Maybe you should look at who has been expanding the surveillance state for the past 25 years, because it's essentially a bipartisan issue in Congress and all administration. Edit to expand on my point, but the Democrats continued sycophancy to giant corporations and refusal to enact policies to benefit actual people is why America has accelerated towards fascism for the past 30 years.

Agreed. But the point they're making (wittingly or unwittingly) isn't "they're both directly and indirectly responsible for the rise of the surveillance state." The fundamental point is: "Both parties are the same because of this one issue." And that position is reductive to the point of being indistinguishable from the positions of centrists and conservatives, both of which often prefer easy-to-digest, broad-stroke politics over wrestling with the nuances.
