    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 capitalist class and are the parties of capital. 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?

            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

                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!
