No, I have no real investment in the American political system. I was pointing out the satire in the original photo was misplaced. As people have demonstrated in this conversation most of the interactions have made massive assumptions about why i made my comments rather then addressing my comment.
Perhaps you’re not aware of the concept of synecdoche,, where one part of something is used as a representative of the thing as a whole. You saw the float and said that it had nothing to do with trump (vaguely true despite the fact that many of his party still answer his beck and call), whereas the float has “republikaner” written on it, which despite not speaking German I can only assume means “republican”. So basically the float is depicting the republican party at large killing Ukraine, despite the fact that there are only two people shown.
This float is far from anything even remotely close to “subtle”, and yet that guy still couldn’t understand the float. I’d say media literacy is abismal but at this point it’s just reading.
As yes, Biden who famously blocks aid to Ukraine and openly talks about throwing US allies to Russia
You mean Biden, that guy who’s been indicted 93 times?
As the leader of a country the president is ultimately responsable and represents the actions of the country.
Trump has been out of office for 4 years…
Are you just here to be a punching bag for anyone on the left? If so, you’re doing a bang-up job, champ

German here, your assumption is correct
I think it means Republicans, plural, as in not only Trump. Which is an important distinction imo. Trump is just used as an example.
How exactly is Biden responsible for Republicans blocking any Ukraine aid that he’s trying to get through congress?
