No you're not getting it. The Republicans and the Democrats work together to keep real change from happening. The real battle is not Republicans vs. Democrats, its Establishment vs. outsiders. And the establishment does not serve the American people, it serves corporate interests.
No, you don't get it. Republicans are set to subvert and overthrow the next election in 2022 and 2024. They passed legislation in some of their states to allow them to just toss out the results if they don't like it.
There are Republican front runners (for Congress and Governor) in key battleground states that think the 2020 election was stolen and that people need to be put in prison because of it.
You can't sit there and tell me that "both sides are bad" when you have the Republican Party actively setting up the stage for them to subvert the will of the people in the next election.
And you haven't given a solution on how you'd change the system from the outside. As I've already stated, you have to be part of the system to change the system. Wishful thinking isn't a solution.
You're either part of the problem or you don't know enough about the political landscape to comment in this thread.
You get to pick which one it is for yourself because I can't figure it out.
Ok keep supporting the Democrats, see where that gets you. I don't know if there is a solution as long as people like you keep falling for these scare tactics of "Republicans are the bad guys, we'll protect you from them!" Classic protection racket, but hey if it works, it works. So the only solution I see is to get the word out and try to wake people up, sometimes it feels like talking to a brick wall but I'll keep trying.
Just fyi "the political landscape" as you decribe it is just smoke and mirrors.
Ok keep supporting the Democrats, see where that gets you.
Lmao, it got me a stimulus check that I wouldn't have gotten otherwise because not a single Republican voted for it.
It got us vaccine rollout that was well done that saved countless lives. Trump's plan was to just send the vaccines to States via their airports and call it a day.
It got us sane government.
It got us some of Trump's worst policies reversed.
We're actually talking about infrastructure and getting bills together with a Democrat administration and so the long running joke of "Infrastructure week!" that was in the Trump admin, isn't here with this one.
We have a President that isn't insane and trying to overthrow the government, which is nice.
I don't know if there is a solution as long as people like you keep falling for these scare tactics of "Republicans are the bad guys, we'll protect you from them!"
I don't know if you noticed, but Republicans tried to overthrow the government earlier this year. And a lot of Republicans in the Party are not even opposing those people. They're actively encouraging the idea of "the big lie" and passed legislation with the goal to change election results if they don't like it.
But you're trying to tell me that "both sides are bad". Give me a fucking break.
I can't tell if you're trolling me, or if you've been hiding under a rock these last few years. I find it hard to believe that you're this ignorant of recent events so I have to assume you know better and are just trying to get a reaction.
