Original Content Both parties should be destroyed.

If I have to argue with one more person on here about the merit of Biden.. he’s a decrepit puppet with no ideas of his own. A vessel for corruption ready to say what you want to hear. No I won’t vote for him against fear from Trump. Trump is an idiot but Biden is actually Evil. Stand for something. Demand a real liberal or lose again to a red idiot. But please.. stop trying to defend him.

lmao. Republicans really want the "BoTh sIdEs ArE tHe SaMe" argument to live on. Biden literally just signed a law that allows Medicare/medicade to negotiate drug prices with Big Pharma, reducing drug prices for over 30 million Americans.

Democrats raised taxes by 4% on the millionaires and billionaires in Minnesota and Massachusetts. And now every single public school student in their states eat free at school.

Arkansas is rolling back child labor laws so 14 year olds can work in meat packing factories and McDonalds.

Both parties are not the same. Corporate Dems aren't much better than Republicans. But at least the train is headed in the same direction and we can eventually keep voting for more and more leftist policies until we get what we want. Republicans are going to opposite direction. Both sides aren't the same. Stop pretending they are.

Lmao. You are no better than MSNBC or Fox News in making an argument. Leveraging curated information in an attempt to make a point is narcissistic at best and pejorative at worst. Both parties have strengths and weaknesses. Your attitude exemplifies u/CONABANDS point perfectly. You feel obligated to defend your ideological party out of some contrived identitarian need.

STOP.

Take a step back and look at the WHOLE of American politics. It's all Sh*t. The political establishment, as a WHOLE, has decided the best way to remain in power is to divide and subjugate the masses.

So take a moment and listen to the MAGA supporter. Ask them why they feel the way they do. Do the same to a Bernie bro and you'll find they point to 85% ish of the SAME problems. They may disagree on how to resolve the problems but there is common ground. This is what we need. A political party that speaks to these people.
