This has to be the most brain dead community on Lemmy, still pulling this “Both sides” bullshit
I don't know on which community we currently are, but this is the most accurate depiction of what's actually going on. Democrats serve the corporate elite and don't really bother turning it left.
You aren’t wrong in that the democrats prefer the status quo but it’s far from both sides being the same. If we have to pick a side, and if we are still pro democracy, we do, there is only one correct choice.
Now if we can convince that side to then use the victory to change the rules, then so be it. For example, Ranked choice voting would be great, but let’s get more states to use it before expecting the highest office in the land to adopt it.
Western "democracy" in a nutshell. Catch-22 could only dream of such absurdity.
Pick one.
Having a choice means being able to make the wrong one, as we did.
Look at this guy, believing there's actually 2 sides
The most braindead instance is still .world. It's basically reddit in a nutshell
