    I think if you would understand that Democrats chose to keep funding Israel and Ice instead of getting more votes, you would understand why this meme doesn’t mean jack shit for the undecisive voters.

    Unless of course, you want to say that it wasn’t worth it in terms of voter count for Democrats.

      ICE is literally not funded today because Democrats wouldn’t fund the gestapo. Thank you for your input, low-information nonvoter.

        There’s a clear continuity of ICE policy between Obama, Biden, and Trump. Today’s ICE and its severe fascist escalations would not have been possible if Democratic administrations had not poured so much resources into it.

        But I guess bothering to remember anything that happened more than one presidential cycle ago makes one a “low information voter”.

          Policy yes, behavior no, or do you wanna show me all the public executions of American citizens ice did during the Biden years? Don’t be disingenuous.

        Democrats have carried out multiple genocides, what makes you think they wont fund the gestapo?

        Every Democrat government official since the creation of ICE has kept them funded. They didn’t just suddenly pop up in the last couple years. Obama and Biden could have easily destroyed them, but Dems like killing Nazis about as much as they did after WWII when we kept too many of them alive and free.

        I forgot that you guys have long term memory issues:

        https://www.democracynow.org/2024/8/30/kamala_harris_cnn_interview_policy_shift

        As she touted her support for hard-line border security and asylum policies, Harris positioned herself as tougher on immigration than Trump.

        https://www.cbsnews.com/news/deportations-by-ice-10-year-high-in-2024-surpassing-trump-era-peak/

        This one honestly speaks for itself. And hey, Obama appears as a cameo, too!

          We have documents full of links pertaining to reality as it is, as it was, and most importantly, receipts for how libs pretended it was otherwise.

          Y’all treat it as proof of being bots or spies or whatever the fuck you need to tell yourselves to refuse to engage with the evidence. I smell a projection tbh.

          That’s why Piefed removes accounts that prove you wrong. Reality sucks for fascists.

            Either I agree with and endorse your exact definition of socialism or I’m a fascist? Cool. That’s a really mature and reasonable way to look at the world.
