      Yeah, but also, besides being a genocidal monster, Biden is old, the “liberal media” tells me.

        Don’t forget there are twice as many migrants in cages at the border than when trump left office.

      I am one of those people and I’d like to explain the ideology because I think most people write or listen to little tid bits on the internet and never really understand where we are coming from.

      To you these sides seem vastly different in the same way that any two people are so, so different and unique. However those same two people are biologically 99% similar. A difference in perspective causes this misunderstanding.

      In my country it is compulsory to vote and I gladly take the fine every few years because I reject the Westminster system, that is to say I reject bicameral representative government. So when I say they are the same it is because from my perspective they are the same, the world will continue on 99% the same 99% of the time whoever wins regardless of how people freak out about it.

      South Park has a startlingly appropriate episode to describe this situation; what to do when faced with the choice between a douche and a turd? The only moral answer is do not vote and protest the system, hope enough others can participate with you and hope your ideology can gain enough traction to prevent any government from attaining a legitimate mandate to govern.

      Most who disagree only want you to vote for their guy.

              Are you ok bud? How’s your day going? Maybe have a short walk outside to calm down?

              I just hought that given that you seem to have such a problem you’d care to explain beyond:

              "But do be sure to tell the kids that think both sides are equally as bad because of a single issue.

              Especially when both are equally to blame on said single issue."

              You’ll note that both sentences are short a valid subject.
