both sides are the same
I mean, if you don't care about trans people, or gay people, or women, or unions, or having the possibility of making better choices in the future without having to resort to large scale violence then sure, they both have similar economic policies, I guess. It must be nice to not care about horrible things happening to most people. It makes it so much easier when you don't care about people, right?
Sadly a question you can ask Kopmala and Biden themselves about why they're not trying to earn back the people whose votes they lost given what Trump's going to do, but I guess expecting two people to change course is probably infinitely harder than the many, many people who've decided not to bother voting.
But I guess those two must be kept safe from critical questions, seeing as no one's even trying to pressure them into changing course (except of course for the protesters who most likely count among those who won't be voting). Then again Biden himself isn't all that concerned about whether or not Trump wins if we're being honest.
Not an American, so no real stake in this but, could you tell me what the Democrats have done in the past four years to protect trans rights? Since you're all so clearly concerned about them an' all.
I think the thing that most impresses me about this post is how you just completely neglected to mention forgein policy in your list of things like at all. The Democrats and Republicans being the same regarding supporting the US Empire (besides one side or the other pretending to be anti-war while being in the opposition sometimes, but not following through on that once in power) is a huge factor here lol. Really shows your priorities and that you just do not give a single shit about the global south.
