"Both sides bad" has been going on for decades. Hell you could probably make an argument for at least a century now.

All lives matter was a racist dog whistle. Both sides are bad is just the sad state of politics where neither major parties actually care about the people.

It's not good vs evil. It's devil you know vs devil you don't. Except if Trump wins the primary, you probably know both devils.

You are right, there will be people who remain to not buy into the side of the moral grandstanders and they will be shamed incessantly for it and grouped in the same bin as the extreme right even though that is very far from their position.
