"Both sides bad" is why we have Trump.

Democrats took America from gays are illegal, to full gay rights with marriage. Environmental laws have been all Democrats. If Democrats did nothing, Trump wouldn't have signed 76 executive orders reversing Biden orders on his very first day.

No "vote blue no matter who" and not demanding actual representation is how we got Trump. People got duped by a con becuase they have never seen the real thing, so anything different can look appealing to the uncritical.

I love how liberals bleat this because it implies genocide is good.

No it does not. It means do something to move the needle instead of sitting on the sidelines bitching about everything while doing fuck all. I know you guys are great at mental gymnastics but that's a stretch even by the standard on .ml

Care to explain why people are stuck on the sidelines without a viable political party to represent their interests?

Nihilism, laziness, there are plenty of reasons.
