I would rephrase the title to say “Also” and not “Instead”. Biden did reform immigration detention. He also moved to more private detention centers. There are no longer children in cages, families being separated, or families being detained at all.
If the bar is low, its bc of the past 50+ years of neoliberal politics. Its much easier to burn systems to the ground a la trump than it is to build new ones from scratch or improve existing systems.
Complaining about the bar being too low doesnt get it any higher, especially if ones vote or lack thereof goes towards helping the fascist win.
Youll find that such actions are much harder in places like russia, you know, the place the opposing candidate is busy fellating.
Eta: and u didnt even address that burning the system down is easier than building anything up. Where are those systems of mutual aid we would need for a revolution to succeed? Bc the red painted fascists are busy convincing us that lgbtq folks aint in danger instead of, you know, working to make life easier for anyone.
That’s literally the opposite of what Biden’s administration is doing
God it’s so frustrating fighting against the tidal wave of misinformation. How did Republicans win at social media??
Because morons who fancy themselves revolutionaries are more than happy to join hands with fascists. “After Trump, us!”
