“The two parties are the same, it doesn’t matter who you vote for”
- kneebonian 4y agoRemind me who was it that closed polling stations in areas with large Sanders support during the primaries again? And why was it that Bloomberg was running for only like 3 weeks right around super Tuesday and then folded after that? Maybe they are the same they just pretend ti act differently in front of the camera?
- mattwad 4y agoThat's internal politics, not even close to related to destroying public services from our federal government. I'm pissed about what they and the media did to Sanders but I wish that Republicans had done the same to Trump.
- kneebonian 4y ago> but I wish that Republicans had done the same to Trump. This sounds like a dangerous line of thinking. Like we can argue about Trump till the cows come home but I think it'd be a tough sell to say he wasn't who the Republicans wanted as their nominee. It sounds like you are saying you wish the political parties would do what they feel is best irregardless of the will of their constituints. That is no longer representative democracy but rather tyrrany.
- kennywinker 4y agoWinner in a broken system means the system is broken not that the winner was always going to win. Like any president who lost the popular vote, or trump who won the nomination because of longstanding apathy, not because the majority of anybody likes him.
- jmac01 4y agoThis is the polical equivalent of "the allies committed warcrimes in ww2 too". One "side" is a whole lot worse than the other hahaha
- wincy 4y agoI agree, and also very much doubt we are talking about the same side. Funny how that works.
- kennywinker 4y agoPlenty of people were on the side of fascism in ww2 as well. It’s not particularly funny at all.
- wincy 4y agoDefinitely, and those people were filled with righteous conviction that they were the good guys.
