Americans: “bOtH sIdEs ArE tHe SaMe”
I’ve come to the conclusion that it’s selfishness hidden behind alleged “leftist ideals.” Things won’t be fixed in their lifetime, therefore they don’t want to participate in taking steps towards that goal. If they can’t have it in the next 10-20 years, the next generation can get fucked.
I wish we could explain to them that it actually feels really good to be doing something positive, substantive, and productive, never mind the end goal.
It’s centrists. They’re just the right-wingers who don’t want anyone to think they’re bad so they go “but I support minorities!” while doing basically nothing to actually help anyone ever because they’re scared of anything moving at any meaningful pace.
One politician: Here is my proposal. Its not perfect and won’t fix everything, but it’s a step in the right direction.
The other politician: Everyone is mean to me and calls me weird. They’re STUPID. Not like my really good friend who just gave me money. The best friend. Amazing friend. I’m putting them in a position of power.

Also I want literally the opposite of everything good on literally every single policy available
(Except maybe abortion; I’ve got some experience with that one and let me tell you it’s a life saver. I won’t stop my allies from making it illegal, nothing like that, but personally I can definitely say I’m a fan.)
