    It’s your type’s eagerness to always bring it back to Democrats that is notable.

    Edit: more downvotes please. It’s a badge of honor for a bunch of contrarians to disapprove of my message that Republicans are infinitely worse. We all know Democrats are disappointing and sometimes even criminal and your need to remind us every chance you get speaks volumes.

    It’s actually better if you reply instead of only downvote though so I can know for sure who the malicious/ignorant users are. Can y’all do me that favor?

      Misread your comment the first time.

      What is my type?

      Again, I have lived through many transitional elections and have seen this cycle many times before, so if saying out loud the reality of our broken two-party system is hurtful to you, my apologies.

      What I’m actually eager for, is to stop that cycle, and to stop it, you must first acknowledge it.

      And doing your mixed capitalization of the both sides meme, ain’t it.

        Your type is the person who, when hearing about Republicans doing something bad, does not pause but immediately reminds everyone how bad Democrats are.

          I’m sorry that I live in reality.

          I’m sorry that you want to pretend that when Democrats get back in power, that they’re going to hold these criminals to account.

          But most of all, I’m sorry that you still have faith in the system, so much so that you are casting shame on anyone reminding people that the Democrats are not our saviors, and that it’s up to us.

            I stopped reading. You’ve no idea what I believe, but you’re telling one story and unknowingly giving your true one away.

                Mostly Democrat irony, clearly. Republican irony is fine. And don’t anyone forget it. The most important fact ever: Democrats are worse.

                No I’m not the one in many threads trying to shift focus away from a select group

                  Pretty sure he’s a left leaning voter being critical of his own party…

                  You know, the party that supposedly actually cares about his vote?

                  Only criticizing republicans is really dumb idea.

                  We need to hold democrat leaders to an even higher standard, because they are the ones supposedly representing us.

                  And they are utterly failing. Democrat leadership is pathetically weak. If you can’t see it, keep your eyes closed I guess.

                    You and your ilk aren’t doing anything useful. You’re just trying to pull votes away from the party of baseline semi sanity. When Jill Stein takes votes from a Democrat, you get all hot and bothered because that’s your only goal. Ps. Zero surprise it’s you saying this shit. I tagged you months ago as a user who says “sHiTlIb”. No one who uses that dumbass term has any good intentions or valuable opinions.
