Mfw both sides same
Your Democrats are closer in ideology to Republicans than they are to their voters.
I really dislike this both sides argument. Democrats are not the same as republicans. Slow yes, but not fascists.
And if you keep voting left then the government will get more and more left. This both sides argument just stops people voting at all and if less people vote then republicans win.
And if you keep voting left then the government will get more and more left.
This has never been the case, and every single brief look at any historical voting pattern will tell you this is wrong. Clinton round 2, Obama round 2 in modern times easily disproves this theory.
FDR? New deal was such a success at the ballot box that it basically took until Reagan to (significantly) undo it.
The Americans voted right again after Clinton and Obama. Stalling any good work that they had done. Imagine if the next president had been on the left? Imagine if Gore had got a majority instead of “both sides are the same”.
Honestly if over half the population is going to vote against their own interests why even bother trying to help?
Gore did get a majority, by over half a million votes.
