It’s not like any candidate was actually good but they did pick the worst one.

This is just American voters in general every single election. Vote red. Vote blue. Doesn't matter. It just keeps getting worse.

They're both right-wing parties that don't give a fuck about the working class lol; they're on the same side.

And the supposedly "lesser evil" one is currently openly funding and supporting a genocide (even going as far as to bypass congress to do so) and is openly a zionazi.

There is no representation of the other (leftist) side in the US, and there will never be until the system itself, that's specifically designed to prevent that and serve Capital instead, is overthrown.

It's all one side. I know fans of each party like to twist themselves in knots to find daylight between them but outside of the culture war nonsense & which brand of idpol they subscribe to, the distance between them has only gotten smaller with every passing election in my lifetime.

The supposed solution to trump and the gop (who was labeled a dangerous madman that would get us into ww3) was to elect Biden and the Democrats

What has happened since?

  • Provoke Russia
  • Provoke China
  • Provoke Iran
  • Arm Nazis in Ukraine
  • Aid "Israel" in their genocide

All while their own citizens continue to struggle with basics like food & shelter.

Will republicans be happy to continue all of these? 100%. But let's not pretend there's some grand meaningful difference between them unless your most important issues fall within the category of the culture war in which case you must be doing pretty well.

If you actually compared the policy positions of both parties around foreign policy, taxation, healthcare, education, gun control.... the list goes on -- you would know that this argument is disingenuous at best.

Arm Nazis in Ukraine

The Russian special forces was called Wagner after Hitler's favorite musician.

The Z emblem of Russian forces is part of a Russian swastika motif that their military wears.

Russia used Hitler named units and swastika patches on their uniforms while calling the defenders Nazis. That's crazy.

At least one of the parties isn't trying to wipe LGBT people off the map. What you call "culture war nonsense" is a very real threat to those affected by the hundreds upon hundreds of legislation being proposed and passed every year

We could vote for things to actually get better, but mostly throw our votes away on worse instead.

What a hyperbole. This two party thing has only been going on for 150 years. If Biden wins next time everything is going to be fixed trust.
