It's the first part. The vast majority of Democrats are "moderate" and "corporate captured."
It's not a "both sides are equally bad in all respects." It's "both sides will not give us a change of law to enable a living wage be the standard." It's only speaking to that one aspect.
It might also be a complicated topic, but you don't solve a complicated topic by never starting on it.
Are democrats opposed to changing that, or just not prioritizing it because it can get complicated and there are a million other concerns?
Are those "concerns" bigger than the concern of Trump winning the general election? Make a choice. Raising the federal minimum wage in order to avoid losing to Trump sounds like a bargain to me.
Then spend some of that energy telling moderates to start compromising with leftists and progressives if they don't want to lose to fascists a second time.
Sadly, while we would value your support for stopping multiple genocides by voting against Trump, your numbers are far outweighed by that of moderates. I am sorry you can't comprehend very basic cause and effect and if that costs us our country, I guess you can rest well being so stupid you won't think you were part of the problem.
