Being pedantic and defending fascists is also very hot right now among shitlibs apparently

Replace the caption with any of the other shit biden specifically has done that they mentioned if you're this much of a redditor

I'm all for blaming Biden for things he did.

Sanctioning the ICC is not one of them and was done by his opposition.

Dems and reps are equally part of the ruling class. There is no real "opposition" between the two aside from optics.

And as you'd expect, Biden does of course agree with this move like another user mentioned.

75% of Democrats voted against this

100% of Republicans voted for

Biden does not agree with this move. Denouncing is using words and sanctions are actions. Biden has implied that he opposes this bill and his administration have stated that they do not support sanctions. https://www.bbc.com/news/articles/cm5512l7yero

There absolutely is opposition between the sides.

The right wants to take away womens rights.

The left wants to take away gun rights.

Just as a quick example.

? Of course there is opposition between the left and the right. What does that have to do with two right wing genocidal capitalist parties?

[–] [email protected] 3 points 5 months ago* (last edited 5 months ago) (1 children)

They are not both right wing.

Examples:

Left:

Student loan forgiveness.

Right:

Blocking student loan forgiveness.

Alternately:

Right:

Capital Punishment

Left:

Blocking Capital Punishment

Is it also "left wing" to bypass congress to send weapons to a genocidal state faster? Or denounce the ICC for actions against that state like in the post you're commenting on?

Studen loan

Education Dept. announces highest federal student loan interest rate in more than a decade

[–] [email protected] 6 points 5 months ago

And the student loan interest rate has fuck all to do with the plans on the left to forgive student loans, plans which are continually blocked on the right.

You can't take a single issue and go "BoTh sIdEs aRe tHe sAmE" when they clearly are not.

The right wants to invade Mexico for gods sake!
