This is just "both sides are equally wrong/bad."
Maybe I’m too naive, but I didn’t think they were referring to just politics. They were just referring to two people arguing.
Does it normally refer to politics? Maybe for Americans, and they are responsible for a good deal of the English language content online. Right, and the 2 party system...
I'm with you, though, both sides means both sides of an argument. I think the news had something on that a while back- for every climate scientist they interviewed, they had to also interview a climate denier to present a "fair and balanced" view XD
