You missed my point entirely. My point was that we wouldn't have Trump had Democrats focused on popular progressive messaging and not the align with the Cheney's, always support genocide, pro-corporate messaging.
That's saying the right path was chosen by the dems, where the other would be the republicans. You may have meant to send a different message about aligning with the right, but that's not how it comes across. For what it's worth, I very much agree with you on that point.
That's not how I saw the photo. I didn't see it as being a Republican on one side and Democrat on the other. I saw it being an establishment Democrat on one side and a Bernie-like progressive on the other.
What lead you to see it that way? I read is as dems vs reps because those are the two parties we have and that meme has been showed with that context many tmes.
