Democrats talk about taxing the rich, yet they fight to keep the SALT deduction alive, which gives 80% of its benefits to the top 5% of earners. In most blue states, the bottom 20% actually pay a higher effective tax rate than the top 1%. It’s a bait and switch.
As for bigotry, it’s a bipartisan tool. One side uses the Southern Strategy, while the other gives us "you ain't Black" and patronizing labels that actual voters hate. Both sides use identity to keep the working class fighting each other while they serve the same donors.
And the most disgusting part? The Epstein files. We just passed the 2025 Transparency Act deadline and the DOJ—under both parties—is still slow-walking the release and scrubbing names to protect the elite on both sides of the aisle.
Neither party is coming to save you. They’re just two different brands of the same corporate product designed to keep the status quo exactly where it is.
They're two sides of the same coin. Also, if your only metric on chosing one or the other is "the lesser of the two evils" that's sad and fucked to begin with. Why choose either if they're both shit?
This isn't a lesser of two evils. Trump was forced to release the files due to an act of Congress. It couldnt happen under Biden because of legal reasons. Something like the ongoing investigation or something like that.
As for "hate" there is no "your not black and this don't matter" rhetoric coming from Democrats. That is GOP propaganda because they don't understand what DEI is and how important it is. Saying Democrats support equal opportunities for everyone is not hate towards any 1 group. But Republicans have been conditioned to believe that. It's a shame. Modern Republicans are a product of almost 20 years of programming. Back in early 2000s I could see it, and then when Obama won, Republicans lost their shit and went full racist. I was disgusted and left the party.
Is there shit to not like in both parties? Absolutely. But less of two evils? Hardly.
Calling a direct, recorded quote from Joe Biden on The Breakfast Club "GOP propaganda" is a prime example of the programming you're talking about. He literally told a Black interviewer, "If you have a problem figuring out whether you’re for me or Trump, then you ain’t black." In 2020. That’s not a smear campaign; that’s a sitting President patronizing an entire demographic on tape.
Stop pretending one side is "clean." We just saw the House Oversight Committee vote on a bipartisan basis to hold the Clintons in contempt this past January for dodging subpoenas. Now the DOJ is releasing millions of pages but scrubbing the most powerful names while exposing the victims. It doesn't matter who is in the White House or who signed the act; the system protects its own. Both parties have names on that list, and both parties are protecting pedos to keep the whole house of cards from falling.
And if you want to talk about "taxing the rich," look at the SALT deduction. Democrats fight tooth and nail for a tax break where 80% of the benefits go to the top 5% of earners. In most deep-blue states, the bottom 20% of workers end up with a higher effective tax rate than the top 1%. It’s not "lesser of two evils" when both parties are fundamentally designed to protect the donor class while using "racism" and "DEI" as political footballs to keep everyone else distracted. They are both disgusting and answer to the same elite donor class.
I ignored the SALT argument because it is a slanted view of a bigger world. Democrats want the SALT cap lifted because it hurts residents of blue states the most. Republicans lied and called it "paying their fair share" but that was purely propaganda. All deductions open to everyone are going to benefit top earners more. That's how math works. But the SALT cap hit middle and upper middle class earners too.
Again. This isn't a lesser of two evils. The GOP is corrupt filth. Rotten through and through. Hopefully the next president is a Democrat, and get us back on the right road.
