Remember when Trump was bad because he lied about everything?

Trump is still just as bad as he was before, a complete and utter joke. But the democrat establishment is no different, other than the mass slaughter.

If you can’t see the difference between GOP and Dems, or think Dems are complicit in Israel’s retaliation on Hamas you need some serious help.

I can see the difference. Democrats pretend to care.

By the vast majority of their politicians participating - wholeheartedly - in the genocide propaganda, the lies, and the financial and material backing that is entirely necessary for this genocide to happen, the Democrat party is the one that purposely and deliberately orchestrated a genocide. Without Democrat endorsement this genocide wouldn't have happened.

Whataboutism doesn't work anymore after genocide.

Democrats are just as much an obstacle against a future where social values, honesty, and truth matter. Their purpose is to stop an actual opposition from forming, to absorb the Sanders votes and pretend they care about the same things.

If anything democrats are worse because the gaslight and say how this is the best we can do.  

Republicans are straight up about fuck you unless you’re rich,  with some red meat thrown out for evangelicals

Both with for the oligarchs, Rs are somehow more honest about it.

"They both are going to bone you against your will, but democrats will use a bit of cheap lube so technically they are a better." Is all I hear when people try to tell us that democrats are obviously morally better than republicans.

Democrats are the abusive spouse that convinced you they actually are doing their best and things are just tough right now but they really do care. They then take you to the Olive garden for an awkward dinner, leave the table early making you pay, and then gaslight you later while crying about how you're just using them. They then push you down the stairs and toss you some of the shitty baguettes to eat off the floor.

Republicans just beat you and say "you're married to me get the fuck over it or I'll give you something to cry about." They then offer you some heroine and a date going out to kick homeless people. They hurt you but at least you get to get royally pissed off and take out your anger on someone lesser than you.

“The democrat party is “purposely and deliberately orchestrated a genocide”. “Without their endorsement the genocide wouldn’t have happened “ Wow. That’s batsh*t crazy stuff. Why isn’t it if HAMAS hadn’t attacked Israel this genocide wouldn’t be happening? It’s forced Biden who HATES Bibi to support him as our ally, and bolstered Bibi’s regime at home. Strategically it’s the stupidest thing Hamas could have done. Yet here you are, defending them and pushing their propaganda against your own best interests.
