I would love to get away from our current 2 party system...
But until then please we have to stop electing the tyrant side.
As Luthen told it has to get bad before changes will occure
apathetic people are the most stable supporter group of any evil side
Which one do I press to stop Palestinian kids from getting murked?
This isn't a choice that really has any bearing on that, unfortunately.
Your comment is exactly what the comic is about.
My point exactly.
If the results are the same, why participate in the charade of a system? So you can feel good about yourself? So you can go back to brunch and pretend that Obama didn't found ICE or Biden didn't actually ramp up the family detention centers instead of shutting them down completely?
Ou êtes-vous même américain à la base?
There are actually three sides and only two of them are bad.
Yes, both parties suck, and you are allowed to dislike both, but they don't suck equally and not (completely) in the same way and you are obliged to decide for yourself which party sucks harder, which you dislike more, and most importantly - which are you the most scared of getting into power.
Just because you don't want to be neither leftist nor rightist doesn't mean you need to aim for the dead center. That's as dogmatic as aiming for one of the extremes, and in fact dumber because it's not even motivated by any ideology.
The DNC is rotten but it's just a container. We pour out the rotten contents, refill it with new contents that hopefully don't rot as fast.
(I say this to dissatisfied right-wingers too, ya'll should also, there are plenty of conservatives out there really unhappy with this entire situation, if nothing else we can get them to vote against the current party and split votes in the coming elections.)

The side that has nazis also has Donald Trump.
All of this... it could have been stopped. We don't have to love (or even like) the Democrats, but it was such an important election, and everybody was screaming to vote against fascism. Well, a lot of people couldn't be bothered, and it's here now. Hope our country survives this administration...
It's in part because Biden ran on opposing fascism, got elected, and then did nothing to oppose fascism. He sold himself as a dragonslayer, but once he got in, he didn't want to upset the pro-dragon crowd.
So, yeah, when his protege ran the exact same campaign, it didn't instill a lot of confidence.

Go vote, but it’s worth remembering that for the most part, the other party only does milquetoast critiques of the Nazis at best.
Which is why I, not an American but way too invested in American politics because I'm terminally online (and once upon a time actually wanted to move to the US - not anymore), always said that the right answer is to vote for the shitty blue presidential candidate, but give the milquetoast dems hell in any and all primaries.
I so fucking hope that Mamdani getting elected and actually changing things for the better in NYC changes something in democratic voters' minds to the point that the party actually has to account for it.

i feel like i’m gonna be reposting this image for eternity
Correct, but liberals in reality have far less critique of online leftists and progressives because they're too tuned-out and too busy scrolling entertainment and celebrity birthday announcements.
