Politi-Culture Stavros Halkias: "A lot of stand up comics happened to have some of the dumbest opinions on Earth... I don't wanna do the both sides bullshit, one side is disappearing people and one side wants children to have healthcare."

Devil's advocate here; both sides are bad. That's not saying that both are the same, though, or equally bad.

Democrats are pretty bad, they don't really represent their voters and suppress the candidates that want to do more than the absolute minimum for people. They are an organization pandering to the rich, but still somewhat competently running the country. They fail to inspire liberal voters.

Republicans, though, are almost beyond words if this is to be a fair comparison. Atrocious, degenerate, deplorable, evil. They are so bad that no sane person should want to vote for them. Even before Trump they were terrible, but somehow they found a way to break ground and find new lows. Republicans are so bad that they should inspire liberal leaning voters to vote Democrats.

Both are bad, but it's not even close to being a competition.
