    The government keeps fucking everyone but the democrats blame the republicans for it, and the republicans the democrats for it, not realizing they are talking about the exact same group of people.

    I’m shocked either party can maintain the illusion at this point but thats just my perspective.

      If you don’t see a difference between the current political parties, that seems like a you problem.

        That’s a strawman argument. Pointing out that one of them is worse than the other ignores the real problem - the system is broken.

          And comparing the two parties like they are both the same within this broken system is counterproductive. One party is openly planning an authoritarian coup, and the other is far too beholden to the capitalist class. Voting third party or abstaining (same thing) is a vote to end whatever shreds of democracy we still have.

          Vote for the lesser evil and make a scene about whatever you don’t like but don’t pretend the two parties are the same. It kills morale and it’s bullshit to boot.
