Versus in the capitalist US where you have two parties to choose from, both of which are owned by the same lobbyists and neither of which ever changes anything

Versus in the capitalist US where you have two parties to choose from, both of which are owned by the same lobbyists and neither of which ever changes anything meaningful.
You have the grotesquely evil option and the controlled opposition getting voted in on the platform of not being grotesquely evil. Neither of them gets anything useful done. Meanwhile what little choice is left is getting undermined by gerrymandering and voter suppression.
Yay capitalist democracy?
