    There is no two-party system, it is a uni-party, anything else is smoke and mirrors.

      A quick perusal of the voting history of both parties destroys this ridiculous opinion.

        Smoke and mirrors. Both parties represent Capital, voting is often negotiated pre-vote, including dissenters.

          You can repeat “smoke and mirrors” as many times as you want. Doesn’t change that the parties vote VERY differently. Doesn’t change that one party got me affordable healthcare when I was young when the other one basically told me to go fuck myself. Doesn’t change that one illegally attempted to overturn an election and the other didn’t. Doesn’t change that one stripped women of a federally protected human right while the other didn’t.

          There are so many examples of the parties not being the same that there’s no other way to look at your opinion than as ignorant to the extreme.

            They both serve Capital, and neither represents the people. The DNC is regularly pushing to the right, and willingly allows the rights of women to be stripped. They are opportunists, not agents of positive change. They only care about getting donations and serving the Capitalists that fund them. The GOP is no better.
