I do, on the grounds that they both care jack shit about people, aren't accountable to people and don't represent people's interest. They are two sports teams, both playing the same game of pretending people have a choice, even when the choice is between bad and worse.

Once you start to squint, it becomes incredibly obvious that one really is worse than bad. This is still a nuance that is only there to force people to vote lesser evil instead of solutions.

Are they the "same" same? No. Indistinguishably same? No. Still, they're two, say, basketball teams in a system that brainwashed people to vote for the best basketball team to determine who's gonna be rowing the country back to normalcy. How voting for the best rowers is somehow just not an option never ceases to fascinate me, but, apparently, they're bad at basketball, and another one is even worse, so what do I know?

I agree with all of this. Two groups can be bad at the same time, even if they don't like each other, and even if one of them is worse.
