Maybe you're misreading my intention. The image is supposed to convey that the Democrats use Republicans as a threat so they can stay in power, and the frayed rope represents them losing control. What did you think I was trying to say?

That's an actual liberal stance I see thrown around way too often so without a /s or some other explicit commentary I can understand why the post would be taken at face value or without assuming there's an implied sentiment.

Maybe I put too much trust in the audience, but I wanted it to accurately depict liberal ideology while subtly undermining its hypocrisy.

I feel that, like if a lib had posted this then they'd have been sincere about it but it was you posting it so we all know what's up

I think the frayed rope is the difference. A lib would put an unbreakable chain on the elephant.
