    I cede your point, but I wasn't exactly suggesting to throw my comrades in a wood chipper. I was saying there is no real difference between the two parties except that one was potentially giving me $2,000 which would improve my material conditions somewhat, being an incredibly poor person and all.

    Coming at me a bit hot on the defense of the Dems here.

      I'm not here to defend the Dems, I'm not even American. I'm just really sick of people in leftist spaces getting weirdly gung ho about throwing minorities under the bus in exchange for table scraps from fascists without thinking about it.

            Agreed, it's easy to turn people with the promises of monetary gain when wealth inequality is this severe.

            It'll be the game plan, and has been, of fascists forever. So I'm in the wrong here really for even suggesting it.

            Going to get harder and harder to navigate this as time goes on as well, people will accept some pretty fucking bleak things, or as was my case here not fully consider them, for a small amount of financial alleviation under a society like this.
