Isn't that exactly what they're doing?

Alright, so let's go with marches.

There have been some huge matches within the last 6 months with hundreds of thousands of people joining in. How much news coverage did that get?

Dude I'm not the one who brought up the both sides are the same meme.... .

Pretty sure all the newspapers and media at the time were talking about how the civil rights activists were horrible people

MLK was considered a terrorist for a while.

You also had the black Panthers arming and educating full communities to fight back.

During the same recovery we were handing out millions like candy to the richest amongst us?

Why bail out airlines and giant conglomerates instead of the American people?

I agree we need ranked choice voting and better candidates. I didn't say people should not vote either. If that's your argument against me, point out where I said people shouldn't vote.

You don't get change unless you call out the issues. If every time someone says "hey this guy isn't the best guy we could have," or "hey, this isn't the best system we could have," the response of "well it's always been this way" does nothing but keep excusing the massive disparities and injustices that are continuing to grow at this point.

I'm sorry you guys can't imagine a better world where people have better choices for candidates at the very least, and at the most a world where the system we generally live by is structurally changed.

The bar gets lower every election cycle. If the best we can keep doing is "hey I'm not that guy", then everything is going to just get shittier because that's a pretty low bar to scale.

Lol so reading comprehension is the issue apparently

Nowhere did I say they were the same I pointed out specific things they do that are equivalent

That's like me saying you're a human and have two arms and two legs and you being like oh my God hitler has two arms and legs too you're calling me hitler

Go back to school, read some books, read some history, and try to have an original thought in your head one day

Would be cool if Biden gave Ukraine all the money he's giving Israel.

My God you guys have either the worst comprehension possible or you're just being disingenuously annoying.

Criticizing Democrats for doing undemocratic things is not the same as saying Republicans are better, and it's not the same as supporting trump.

Both parties are fully bought and paid for by corporate interests and massive lobbies, especially one specific lobby from another country that is carrying out a genocide right now.

Pointing this out does not mean that you think trump is great. It means you can read the writing on the wall and that things need to change in a big way.

Lol I'm not even close to Russian I just don't like genocide and I don't like the fact that most people in the states can't generally afford to live properly. But sure because I point out that the Democrats, who I've voted for every single time since I've been able to vote, are also fucking up, that means I support Russia and trump. That makes a lot of sense.

Again, you guys need to figure out your reading comprehension
