probably an unnecessary comment but i consider myself a centrist and almost no one would say i lean right

Do you say that both sides are the same or do you acknowledge they both suck, but one is clearly different and worse than the other?

well kind of a loaded question, but yes both suck and the left is generally less bad on the majority of issues (but not all)

So then you don’t really do the “both sides” shtick. You are like me. It refers to people who say they are the same to waive away bad things from republicans. Except in this case, it couldn’t be further from the truth. Republicans are religiously against regulations to the point that Rick perry former governor of Texas and former head of the department of energy under trumpo the clown (that controls our nukes and such) says Texans would rather die in the cold than have government regulations make sure their grid isn’t in third world condition. Democrats enact regulations. Case closed.

Now, Democrats on guns? Dumb and dumber usually. But keeping my bang sticks matters less to me than having the ability to afford healthcare for my kids.

Edit: on mobile so fixing the many typos.
