> Thinking that your "team" is the good guys and the other are the bad guys is exactly why politicians get away with this. There is nuance in the world. This is really annoying to me /because/ I'm a liberal -- I sometimes /wish/ the more liberal in Congress would be more of a "team," but they're just /not/. And it /really/ pisses me off when people both sides the current political climate, because you have -- on Republicans' side -- an actual fascist uprising, multiple acts of terror, active dismantling of federal governmental agencies, rampant corruption /in the open/ ... while on the Democrats' side, they're corporatist and generally status-quo, which is not good, but it's /not/ the same. God, I /wish/ we could have a debate in this country about the benefits and drawbacks of different foreign policy initiatives, or tax policy, or whatever, but we /can't/ -- and I'm stuck with the lesser of two evils because you basically have one party that's actively trying to turn the US into a one-party state and another that isn't. I /wish/ we could say that "both parties are the same," because I'm pissed at both. I'm mad that Joe Biden is only pushing for $1400 in relief for /a year/ of Covid. I'm mad that the Democrats still aren't talking about getting rid of the camps at the border, that Obama did air strikes in the Middle East, that they haven't done anything about college debt, that they're so deep in pockets of business. But they are NOT the same as the Republicans. So stop saying they are.
