If they did, the blue states would suddenly turn around and call those progressive ideas “far-right propaganda.” There will be no victory for the
poorless-than-rich in this country without a major revolution.Croquette@sh.itjust.works 11 months ago
Get out of here with your whataboutism.

Whataboutism? What about what? I’m just a realist who’s lived in this country long enough to know that red vs blue is all just a show for the common folk to keep them divided. If either side actually wanted change, they’d be willing to compromise. Instead, we get constant outrage bait and empty promises.
It’s cute that people still think there are “good guys” in U.S. politics, but it’s that kind of willful ignorance and false hope that keep the rich rich and the poor poor.

One side is clearly worst than the other on every metric possible. So it’s fucking rich to bring the democrats in the conversation for whatever reason on a hypothetical scenario.
So get out of here with your good guy rhetoric. One side is better than the other by a long shot, and you know it.
I would wager my left nut that you vote right wing in elections, because that’s the same bullshit that non-assumed right wing peon is spouting.
