MODERATORS
Actually, the other side mostly wants things to stay the same. Their constituents, on the other hand, would like to see better healthcare, education, unions, and stronger safety nets. But since the other side aren’t fascists, their voters are stuck with them.
This right here ☝️. The grassroots democrats I could support. It's the Chuck Schumers and John Fettermans that will undermine the party from within that make supporting democrats difficult.
There's always a rotating villain.
Used to be Dianne Feinstein. Then it was Joe Manchin. Then it was that Sinema bitch. Now it's Fetterman and Schumer.
And people just kind of ignore the pattern and pretend it isn't a party-wide PR strategy.

A lot of world class dipshits on this very platform think both sides are equal. Getting pretty tired of reading
"Both sides are fascist, one's just more open about it."
Stupidest fucking sentiment I've ever had the displeasure of reading. Absolute lack of education and critical thinking skills to say shit like that.
I was banned from the lemmy.ml memes community for saying the Democrats are slightly better than Republicans. After saying it I needed to argue with 20 people at once, all with preprepared arguments, who were adamant that both sides are the same.
I've also recently seen that that community is extremely toxic in other ways.
The lack of critical thinking skills is when people cannot understand that one side is fascist and the other enables the fascists.
To many leftist, capitalist imperialism is just fascism in disguise, and they are entirely correct.
I don't think they're both equal, they're certainly both shit.
How do you measure the quality of shit?
Let's just say I wouldn't let Maxine Waters or Mitch McConnell watch my dog
If "shittiness" was a binary, they'd definitely the same. However, in the real world it's a spectrum that looks more like:
Beautiful!
Now, add some marionette strings to both parties, connect those strings to a billionaire's hand and it will be a perfect representation!

As “the other side” don’t speak for me. I want guillotines and a substantial redistribution of wealth until we no longer have billionaires.
Obviously the republicans are genuinely terrible people
But I'll give you an equivalence that actually holds up
Both parties have their snouts in the trough and depend on huge levels of external funding which completely undermines your democracy
That is a problem that needs to be fixed

Correction: They SAY they want health care and education, get elected, and then spend their political capital making most people poorer, doing fascism, and genociding.

the media is owned by private individuals with their own agenda.
To be honest what I really want is fully automated luxury gay space communism.
They won't give us that either.
That's fine, we'll give it to them for free.
It isn't theirs to give. It is ours to take.

No, the media doesn't think that, the owners of the media wants the media to say that they're equal
Equal? Universal healthcare is derided as the delusions of radical extremists. A mere pipedream of anti-semitic tankies, if we're talking the gambit of American media.
The media is just a billionaire propaganda machine. They have to make both sides sound equally right so both sides keep fighting each other instead of fighting the billionaires causing all the problems.
The democrats had the house, senate, and presidency for 4+ years. Where is that Healthcare?
Spoiler: Both sides are bad, they both get paid off. Its just that one side is really fucking honest with you right now ... to the point where they commit crimes in public because no one will do anything about it.
And we should thank Trump for opening eyes of so many dumb people that thought otherwise. It had to get really bad before we see any changes. Though I see in comments many are still sucking off dems
Yes, being insane for Democrats is almost (but not really) as bad as being MAGA.

We need to keep repeating this, it's a CLASS war.
It's always been a class war. Sometimes we do some of the fighting but the rich are always fighting.

i felt embarassed trying to be a centrist at one point because i figured i should move where their goal posts were. they're trying to normalize shifting goalposts and they know it. unfortunately there's no actual social punishment for this.
both sides are bad. One is just infinitely worse.
People refusing to vote for the lesser of two evils is what got us the worse evil!

It’s wild how often both sides gets used to blur real differences.
