    How dare you say they’re equally bad.

    One party wants oppression, genocide, and economic ruin.

    The other party merely wants to preserve FPTP so you’re “forced” to vote for one of them.

      The fact that you can both side this one is very significant, because many young people feel absolutely lost in this cultural vacuum. I can see how bad trump’s side is of course, but the absolute lack of representation is staggering. I feel like this too. Truth is that I am, politically, a person without a home. I proposed myself to learn something new everyday, to be new everyday. New things, i use them. I have have been looking for a home too. Don’t underestimate this lack of representation. It’s a modern tragedy that nobody cares to represent.

      I grew up in a world where being left, right and centrist meant things, i have seen this eroding in real time. You’re on your own on this too. You all are…

      As a non-American, it’s simple to see how the Democratic party at the national level puts on a show of resistance against the Republicans but is largely and intentionally ineffective against any legislation that benefits their shared corporate masters. Of course, people will point out individual politicians who actually do their jobs, but that’s the entire point: to do enough to look like they’re trying without doing enough to actually make a difference.

      Controlled opposition. The US political system is a farce.

        And the neo-libs brow beat anyone who doesn’t agree with their ways or points out their blatant hypocrisy by saying “Do you want X to win?!” They argue in just as much bad faith as the MAGA.

      Both parties want oppression, genocide and economic ruin.

      The different is that one openly wants it everywere - abroad and at home - whilst the other one wants it abroad whilst voicing discomfort (but doing little else) about having it at home.
