I get the vibe “lefty memes” is a misnomer, and an actual liberal like me won’t be accepted here even though I’m the definition of “left wing” so I’ve never tried posting anything in here yet - but everywhere else this was posted so far has hated it, so I’m trying here now.

I like this meme because I noticed parallels in how Republicans and Democrats refuse to coordinate to defend my rights and protect me and my loved ones from senseless danger from extremists.

I’m not quite ready to give up on finding a community where people like this meme. I know it’s actually one of the most well-crafted ones yet, no matter what some people say. It was originally posted by @fediverse_fremont@lemmy.world here

(Mirrored “Is this a pigeon” meme format, repurposed to represent the lack of US uniparty politics, not blindly misused without understanding it as some commenters will say)

A Republicans on one side and a Democrat on the other, gesturing toward the butterfly between them labeled “compromise” with caption of them saying “What is this thing?”
