    Anyone still trying to claim “both sides” at this point are just willfully ignorant.

      Anybody who thinks “both sides” aren’t responsible for horrific shit are just as primally tribal as conservatives. Try thinking for yourself sometime.

        One side is literally trying to erase the rights of people like me and my friends, while the other isn’t. So what I think is that you should shut the fuck up.

        Want to know the difference between people who vote Democrat and people who vote Republican? Most people either vote for Republicans or against them. There isn’t a “both sides” it’s “these people scare me because they stand for violence, hate speech, less rights for anyone who isn’t a wealthy white male, and they attempted a literal insurrection when their guy lost an election”

      Or they live in a healthier democracy and their right wing isn’t as debased as yours. Not everyone is American and not every conservative party is advocating fascism.
