    both parties ultimately stand for the same values

    This is an extremely privileged take. Yes, both parties support corporations and capitalism. However, one party also supports the eradication of people they don’t like. This is a very significant difference.

      Its also an extremely privileged take to presume that financial destitution can’t be just as crushing. We all face eradication, and trying to sideline economic issues for issues of human dignity will lose on both. It’s divide and conquer politics. We are either unified, or we’re not.

      As a narcissist (so, very not privileged), I find that the Democrats’ capitalist worldview enables systems that create fascism. While the Democrats don’t say out loud that they intend to kill minorities, their actions ultimately have that effect. Also, their support of the fossil fuel industry is gonna get everyone killed, brown people first.

        Who do the Democrats want to eradicate? Republicans are already very well-documented.

            Are they Americans? I’m sorry if it’s not the most sensitive take. But I vote for people that don’t DIRECTLY want others to die. Giving money is not as linear as they give weapons = they pull the trigger.

                It’s not insane to think taking care of our own house is a bigger priority than the rest of the world.

                  I’m with you. The billions in aid given to Israel to commit genocide should instead be spent domestically to improve the lives of Americans!
