups

    I don’t think this is Dem or Republican…we haven’t done coups since the Arab Spring. Although it would be nice if we managed to push Iran into one, that is definitely on the table.

    aggressiveely policing the world through the military

    Republicans. Republicans start wars, Democrats end them.

    circumventing UN goals

    Republicans.

    Like seriously, it’s that fucking meme over and over again.

    Republicans do bad things

    Idiots: “why would the Democrats do this??”

      1. Those detention centers are still open detaining illegal immigrants. Reuniting is a nice press event for continuing the status quo without media oversight.
      2. Obama did a coup in Honduras. Biden is building one up in Venezuela. We drop more ordinance all the damn time without being at war. Doesnt matter the president. We are arming a genocide in Palestine. We have no right to interfere with Iran and that sort of language is exactly the US exceptionalism problem. You can quibble and I know you will but jesus we have a bipartisan military problem.
      3. Both parties - see US history writ large
      4. seriously the UN agreements on climate change exclude US military, if you think that is partisan you have been conned.

      They are working in collaboration with corporate interests. Reducing it to one party is ignorant to the actual problem, but you’ve stated its’s a meme so I guess you’re right. We should just shut up and accept that we shouldn’t demand a presidential primary for the DNC.
