Well clearly you're not a real lefty then pfft

I get your point and I don't disagree, but surely you get your relatives too?

Trump has bombed children. And he has RAPED children.

I mean that’s the reason we have the words: “better” and “worse.”

If something is “better than”, then yes, I believe it is better.

Y’all act like anyone said Obama was a saint. Hell, some saints have been worse than Obama.

Ha ha, and it only gets worse from here. Not just in the US, across the west. Respective of party, every new administration worse than the last. Unless we organize.

Well, Trump is bombing children now so of course the previous president who bombed children is okay.

What an utterly daft statement that is lacking in solidarity. Like, bruh, they both bombed children in the pursuit of Imperialist power. That should fall well below the minimum expectations required for you to willingly be supportive of either candidate. This shortsighted, reactionary mentality is exactly how we ended up with the society we have.

Continuing to settle for the 2nd worst option only ensures that society continues to backslide as the threat of something even worse traps people into ceding power to a "lesser evil" which in turn only enables evil to continue to hold power over the people.

And absolutely laughing at the insinuation that Obama was even remotely left-wing. That is just a politically illiterate statement.

Leftists literally want to kill right-wingers. They only criticise 'centrists'.

The fact that you think you're the bigger victim because people try to reach you with words instead of fists or bullets is your own naivety.

He ordered a drone strike on an American citizen

"American citizen" is not a protection against designation as an enemy combatant, unless you want to tell a bunch of Nazi volunteers in WW2 that getting shot by the 101st Airborne was actually a war crime against their precious little souls.

and bombed schools, weddings, and hospitals (including a doctor’s without borders hospital).

I suspect you're thinking of an incident in Afghanistan wherein a US gunship hit a Doctors Without Borders hospital. While abhorrent and arguably a war crime, it was not sanctioned by Obama, and Obama, in fact, was a prominent voice in demanding an investigation of the incident.

The only wedding strike I remember was in Yemen, which was a big issue at the time, and resulted in limitations on the military's ability to carry out drone strikes without presidential approval.

The only school strike I can find were performed under Bush, though considering that the Bush Administration did not reveal many of its strikes, there may very well be more.

Obama's drone campaigns were performed with a callous disregard for civilian casualties compared to what they should have been performed with, and US PR worked double-time to try to paint them as civilian casualty-free (claiming something absurd like a 0.2% civilian casualty ratio). That's not the same as saying that Obama targeted schools, weddings, and hospitals.

He extended the patriot act and persecuted Snowden and manning for telling us that the federal government was regularly sidestepping the bill of rights.

1. Those aren't war crimes. Shitty, sure, arguably against international or Federal law. But that's not what a fucking war crime is.

2. 'persecuted Snowden and manning' how so? At best, by not pardoning them? Do you know how the executive and judiciary work in this country? I'm sorry Snowden found it more convenient to go and stick Putin's hand up his ass instead of defending himself in court or fleeing to any fucking legitimate country. I'm more legitimately sorry that Ms. Manning ended up punished for whistleblowing, though I also realize that military prosecutors cannot reasonably say "Oh, well, we think this leak is for a good cause, so we're not prosecuting." A pardon by the executive would have been much better than the commutation she eventually received, and a immediate commutation preferable to the much-delayed one. You want to say that's a terrible sin of Obama's? I'm not in disagreement. But it's not a fucking war crime.
