You know who posts boTh sIdEs memes? Republicans trying to distract you from the shit they are doing.
"Everyone to my left is all the way to my right."
The Republican one should also say no with Nazi flags, crucifix, and a gun
It's sad to see this up voted so much right under an article about democrats trying to provide free community college.
I feel bad for posting this now because I wasn’t trying to make false equivalencies. Unequivocally, I find that someone identifying as a Democrat politician is more likely to be progressive and humanitarian than one identifying as a Republican politician.
I am not sure the demeanor of the Democratic Party in general has anything to do with intrinsic ideology because many party members used to be against gay marriage in the 90s. It’s a good thing that one party (Democrats) is open to changing itself according to public will, which is what you’d want in a representative democracy.
What this means to me is that you shouldn’t take party demeanors for granted, and keep pushing for the change you want.
Edit: so yeah, if you don’t want four years of conservatives breaking all progressive pillars of society, go out and fucking vote!!
Meanwhile in reality:
I take it back, that poor unionist on the right is about to receive a maximum power Biden Blast
You are forgetting when he stopped the train unions.
And then got them the sick days they were looking for after all of it. Listen, I don't agree with strike busting, but going back after to get the workers what they need is laudable. His brain is rotted by neoliberalism, but he is trying.
I have no idea what tone I'm trying to convey here, and I find that funny.
You're forgetting that Republicans have NEVER supported unions and would jail every pro union worker if they could. Biden being anti union is suddenly the same as every Republican ever being anti union?
we didn’t get everything ever so it’s bad!!!!
Give me a fucking break
Apathy gets nothing done
Right, we need to be organizing, protesting, and working to destroy the current power structure.
true, but both sides do need to be criticizeable, not just the worse one.
Criticizing is great, putting it like OP with "they're the same, democrats just put on a hat" is dishonest and reductionist. This kind of thing actively causes harm and plays into the hands of the party that's objectively worse for anyone that's not rich.
US citizens need to destroy the first past the post voting system. It's fucked and undemocratic and it needs to be replaced.
Republicans: how about we make it worse.
This is fucking dumb as hell, rainbow capitalism is the fucking tip not the whole goddamn iceberg.
This is just another braindead “both sides” meme
Meanwhile:
This isn’t even false equivalency, it’s just blatantly false.
I only see this argument made by conservatives. It is a deliberate attempt to drive a racist and LGBT-phobic wedge between the white working class and the Democratic Party. I have never seen a progressive person demand less support for the rights of minorities.
I also favor raising the minimum wage, making universities free to attend, and having universal healthcare - but LGBT rights aren’t the reason we don’t have those things. The GOP is the reason we don’t have those things, and it’s not like if the Dems said “Fuck it, arrest and kill the gays” that the GOP would suddenly support workers’ rights.
If you want to help the poor, vote out the party that says shit like this.
Conservatives, and useful idiots.
The only people I see claiming both sides are the same are people who have interest in either democrats failing as a party, or the whole country failing and collapsing in general.
Mhm of course! Third year into the Democrat administration and wealth inequality in the US keep reaching new staggering heights.
Hmmm ... and which party is running the House of Representatives that had the record for getting less done than any other in the history of the country?
Thanks Reagan
And all the wealth inequality that happened during Trump?
