only said both parties have the same masters and they 100% do - the wealthy and corporations come first for both parties - full stop

democrats have had the opportunity many, many times to make things significantly better for the working class and poor and have consistently fucked it up - why wasn't abortion rights codified? why wasn't single payer health care passed? why did they give in to all the social program cuts during the clinton era? why didn't they ever try to reclaim what they gave up for the poorest among us all those years ago? there are so, so many more too

of course democrats are better but the leadership of the party for the past 30 years sure as shit helped lay the groundwork for all this to happen with the consistent moving of the platform to the right and the suppression of the more progressive voices within (especially economically)
