stroke much?

I guess you never make typos, then. Huh? /s

seriously, this isn't a "fair comparison" because it doesn't address any sort of nuance nor is it supposed to.

I'm sorry that I slandered ghonorrea by comparing it to pancreatic cancer. Clearly I forgot the nUaNcE between these two horrible sicknesses. /s

Wait. How can there be any "nuance" if you can't compare the two parties? Is a comparison of apples with oranges flawed because of the "nuance"?

It's supposed to make people go: "yeah the dems suck too" rather than understand anything about what's going on.

That's what you think the intent is. I think that it's supposed to state that the US democratic system is not suitable for a fair and equitable world and the Dems are not the solution of the mess the US is in.

You can have your own interpretation but don't assume that this was OP's intent.

Are you having a stroke? I don’t follow your point and/or syntax.

I was making reference to this.

I never said you can't compare. I'm saying this comparison is devoid of any content. The establishment dems suck for many reasons. None of which you can find here.

You can have your own interpretation but don’t assume that this was OP’s intent.

I think I will.

[edit] the point that everyone is emphasizing is the Republicans is setting the US on fire. The Dems have put on rallies to stop it. The posts that are saying "both sides" are just insane to me, but whatever. [/edit]

I know. Typos are different than incoherent grammar, though. Obviously, you got my point, as well.

I never said you can't compare.

Umm, you claimed that it's a false equivalency to claim that both reps and dems don't give a fuck about the people.

The establishment dems suck for many reasons. None of which you can find here.

The meme never claimed to be comprehensive. You're making a mountain out of a molehill. No one claimed that both were "the same".

I think I will.

You're free to be wrong.

The Dems have put on rallies to stop it.

I doubt that the main resistance comes from the dems.

As are you.

Have a pleasant day! (no sarcasm)
