“The parties are the exact same” is an automatic block for me.
You’re either deliberately trolling or stupid beyond redemption. Either way, I’m not wasting any time on your stupidity.

We are in the age of "there are Democrats, and there is Evil. Capital E Evil"
Goodness, am I sick of "BUT BOTH PARTIES SUPPORT GENOCIDE!1!!!!1" from people who have never learned a single fact in their lives.
Yeah, better to vote for the three-year-younger, physically and mentally unfit dictator wannabe.
Their virginity is too important to compromise.
Also, it makes a virtue out of sleeping in and not standing in a boring line with neighbors to vote. So middle class.
Must have gone to Liberty University.
But today? Get the hell out of here.
But the G.W. Bush administration was satisfactory evidence of differences between the parties.
SNL spoofed the second debate by mocking how much Gore and Bush said they agreed on things
And then a year later … welp
1/2
That's when the differences become apparent. The contingencies. And who do you want in charge then? 2/2
The charitable (and technically correct) take is that it's really a point about the limits of a US president to sway from the status quo, but the really simple read of "Bush = Gore" is something that I don't think aged well

They are NOT in opposition.
I stand in opposition to both.
What they don't like to admit is neither party actually accomplishes what
each really wants. And both fear monger.
You’re annoyed because you feel seen.
A few states are now doing RCV, but we need it nationally.
The only difference is that in the U.S the coalition party forms before the election, and in a parliamentary system it forms after.
Ask me, a person who once voted for Ralph Nader
It didn’t work. None of it worked.
It’s harder to pull off Stop The Steal BS if Trump loses by a big margin. And if Trump wins, let it be a split EC-popular vote verdict. If Trump won popular vote, it would be too demoralizing.
All night long.
A civic-minded person recognizes that the first thing is what matters. A person who struggles to manage their own emotions fixates on the second thing, so I wouldn't say "stupid" necessarily, just sad.
My brother in Christ, I'm old enough to remember Sam Nunn and Scoop Jackson.
He's now finishing his 3rd term as governor (still WA-D).
Parties matter.
Silber would have been terrible on other things though. Genuinely rough choice.
"I know what Dan Quayle means when he says it's best for children to have two parents. You bet it is. And it would be good if they could all have trust funds, too. We can't all be born rich, handsome and lucky, & that's why we have a Democratic Party."
Man that was 17 years ago...things may have changed since then.
But instead, Trump is talking about "finishing the job" so the whole Gaza argument doesn't make sense either.
The body count for uncontrolled climate change will be HUNDREDS OF MILLIONS dead.
THAT is the moral equation.
Perspective matters.
They get really pissy when they realize they're being mocked. It's like kryptonite to them.
I feel blessed.
I can't think of a time it accomplished anything with those edgelord losers. Just block.
The same people are in every relationship advice community telling someone to divorce their spouse for using the wrong toilet bowl cleaner.
I ignore self proclaimed Libertarians, too.
Most other center-left parties are still terrible on LGBTQ rights, immigration, or both.
Meanwhile the Republicans are the worst mainstream party worldwide. We have the easiest choice in the democratic world.
