Yes, itβs contextually relevant. But presentation matters. When you post βanti-ICE protests in Portlandβ with a picture of the β92 LA riots, it cements a narrative into your audience. Thatβs responsibility. Itβs not aiding clarity.

That really is it. Trump is a demonic rape ogre who farts into a microphone and Obama is an effete MSNBC intellectual who played the FP game.
Also their victims were vast majority non-white, so they don't count.

Goes to show that respectability & the appearance of bureaucratic process allows you to:
- assassinate US citizens with no due process
- Turn entire families in charred hamburger
- Rain fire on sovereign nations with impunity
You can get a Netflix deal out of it, rather than a Hague trial.

This is not new or unique, but it is to some (like the NYC Bar).
Obama used drone strikes 563x, killing 3,797 people including as many as 807 civilians (and 3 US citizens!).
He told aides in 2011: βTurns out Iβm really good at killing people. Didnβt know that was gonna be a strong suit of mine.β
