      From an outside perspective, it’s the difference between someone looking at you with distaste, and someone aggressively attempting to sink a 9" knife into your gut, repeatedly, while standing in a pile of cut up baby corpses. Just because both sides have issues, doesn’t mean the 2 are comparable.

        If the scenario was what you detailed you would of course be right. But it seems more like:

        • Imperialism and pollution wrapped in the right-wing.
        • Imperialism and maybe just a little less pollution wrapped in the left-wing.

        I don’t care who fucks up their own country more. I care about who fucks me up more, which currently is basically the same for both sides.

          They’re both the same except one of them wants the entire LGBT community dead and one of them wants more renewable energy

          But yeah totally both the same

            But you don’t understand… They aren’t LGBT, so it doesn’t impact them and are clueless about how climate change affects them, so they don’t care.

        Look, I can wholeheartedly belive Party A does good for it’s country, while Party B does bad. But somehow both do on my expense.
