    “Both sides are the same” Is the most apathetic, uninformed, and insidious meme out there.

      One side literally just gave everyone’s tax info to an oligarch, dismantled foreign aid that keep starving people fed and support democracy worldwide, scrapped several government agencies keeping oligarchs under control, actively destroys information on the greatest threat to the human race. And probably most relevant for this specific community: Has spent decades undermining unions every way they possibly could.

      The other side wasn’t interesting enough to vote for.

      Yeah, totally the same. One would almost say the “both sides” meme purely benefits one of the sides…

      I’ve personally chosen just to mock and laugh for 4 years, to stave off depression for the roughly 1/3rd of Americans who aren’t gullible idiots or fucking evil.

        Mocking people sure helped during the election, why stop now right?

        This is what loser-talk looks like. Stop trying to lose and start actually talking to people. Or just don’t say anything I guess, better than being an ass.
