> Neoliberals haven’t been losing elections… leftists have. Big laugh from this. This country is locked into a two party system and one of them unfortunately isn't "leftist". Same with a bunch of other political ideologies. Either way, taking the stance of "you're losers, so you better vote for us" is *really* convincing, just sayin. If you want leftists to vote dem like they are a monolith, then dems have to act like a monolith and not like a bucket catching scraps. > Both parties do not have the same goals and just because private interest groups will never stop trying to influence them doesn’t mean the parties themselves have the same goals. They take money from the same oligarchs. They hide donor sources through superpacs. They trade stocks with government intel. They harbor incredible resentment for the poor. They throw our tax dollars at bombs used to kill children. How exactly are their goals that different?

> Either way, taking the stance of "you're losers, so you better vote for us" is *really* convincing, just sayin. If you want leftists to vote dem like they are a monolith This is a democracy. If leftists are losing then it is because they are unpopular with voters. If leftists want to change that it is up to them. Historically they find and excuse not to vote every election which is why the government has moved right. Leftists always take this “our way or the highway” stance and look all pikachu faced when voters choose the highway. If you really can’t tell the difference between the goals of the two parties then you are intentionally not looking. Republicans want to make it illegal to be trans while dems have trans politicians fighting for trans rights. This is just one of many blatantly obvious differences that you pretend don’t exist so you can continue your bad faith argument if “both sides same”.
