      Both sides are not the same. However, both sides are terrible. One just more so than the other.

        Exactly. One side openly embraces fascism, while the other side actively fights progressive voices. If there’s one thing I hate about voting Democrat, it’s that every time progressives try to actually get power, and try to do something positive, for real people, the Establishment members of the party just drown them out with more money.

          Centrist democrats love to guilt and shame progressives any time progressives try to leverage their support in order to get anything they want.

          Even if it’s just the slightest shift or adjustment, the center left seems to always go right to “oh so you’d rather the Republicans win if you can’t get your way? This is bigger than you. You need to put your selfish wants aside and just support the things we want. Maybe after we get all the things we want and have all the power, maybe then we can consider some of your priorities, but until then, we’re entitled to all your votes and support simply by virtue of being slightly less opposed to you than the conservatives”.

        Would be cool if the worst of those two consistently lost, so they would have to change things around.

      No they’re saying that the two party system ensures that you guys can never change anything.

      The minimum wage has been seven bucks since 2008.

      That seems pretty ‘both sides are the same’ to me.
