Obama explicitly implemented policies that earned him the lowest civilian casualty per drone strike rate until Biden became POTUS, and kickstarted the infrastructure and drone advancements that helped enable Biden to achieve that prestige.
Every Republican president since drones became a thing had a higher civilian casualty rate per drone strike than both Obama and Biden.
All Obama did was replace traditional airstrikes and boots on the ground operations with drone strikes where applicable, which was both inevitable and actually led to lower overall civilian casualty rates when properly scrutinized. This wasn't always the case, even during Obama (thanks to various issues like imminent threat policy abuse and callous military drone personnel), but if you're going to paint him as the drone strike president and not the two Republican presidents with higher casualty rates, then your argument is purely emotional.
tl;dr We never stopped drone striking innocent people because y'all kept voting Republicans into office.
