OP thinking Hondorus is even in the Zeitgeist is funny and sad. That’s like Darfur or a dozen other forgotten, relatively small scale plights. Yemen is more well known.
I get the idea but this meme only applies to like 5 people. Also seems very “I’m 14 and this is deep”

It applies to nearly everyone who self identifies as a liberal or Democrat supporter.

There is nothing deeper beyond pointing out hypocrisy and inaction.
Most Americans left and right have no idea what Honduras is. Could be a city, a country, a last name. They don’t know. Don’t care either.
It’s a comic from 2018 and the current administration is plagiarizing Orwell and somehow Tolkien while living with the newly endemic COVID.
Liberals haven’t fundamentally (or at all) changed in the past 7 years.
I’m not American, and Obama did order war crimes, but I remember things being a little different.
I remember children being sent to the USA on their own, because it was believed that minors without guardians would be allowed to stay in the country instead of being deported.
I don’t remember the USA government stealing children.Obama created the process where they would deport the parents, but the children would be hold prisoner there, waiting to see a judge.
Then Trump increased the time to see a judge into several months, turned the prisons into torture centers, and increased the frequency it all happened.
That’s because Americans have collective amnesia and instantly forgot how bad the last president was the moment the next comes into office.
Nearly 45,000 such parents were removed in the first six months of this year, says the federal department of Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE).
At least 5,100 U.S. citizen children in 22 states live in foster care, according to an estimate by the Applied Research Center, a New York-based advocacy organization, which first reported on such cases last year.
And an unknown number of those children are being put up for adoption against the wishes of their parents, who, once deported, are often helpless to fight when a U.S. judge decides that their children are better off here.

Oh and not only was Dronebama the king of ‘kids in cages’, he was also allowing those children to suffer horrible abuses.
The allegations include reports of physical, verbal, sexual and psychological abuse of migrant children and the denial of clean drinking water and adequate food.
