    Honestly on so many things, no joke there but the right constantly proposes the democrats as, awesome and great.

    It’s like

    Right: My democratic opponent wants to help the homeless, and make sure average people have a dignified life. and not torture babies for no reason!

    People: Hey you know that actually sounds like a good idea

    Actual democratic candidate: Those people on the right are slandering me, don’t worry I won’t make any of your lives easier, and here I’ll torture a baby right now to prove this slander wrong!

      The Democrats are not the left. That’s why they have the similar policies as the Republicans.

        That.

        Democrats are Center Right, Republicans are Far Right.

        So if you are pissed off at how things have been going politically for the past few decades maybe you are actually Left leaning, but never knew.

        I want to spend our tax money on healthcare, schools, infrastructure, renewable energy, better jobs, better pay, etc. instead of bombs and corporations. The taxes we already pay, mind you. And honestly I’d rather raise the rates on the rich (somehow) and lower the working classes to keep the net the same.

        If you are paycheck to paycheck, tax rate matters to you.

        If you make millions, you don’t really care.

    If only the Left and the Right could work together to prevent the cyborg uprising of the capitalists that makes way for fully automated pansexual gender fluid capitalism.

    I feel like it would be more like Repo Men (2010) if it were to happen.

    But this would pretty cool
