You are being purposefully obtuse if you think this mean isnt attempting to put Dems in a spot where Repubs arent.

On the contrary, it's putting the Dems in a spot where the Repubs are.

I agree, that is the reality, but by only calling out Dems its implying Repubs are different. To me that is the apparent purpose of this meme.

"Oh, Dems turn a blind eye to genocide in Palestine" true, but Repubs do as well. Its almost the whole of US Congress that is complicit.

You're on a Communist community, you aren't going to find fans of the GOP.

Correct, but this statement is bannable on Lemmy.world.
