    This type of comment that says their side is right… are just hilarious to me. Corporations bought your government through bill riders packed in 1,000 page bills.

    Neither side wants to fix this mess, because their millions in campaign funding relies on keeping corporations and fat cats happy.

    If you are in the bottom 95%, you aren’t being served by your government anymore.

    This Conservative vs Liberal fighting is exactly what they want. Serves as a nice distraction.

        Liberals thinking they were voting for ‘lesser evil’ got us here. This is 100% on the shoulders of shitlibs that cant tell the difference between red fascism and blue fascism.

          And what solution are you offering here? Not vote? Vote 3rd party? Vote for Trump?

          I’ve already voted for progressives in my local elections.

              You still didn’t answer my question. What solution do you have? “Biden sux” is true, but just yelling it over and over is not gonna further any leftist ideology…

              God damn your takes are stupid. “zero impact”. To prove a universal quantification false only a single counterexample is required. That’s it. Nothing more is required and then poof you are an idiot. You sure you want to make that bet? You absolutely sure that voters have zero impact on policy or legislation? Cause, like, votes determine the passage of policy where I live.

              Counterexample:: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cannabis_in_Colorado

              Oh look. Votes determined the legality of cannabis. Was illegal before then votes then not. That’s a policy change BTW in case you are even more confused than the average stoner.

              Done! I’ve proved you wrong! Congrats! No further effort by anybody is required to prove you are stupid. Just one example was required. Nothing more.

            Because being shot in the face is exactly the same as stubbing a toe. They both hurt- and because they both hurt- they HAVE to hurt the exact same!

            Ah yes, because both are TOTALLY not owned by corporate interests, and both will shoot you in the head when they have the opportunity. Neither party cares about you and only wingcucks think that either party will deliver upon the promises they want and not enrich their corporate donors.
