This is stupid. They’re both capitalist parties, but Republicans are clearly the greater evil.

If you live in the USA and can’t feel the difference between republican and democrat leadership you are in a very privileged place. Show some empathy.

Looks exactly like the kind of messaging that republicans have kept on quietly pushing towards potential left-leaning voters to keep them unengaged and aloof, for years and years.

A large serving of divide and conquer propaganda, plus making voting more difficult wherever they can, plus extreme flagrant gerrymandering. Cripple and destroy government programs whenever in power, keep on blaming "both sides" for it, election after election.

"Look how stupid they are! They keep on falling for it, we keep on serving it!"

This is so dumb.

"No reason to vote they are all the same."

Yeah that's how you erode democracy, by telling people it's pointless to vote. On the other hand especially the American democracy has issues, as their two part system doesn't allow for fine tuning of opinions and invites polarization. I hope at some point in future you guys become a real multi party democracy.

These troll posts are so lazy and unimaginative.

I hope you're earning many rubles as compensation.
