      A trait in common does not equal identity

      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.

        I get what you’re saying in the rest of your comment but I think you are wrong here. To say “fully” bought and paid for is incredibly misleading. On the vast majority of issues that favor corporate interests democrats vote in favor of working people at a high rate. It’s really not hard to check the voting on each issue. It’s the same 5% of Dems that repeatedly vote for corporate interests. While the other 95% get blamed for it. On the other hand nearly all Republicans vote in lock step with corporate interests. They are not even remotely comparable.

          I thinl you would really need to adress my short answer to your comment if you take this forum or it’s members serious in any way. This also means you’d need to do it if you take your own Impetus serious…

          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
