“When someone says both sides, its obvious they have not been watching the actions of the political parties. Lets look how they vote.” - /u/armored_cat
Really annoys me when I read apathetic people saying that Dems and Reps are the same. Yes, there’s a lot of crony corpos in the Dems side but they are in no way even close to the same. There’s a lot of stuff the Dems have done that I’m not a fan of, but are still not even close to being the same as Reps.
This is a great comment that outlines the stark differences on voting records that I archived so it wasn’t lost.
They are not the same, make sure you vote to keep the fascists out. Also vote in the primaries so we can get more progressive/populist representatives as candidates. Voting is not the only answer to salvage the future but it’s definitely a part of the answer.
Yeah, the US is now in this weird state where center right policies are accused of being communist.
There’s one singular social-democrat party in Poland and it’s being branded “hardcore left”, “communist” and even “bolshevik” so it’s not just US. Truth be told, Poland has always played a racoon role - stealing ideas, but just from the trash. We are dangerously close to the two party system, too.
Fuck me.
