    Wile not “both sides” as one side is obviously worse, the democrats did actively work against unions during Biden’s presidency. And sure Biden made talk about passing PRO, which he failed to do, but he also forced terms on the rail unions, and made it illegal for them to strike, and thus making the rail union forever powerless to fight for its members, and dooming it to obsolescence

      Which side is obviously worse?

      I thought we established long ago that committing a genocide is the worst thing anyone can possibly do. And they both are doing that.

            I ain’t going to bother trying to defend democrats from how terrible they are, but it’s no contest as to which is worse objectively. It’s not even close.

              Depends if you judge politicians by their promises or their actions.

              I judge their actions, and the parties are nearly identical by that measure.

                  You’re supposed to be doing that for all parties and politicians. This is what makes you an easy mark for the Dems.

                    I don’t know what to tell you. Republicans stance on environment, terrible. Republicans stance on separation of church and state, terrible.
                    Republican stance on healthcare, terrible. Republican stance on education, terrible. Republican stance on the deficit, terrible. Republican stance on international politics terrible. Republican stance recreational drugs, terrible. Republican stance on taxes, terrible. Republican stance on corporations, terrible Republican stance on vote reform, terrible. Republican stance on the prison system, terrible. Republican stance on civil liberties, terrible. Republican stance on the pandemic, terrible. Republican stance on Russia, terrible. Republican stance on Ukraine, terrible. Republican stance on Israel, terrible. Republican stance on the industrial military complex, terrible. Republican stance on gun ownership, conditional. Republican stance on immigration, terrible. Republican stance disaster recovery, terrible. Republican stance on the economy, terrible. Republican stance on checks and balances, terrible. Republican stance on the military, terrible. Republican stance on infrastructure, terrible. Republican stance on reproductive rights, terrible. Republican stance on climate change, wrong. Republican stance on assistance programs, terrible. Republican stance on affordable housing, terrible. Republican stance on Project 2025 fucking terrible.

                    While the democrats fail a lot of these as well, they are not on lock step wrong, and too far less degrees. Indeed when given any choice, i can determine the Republican answer by its unnecessary cruelty, more so then any fiscal responsibility, or what ever false cause they pay lip service too.
