    This is some shit a 14 year old would think is deep lmao

    Life is far more complex than a simple good/bad dichotomy. If one is bad and another is much worse; they are absolutely not the same and you actually help the worse one by essentially sane washing the depraved lengths they willingly and want to reach.

    With L/R, one has greedy and corrupt outliers and compromised leadership while the other is a majority of grifting hateful racists and sexual abusers who are also greedy as fuck.

    You do bad people a service when you smooth out the good/bad gradient into a solely boolean concept. All nuance is lost, and that only helps those in bad faith.

      Life is more than black and white, that’s why when you’re presented with a black or white option and they both suck you find a different option, you don’t defend the less sucky one.

      And left wing authoritarianism is what you saw in the USSR or China today. It is not simply corruption and greed, it is genocide and suppression of civilians.

        Yeah as in a few oieces of shit vs the entire wing being made up of pieces of shit. Just look at the list of sitting right wing politicians and how many of them have been convicted of sexual abuse of some kind. You won’t find a list even a quarter of the size from the left.

        So yeah, you can fuck off with your brain dead both sides bullshit, moron.
