George Carlin put this idea to rest a very long time ago. If you truly believe that Democrats are somehow fundamentally different from Republicans you have lost the plot.
Dems have utterly failed in doing anything other than fighting progressives the Dem party is truly insane in that they are obstructing the very thing that would save us all which is more Dems everywhere. Time for the old guard to step down or turn their attention to combating the GOP. Like it’s utterly fucking stupid. And fuck the fuck out of Israel get the fuck out of the Dem party and American politics.
The two party system is a lie. Actually there are factions within and without each party. If your analysis stops at D and R, you cannot possibly describe American politics accurately.
In other words, your oversimplification is not useful for comprehension of the situations at hand. But it is also true that corporate lackeys exist everywhere.
It’s not an oversimplification to say both sides are bought and paid for by billionaires and constantly support the wealthy. The working class have been getting fucked by both parties ever since Ronald Reagan left us with “trickle-down” economics.
I’m debating whether I want to engage with you on this. I can’t tell if this is ragebait or if you genuinely arrived at this conclusion.
Your comment appears to conflate two separate ideas, and I think there’s a contradiction in your reasoning. That makes me question whether you actually understood the point being made.
Especially if this is the conclusion you drew from the clip in my previous comment, which, to be fair, I don’t even know if you watched.
Did you actually watch the clip, or are you responding only to my summary?

This is something I disagree with Carlin on.
Dems have utterly failed in doing anything other than fighting progressives the Dem party is truly insane in that they are obstructing the very thing that would save us all which is more Dems everywhere. Time for the old guard to step down or turn their attention to combating the GOP. Like it’s utterly fucking stupid. And fuck the fuck out of Israel get the fuck out of the Dem party and American politics.
And yet time and time again, things have gotten demonstrably worse while Republicans have control far more often and severely than when Democrats do.
This is a true statement.
You can disagree if you want but he is right.
Carlin would have legit killed himself if he was still alive for this. He’d have voted for Kamala too, because he wasn’t a fuckin idiot.
