it's such an unfunny joke I had to read it three times to even understand what she was trying to say

Some people are unfamiliar with Obama's drones.

or the genocide in Yemen, or his role as the deporter in chief, or that he engineered the largest transfer of wealth from the Black community to capital interests, or, or, or

Some people are. This particular people has absolutely no excuse for such ignorance lol

Crazy, isn't it?

During his presidency, Obama approved the use of 563 drone strikes that killed approximately 3,797 people. In fact, Obama authorized 54 drone strikes alone in Pakistan during his first year in office. One of the first CIA drone strikes under President Obama was at a funeral, murdering as many as 41 Pakistani civilians. The following year, Obama led 128 CIA drone strikes in Pakistan that killed at least 89 civilians.

I'm a level seven enlightened centrist. I wait in line at polling stations just so I can fill out a blank ballot.
