    No, it’s pointing out that we shouldn’t just blame one president, we should also blame the current president for not lifting a finger to change the system.

    Like, imagine if someone kept talking about how bad the Holocaust was, and anytime people brought up a current genocide, they say we can’t talk about that because the Holocaust was worse.

    But also they refuse to take any steps to prevent future or even current genocides.

    We shouldn’t ignore the problem was worse. But we definitely shouldn’t refuse to fix the system because it’s not currently as bad as it used to be. Because absolutely nothing is stopping it from being even worse than the current worst time.
