    One side is worse, but both sides ARE bad.

    If democrats really wanted to improve our lives, they wouldn’t have quashed Bernie in 2016 or 2020. What they did this year with Kamala was equivalent.

    She was still a better choice in every possible aspect over Trump. It wasn’t enough.

      I agree. Democrats are freshly revealed to be hot garbage, but they’re still lightyears ahead of republicans and I find it disgusting to make any remark that alludes to them being the same

        Lol, if by “freshly” you mean “for at least almost a decade if not further back”

        I find it disgusting to make any remark that alludes to them being the same

        It sucks, but they literally both do what the guy is accusing them of, so they’re actually the same here. Doesn’t mean they’re perfectly identical in all other ways, but this is and has been a major red flag for yeeeeeaaarssss BECAUSE it’s a spot where they’re the same

          I’m just tired of the false equivalency that landed us in fascism. But enjoy feeling smug about how you knew this is exactly how Democrats would run this campaign 10+ years ago.

            Valid criticism of the Dems isn’t false equivalency, it’s so fucking annoying to hear people keep acting like it is

            enjoy feeling smug about how you knew this is exactly how Democrats would run this campaign 10+ years ago.

            Didn’t claim anything close to that, merely pointed out that acting like this election suddenly revealed something new only proves youre unaware of previous ones

              And I’m annoyed that we continue to see “both parties” without strong fucking qualifiers.

              acting like this election suddenly revealed something new

              You have no idea what I meant and you obviously care more about making something up than knowing. I meant that we saw democrats reach a new level of ineptitude with this election cycle. If you cannot see or accept that is true, then I’m right. You’re smug and not interested in actually conversing with me or understanding what democrats do/don’t do correctly.

                That’s not what happened here, though?

                You have no idea what I meant and you obviously care more about making something up than knowing

                I do know what you meant, because English words have meaning

                I meant that we saw democrats reach a new level of ineptitude with this election cycle.

                No, we didn’t, we just saw them fail harder while doing all the same shit they always have, as I said

                You’re smug and not interested in actually conversing with me or understanding what democrats do/don’t do correctly.

                Keep strawmanning me and ignoring everything I say, I’m sure eventually you’ll make a valid point with that technique!

                  Not interested in your point of view since you’ve aggressively denied me an ounce of understanding

                    You making shit points =/= me not understanding you

                    Keep equating basic criticism of the Democrats to claiming repubs are identical to them, enjoy never learning and not winning next time either!
