Just the phrase "both sides" on it's own can get this ridiculous charade going. Both sides are political parties in the US, both sides further America's geopolitical interests, both sides are largely financed by corporate donors who donate to both parties, both sides are economically right wing, both sides engage and amp up the post-political partisan spectacle.
