    And yet Biden keeps the sanctions, and additional things Trump added like the terrorist list.

    And people wonder why the left keeps saying Dems and Republicans are the same. They’re a bit further apart on a small amount of domestic issues, but geopolitically? They’re just as evil and determined to keep/expand American domination and exploitation across the globe to the detriment of billions in the global south.

      I think trans people and abortions rights advocates could not disagree more.

      This would be why those who say “both sides are the same” are derided. You can make a very apt criticism of Democrats for continuing these policies when they have the ability to end them, while not minimizing LGBT rights and abortion rights.

      You aren’t going to win until you build coalitions, and you aren’t going to build coalitions until you learn to value issues that you don’t personally care about. All you do by saying the parties are the same is that you don’t care about what they differ on, and unsurprisingly, people on the left dislike those who think abortion and LGBT rights don’t matter.

      you’re absolutely right. perfect should be the enemy of good.

      you honestly believe the global south will be no worse if the world’s only hegemon turns fascist?
