Meh, only one wants to take away my rights and the other one wants to give me free healthcare and cancel student debt. Not saying that the one that wants to protect my rights doesn't have problems, but the 2 parties sure as shit are not the same.

    If the Dems wanted those things they would have done those things when they had control

    They had it during Obama, and they have the presidency now. If they’ll never have enough power to actually do what they always promise, why should we support them anymore? Why should we focus on electoral politics when we can do a lot more good doing mutual aid and staging militant protests on the ground?

    Incredible how that's not only not what OP of this thread but also somehow totally naïvely buys into Democrat rhetoric about things they're totally going to do, for sure.

    They have done these things.

    Have you seen any vote results, to see which party votes for what? I thought not.

    Last I checked, dems voted to fund the police, ICE, Northrop Grumman, Boeing, and Raytheon; so I don't owe them shit as far as recognition goes beyond what it takes me to empty my bladder. Why'm I going to support people who have no interest in rectifying this country's manifold injustices? Or are you just gonna keep pissing on my leg and telling me it's raining?

    More like “runs on obviously popular policy proposals and never carries through because they didn’t care in the first place.” Just like how republicans run on ending wars and bringing down gas prices and end up doing the opposite.
