Then there’s the other type of brainwashed idiots, the kind who even after all that has been said and done in the past eight years, insist like a scratched CD on the divide-and-conquer propaganda (strongly pushed by the right) that bOtH pArTiEs ArE tHe SaMe.
They insist on cherry-picked and distorted narratives, insist on a simplistic and stupid view, insist on some holy grail of perfection and purity test, waiting for some charismatic messiah figure with a magic political wand to fix things overnight.
In other words, they insist on some miracle godking figure that is the mirror image of what the orange shithead is to the maga crowd. And they will whip out a number of cherry-picked, out-of-context facts and figures to NOT lift a finger on Election Day. And these cherry-picked, out-of-context tidbits are enthusiastically and forcefully handed to them each day on a platter, pre-digested, by right-wing concern troll farms.
They are just as simple and stupid as the maga plague, and fancy themselves as smarter and savvier than everyone else.

These are the kinds of idiots who actually post on Lemmy, too. Completely proud that they are “sticking it to the man”, while parroting whataboutism and false equivalency.
