Political manipulation on Lemmy. How fitting for Lemmings.

If only we always voted for the other party of our entrenched two party system, everything would be fine. Amirite?

    I don’t like dems, but are you actually pretending republicans aren’t deliberately destructive?

    It's two sides of the same coin manipulating the populace for a common goal. Controlled by the same puppeteers.

    Both sides are ruled by money if that is what you mean but they definitely represent different groups of wealthy people. Tired of your voice not being heard? Just try being wealthy instead of poor.

    they definitely represent different groups of wealthy people.

    That’s sometimes true, but you’ll also often find the same person funding both parties.

    Since at least the days of Senator Barry Goldwater, the petite bourgeoisie have tended to prefer the Republican party, but the haute bourgeoisie are less partisan and will often fund both.
