I think getting semantic here is a trap, it's still serving the purpose of casting doubt on the system. Great most days, but when an election is looming this is wrecker shit.

Think the usual 'Democrats are terrible too' schtick doesn't actually work well on Lemmy broadly but now we're going to see things like this where people will start picking apart the words of the text and claiming it isn't what it is.

We're all, mostly, at least a good decent number of us, adults who have seen all this shit before. Yes they said liberals, liberals are centerist poo-poo-ers who want their status quo and don't want to be associated with bad press but not much else, fuck em. But also, Capitalism isn't going to be fixed any time soon, in the meantime, however, one party plays host to at least some number of people trying to actually improve the lives of their constituency and for fucks sake you can't tell me they're just as bad as the partyconsisting exclusively of people openly looting and pillaging the entirety of the nation for personal gain and bald faced cruelty.

Just downvote OP and keep an eye out for people trying to bait.

Again, OP's post says nothing about what the "correct" answer is.

They do not even specify something along the lines of voting for the lesser of two evils. It's a nothing-burger but insulting idiots that act like idiots, and ya'll read what ever the hell you want into it... Sad.

The only people who deserve downvotes are those reading things that are not written there.
