Yes it was being posted by some fascists on Twitter... but also by everyone else
That's sort of the entire fucking problem. Fascists see the symptoms of a problem and either misdiagnosis or cynically obfuscate the issue. But in the end, these types of comics hit with people because the problems absolutely exist. This pisses liberals off who want to ignore them or pretend Biden can't do anything. And right wing, fascist types just want to blame all problems on minorities.
It's one of those "tricky" (can't think of a better word right now) situations where the source of the propaganda is a piece of a shit... but the message itself is correct. Biden's administration runs on "aren't you better off?!?" when the obvious answer is "no! And it's your fault, old man!" It's just, again, the solutions have to be correctly pointed out that it has absolutely zero to do with how many non-white male pilots, etc. are hired and everything to do with the US government's total and absolute ownership by Capital which paralyzes and incentivizes politicians like Biden, et al. into doing absolutely nothing.
