Typically, when I encounter the statement “both sides are the same,” it’s often voiced by a Democratic-leaning conservative like yourself, aiming to discredit critics of the Democratic Party. While acknowledging similarities in capitalism and conservatism, there are notable distinctions. Wouldn’t it be preferable to foster more diversity of perspectives? If we truly want to address dissenting voices, we should invite them to actively participate and offer solutions rather than merely criticizing from the sidelines. Transitioning from first-past-the-post voting allows for more accurate representation and mitigates the spoiler effect. Electoral reform can be pursued at the state level without waiting for federal action, as demonstrated by Maine and Alaska. However, Republicans are working to restrict alternative electoral systems. Why adopt the same voting methods preferred by Republicans? Embracing multiple political parties ensures broader representation and engagement, benefiting both citizens and the Democratic Party. Increased voter participation leads to more democratic outcomes. So, what’s holding back Democratic-led states from prioritizing electoral reform? Let’s take action and advocate for change within our own states to ensure better representation and competition among candidates. We deserve genuine representation, not excuses.
I mean, at least she’s not lying about it.
The “they’re all the same” crowd isn’t listening to this. Can’t feel smug and superior when a politician speaks the truth.

This is calling out the actively BS fence sitting.
There is a clear difference between one side who is actively banning books, going against women’s rights, and demonizing non-christians.
What a vague comment
Nah not vague at all.
So many people would rather go, “What do you mean that politician sucks? Everyone sucks.”
Saying everyone sucks adds nothing to the conversation and it’s a form of fence sitting. Call out bullshit - period.
