minus-squaregivesomefucks@lemmy.worldlinkfedilinkEnglisharrow-up5·edit-26 months agoNot expecting a real answer, but wanted to try: In America there’s two parties, but three groups of voters. Parties: Democratic Republican. Groups: Conservative Moderate Progressive For the groups, 1 and 2 always shit on 3. 2 and 3 shit on 1. But if anyone from 3 says anything that isn’t unadulterated praise of 2… 2 complains about “bOtH sIdES”. And when 1 shits on 2, 2 apologizes and acts more like 1 Why? Why are moderates not allowed to be criticized from the left? But when the right does it, they compromise with conservatives? Do you honestly think group three is only allowed to criticize group one? If so why?

Would you say they’re trying to defend cancer?

In America there’s two parties, but three groups of voters.
Parties:
Democratic
Republican.
Groups:
For the groups, 1 and 2 always shit on 3.
2 and 3 shit on 1.
But if anyone from 3 says anything that isn’t unadulterated praise of 2…
2 complains about “bOtH sIdES”.
