    80% of Democrat voters: “yeah I know they’re owned by corporate interests and won’t actually make good on any of their promises, but if I don’t vote for them the Republicans will get in”

    80% of Republican voters: “yeah I know the GOP is mostly about making themselves rich, but I hate Democrats more than I like the Republican Party”

    Votescolds: don’t you dare think of trying to upset this perfect beautiful balance that will play out every election for the next thousand years. In fact if you even suggest it you’re probably a Russian psyop

      That’s just false though since Biden did do a lot of shit that he promised he would.

      They both suck, but it’s not even close to the same.

      Why lie?

        fits the narrative that all politicians are bad and that no one should vote, even if it’s the most powerful force of change that ordinary people have at their disposal

      Except there are chunks of Democrats whonare not corporate stooges who might eventually make things better.

      Literally all of the Republicans are MAGA Nazis.
