    Now similar voices are speaking, reminding everyone that both parties are the same in the worst possible moments to point that out. Not during the primaries, when the parties can be stirred into a direction…

    Thanks for making it so plain you have the memory of a goldfish and nothing interesting to say.

    We were saying it during the primary. Leftists been saying it every day for longer than I’ve been old enough to vote, and I voted the first time in a year that started with “1”. The fact that you don’t know that means you’re deliberately not paying attention except during the general when your billionaire-owned media programmers have programmed you to notice it and be offended by it.

    The rest of the time you ignore it just like you ignore the massive dichotomy between Democrats’ rhetoric and their voting records. Just like you ignore the massive similarities between policy passed by Democrats and that passed by Republicans. You’ve been so programmed to focus on the aesthetics and the narratives that you routinely vote for the people making your life worse. Doesn’t that bother you at all?

      As a Honduran who’s watched you idiots elect trump two times, actively making the world a worse place for EVERYONE, I quickly lose interest when people try to argue that Obama and the Clintons and the rest of the dems are or were just as bad. They carried out undeniable evils in the world, but the depth of the corruption and evil that has been unleashed upon the entire world purely out of the foolishness, borderline evilness, of Americans getting Trump into power TWICE… It’s impossible to ignore.

      Trump has helped shatter this better image that Democrats had before all this, and it would be ridiculous not to acknowledge their role and positions, and I’m fine with doing so… At ANY OTHER POINT IN TIME BEFORE THE IMPORTANT ELECTIONS. Im not arguing in defense of the Democrats, I’m arguing in defense of strategic timing, and will continue to do so until you guys leave the rest of us no choice but to view you all as part of the enemy. Fix your shit as a country or you might force someone out there to do it for you the hard way.

        And what, in your mind, Is the unique and horrible evil that Trump has perpetrated that Biden, Obama, and Clinton didn’t?

          I’m not about to start listing the last decade of our lives to you just because you have some hill to die on.

          Listen i don’t give a fuck if you need to kiss newsom’s cum-covered face to do it, just get trump and his one percenters the fuck out of office before other countries start feeling the need to do it themselves. Fix your fuckups.

            So that’s a solid “no” on being able to provide examples of Trump’s evil that are unique and not also done by Democrats?

            Your entire political outlook is based on vibes you got from billionaire owned media?

            That’s about what I expected.

              The same billionaires who worship trump got me to hate him with their corporate powers, huh? I thought you guys were real communists who did real thinking, not just people who bend over for fascism and take it without lube whenever trump tells you to take it.

              Whats the great plan here? To take it harder in the ass from the billionaire class while inhaling huge amounts of hopoum that the “revolution” will begin any day now? But until then we keep helping trump win? Go keep him in power like the useful lapdogs you are.

                Your inability to understand a simply stated premise doesn’t make the premise wrong.

                Your insipid screed only proves that you’re incapable of imagining any other exercise of power other than voting, and that you’re incapable of imagining the exercise of that power in any way you haven’t been given permission to use it by the people who don’t want you to use it to stop them.

                Maybe don’t go back to brunch in between elections and start to think of people outside the US as human and you’ll figure out what we mean.
