Life is full of choosing the lesser of two evils.

    "LiFe iS fUll Of chOOsIng tHe lEsSer oF twO eVilS."

    Do you have any actual arguments or just instant noodle armchair truisms?

    "Lesser evils" are only worth choosing if the difference between the 2 evils is big enough to have an impact. In this case it isn't, both parties are genocidal gangs with no redeeming qualities whatsoever. The only difference between the 2 is what they say when they know the public can hear them (and even then their rhetoric is getting more and more similar) and what the corporate owned media says about them, but in practice, when it comes to quality of life, repression, violence, wages, legislation, etc... aka metrics that actually matters, there is virtually no difference between the 2.

    Ah well, if there’s no difference you can vote for the side building concentration camps in the US then I guess. I mean, the DHS is literally unfunded at the moment because democratic lawmakers are demanding ICE reform.

    Or, if you start your own party let me know, I’ll vote for ya. 😉

    democratic lawmakers are demanding ICE reform.

    Aka they are okay with violent forced deportations as long as it's done ✨ legaly ✨.

    Why do you assume the Democrats wouldn't build concentration camps as well btw? No, because last I checked, the Dems didn't do shit about kids in cages, forced prison labor or the US's torture prisons like Guantanamo and gave more budget than Trump to the Trump border wall not to mention their support and funding of literal concentration camps in Israel. Does that sound like the actions of a party that wouldn't build concentration in the US to you? Because it sure as heck doesn't to me.

    In my opinion, if the Dems had been elected they would have done it and justified it with their classic pr technique of letting the Reps vote whatever they want in congress while they stand by and pretend like they couldn't do anything about it despite their candidate being in office and go "well, the law is in the book now so we have to play along" like they did with Roe v Wade.
