        You’re just being snarky because it’s true. Two sides of the same political coin that is the Great Farce of American politics, the latest Third World country as it currently stands.

          It’s abundantly obvious the parties are different. I’m snarky because so many mental sloths exist. Be bothered to think and I’ll be less snarky. Specific, non-hyperbolic factual criticisms are not what I take issue with.

          If you say the parties are the same you’re either revealing how grossly ignorant you are, or what a liar you are. No grey area there really.

            The VOTERS of each party are different. The actual leaders of each party, the actual people running the party apparatus? There’s very little difference between the parties in terms of actual leadership.

              One party sometimes pretends to help, the other viciously kills all in its path and is proud of it. Yep, basically the same. Sometimes I cannot tell Bernie Sanders from Trump. Same person.

            If the parties are different, then WHY DO THE DEMOCRATS KEEP ON HELPING HIM PASS LEGISLATION WHEN THEY HAVE THE CHANCE TO HAVE SOME REPUBLICANS ON THEIR SIDE TO DERAIL IT?

                You’re right, they’re not the same.
                Red MAGA is evil, Blue MAGA too but they are hypocrites about it.
                So worse

                If they were different, then I wouldn’t even need to say it is what you meant.

                Edit for clarification: Do not judge them by their name, judge them by what legislation they help pass when they have the opportunity to do otherwise. They are the same.

            Just look at how they voted in tabling to be able to vote on if Trump’s articles of impeachment. Way too many democrats voted yes to not vote on it. It’s as if most of them don’t want to look at the fascism happening, and stick their heads in the sand. In my blue state only one voted to hear the articles of impeachment. Fuck.

              They are actively supporting it, because they directly benefit from it, just like the other party. The whole thing is a farce, and people like OP are unable to see it.

              Either that, or they are state agents, attempting to stifle true conversation and maintain the status quo.
