Just, ah, be careful of the angle you hold it at when you raise it.

I would raise both hands, so we can include the Democrats as well.

Both are part of the problem. Along with their owners.

One of them is certainly a much larger problem.

My list of "ways conservatives have fucked or tried to fuck me or people I care about" goes all the way back to age 13.

I'm not a cheerleader for democrats, but I think we can make our own thread to bitch about them. Only one party is speedwalking us to the 4th Reich right now.

I don't disagree. Republicans are overtly evil.

But many people ignore that both have been facilitating the concentration of wealth and power that is at the core of all the systemic problems affecting almost everyone.

It started around the Reagan era and was reinforced by die bushes and Clinton.

Obama was the big "Change" candidate that was supposed to reverse the trend, but he betrayed people by entrenching it instead. They distracted people though the token measure of "wokeness" and obamacare, which did nothing to address the causes of those problems.

People are right to say Dems are different when it comes to domestic policy, but they agree with Republicans on almost all foreign policy decisions. A significant portion of the criticisms Democrat representatives made of the recent Iran bombings amounted to, "Hey, you didn't give us a chance to agree wholeheartedly!"

And most of this "slide into fascism" is just taking foreign policies and applying them domestically. In that sense, Democrats hold a lot of the blame as well.

Both parties are all in on Empire, but differ slightly on how to divvy up the spoils of war.
