    there is no effective difference between them.

    Then it shouldn’t be hard for you to justify why the Democrats would be doing all the shit that they’ve been railing against.

    After all, there’s no effective difference, right?

    RIGHT??

      i don’t understand your reply. the dems and reps do things for profit and marketing and control. nothing else.

        they are both capitalist parties. there is no effective difference between them.

        the dems and reps do things for profit and marketing and control. nothing else

        So then justify why the Democrats would be doing the shit that Republicans are doing. Clearly you know how the profit motive will make Democrats do shit like use ICE to snatch people off the street or murder them in cold blood.

        Or are you now trying to move the goalposts once someone actually points out how this facile argument falls apart when you put the slightest bit of thought into the statement? You can make an argument that they make similar choices because of the profit motive, but if you think there’s no effective difference, you should have no issue supporting your statement.

          i’m saying they both don’t mind what is happening and use each other as the blame when the parties in power shift. this has the result of two things: a) making a lot of people a lot of profit and b) moving the overton window ever to the right.

          i am saying the lack of actual actionable output and outcomes from the dems when they are in charge results in the reps doing more damage and it’s done that way on purpose. don’t act like dems didn’t support israel’s genocide when they were in power, they just kept silent about it.
