here's an example for you to drive home why sentiment like this is dumb and creates false equivalencies. when I was 14, I worked at a grocery store. there were two managers that I would get scheduled with. they both sucked and were awful human beings. however, one was a known child predator. which one do you think I'd rather get scheduled with?
Honestly, I read this thread and can't comprehend how a civilization as advanced as the United States of America thinks that defending a binary choice of democracy is a good thing to do... It's impossible to represent a country with a few million people like that, imagine ~300M. Anyway, keep going at each other's throats for your party color... smh.
Neither party will ever willingly give up the two party system, as they both benefit from it. At some point Americans need to start backing third parties or everything will just continue to go in circles indefinitely.
Americans think their favorite political sports team cares about them like the stripper actually loved them. No, you just gave them what they wanted and as soon as you're out of sight, they'll forget you and keep doing their job.
For strippers it's doing a workout for a living and being proud of their bodies. For politicians it's gaslighting the public into thinking they're the good guys as they socially murder at home and sweep up blood abroad.
Dear wherever you're from: there's a 99% chance you live in a token democracy and you're in denial about it.
The problem of the US is, it is an neo-liberal feudalism with the right to vote between right wing and far right wing to be able to label it as democracy which it never really was. You have the choice to get fucked with or without lubrication, currently the last one.
That's what happens when lobbies can just buy your politicians
Not about that though, is it?
In America, it matters which people are for the party, not which party supports people.
Finally someone who speaks the truth, however humans are a lost case, you can't un-slave mentality without changing the people.
Respectfully disagree. They care at least as much about us as a cattle rancher cares about their cows, which is quite a lot. The end result is still grisly, though.
Edit: To be clear, I'm not "both sides." One is worse than the other. Also, not every Democrat is an AOC. Schumers exist and are absolutely backing billionaires.
Edit edit: forgot to mention Sinema, Manchin, and Fetterman. Everybody get involved in the primaries.
Personally I'd prefer if 'memes', if you can call it that, like this one were kept to politics-centered communities.
In any case, I think the message is true for most if not all countries on the planet. No politician from any major party is a good person, and they most definitely don't care about you enough to do anything for you. You will probably have a hard time finding any politician that isn't a liar, or worse, but the major parties are the worst of the worst.
True for any goverment. I am fucking tired.
In fact some of them hate you and consider you to be a parasite no matter what you do.
This is for trutru
