    Oh, I agree. The GOP’s public policy is entirely based on grievance politics focusing on in group-out group dynamics. “Your life sucks? Make these OTHER people suffer.” Dems branding is more focused on inclusivity, so there’s a whole lot less of “fuck you, that’s why.” I end up voting for who will cause the least damage, not systemic change.

      100% accurate, 1000% depressing.

      At least for the big elections, locally I do what I can with whatever 3rd party is up for joining in (sometimes they work with the local dems because half the time they dont even run anyone which is even more depressing)
