      Fuck right off with the “both sides” BS. Yes, they have some awful similarities, but only one side has tRump selling the country for personal profit.

      I think the megabrained “both sides are the same” take is just a form of “centrism by action”. Only a handful of republicans signed the discharge petition on epstein, for instance.

      If 95% of one party wants to protect things everybody recognizes as crimes and the other is 100% against them then idk what to tell you except one side is willing to violate every law and constitutional amendment to fuck you over.

      The other will make rich people panic so hard they’ll spend tens of billions of dollars buying up media companies to posture them against even a milktoast democrat. Media companies aren’t directly profitable.

      One side is owned fully by billionaires.

      The other side is just owned enough to not be able to make a difference, but seem like they are trying.

        And you don’t see how ‘seem like they are trying’ while the other team builds up facism means they are working together?

        If you are okay with one Nazi in the room, there are two Nazis in the room.

          Of course they are, but its only the bribed ones at the top.

          At least the democratic party has people who are actually trying to fight for the people.

          but when so much of the republican party is owned, they unfortunately only need to own a very small percentage of the democratic party to control everything.

        Clinton gutted welfare and his administration also oversaw the repeal of the Glass-Steagull act. Obama and Biden built the cages that house many of the immigrants currently. Biden was the self-declared tough-on-crime senator that gave harsh sentences for drug violations while also being one of the architects of the current student debt situation. Democrats pretend, but all too often that’s all they do.

        Pretending they can do nothing while they watch you get fucked is actively making your life worse.
