Welcome to the News community!
Rules:
1. Be civil
Attack the argument, not the person. No racism/sexism/bigotry. Good faith argumentation only. This includes accusing another user of being a bot or paid actor. Trolling is uncivil and is grounds for removal and/or a community ban. Do not respond to rule-breaking content; report it and move on.
2. All posts should contain a source (url) that is as reliable and unbiased as possible and must only contain one link.
Obvious biased sources will be removed at the mods’ discretion. Supporting links can be added in comments or posted separately but not to the post body. Sources may be checked for reliability using Wikipedia, MBFC, AdFontes, GroundNews, etc.
3. No bots, spam or self-promotion.
Only approved bots, which follow the guidelines for bots set by the instance, are allowed.
4. Post titles should be the same as the article used as source. Clickbait titles may be removed.
Posts which titles don’t match the source may be removed. If the site changed their headline, we may ask you to update the post title. Clickbait titles use hyperbolic language and do not accurately describe the article content. When necessary, post titles may be edited, clearly marked with [brackets], but may never be used to editorialize or comment on the content.
5. Only recent news is allowed.
Posts must be news from the most recent 30 days.
6. All posts must be news articles.
No opinion pieces, Listicles, editorials, videos, blogs, press releases, or celebrity gossip will be allowed. All posts will be judged on a case-by-case basis. Mods may use discretion to pre-approve videos or press releases from highly credible sources that provide unique, newsworthy content not available or possible in another format.
7. No duplicate posts.
If an article has already been posted, it will be removed. Different articles reporting on the same subject are permitted. If the post that matches your post is very old, we refer you to rule 5.
8. Misinformation is prohibited.
Misinformation / propaganda is strictly prohibited. Any comment or post containing or linking to misinformation will be removed. If you feel that your post has been removed in error, credible sources must be provided.
9. No link shorteners or news aggregators.
All posts must link to original article sources. You may include archival links in the post description. News aggregators such as Yahoo, Google, Hacker News, etc. should be avoided in favor of the original source link. Newswire services such as AP, Reuters, or AFP, are frequently republished and may be shared from other credible sources.

For copyright reasons, you are not allowed to copy an entire article into your post body. This is an instance wide rule, that is strictly enforced in this community.

This comes from a third party football team viewpoint that labels both the dominant teams misguided and seemingly infallible following, while also thinking their alternate team would be infallible if it could play.
There can be blind loyalty to anything. That's human nature. But you ignore the many times Democrats have burned their own because they do tend to take the higher path, whereas Republicans are more known to march in step and protect their own, usually while projecting onto the left the same behavior they did.
Your caricature is a strawman of politics. I wish it was as simplistic as you make it out to be.
Yeah, that’s called electoral politics. Do you know how earlier we would’ve gotten civil rights if the right were too busy arguing over who was more racist, whilst letting pro civil rights politicians gain power. Would’ve been awesome.
Unfortunately, right wingers know when to lock in and stop ANY semblance of progress from the left. I wish the left would figure this out by now.
the last president supported segregation of schools
sorry but dont just grow up from that take it from my great grandparents
and the last election we had harris and walz who both worked with republicans
walz worked with trump to take care of protesters that were fighting for all of us to live in a clean environment but hey democrats should get a free pass because they say and do a few good things compared to the republicans who democrats are supposedly fighting against on our behalf
at the dnc protesters who were fighting for all us there as well to have healthcare, a world without war, living wages, etcetera were locked out but the republicans and celebrities got in and had grand ol' time at the gala
where does the differences come in and how is does it help when democrats are bathing and sleeping with republicans
It's not that you're wrong, it's that you're trying to use a broad brush that groups everyone in the same light. No one is getting a free pass either, all of those have been mentioned in the scope that Democrats need to do better, and stop only going halfway when they manage to get traction. The American people need to do better too, the acceptance that this is how it is contributes to the problem. As does the apathy of "both sides" which you're using here.
As a side note: I'm usually not a stickler for grammar and spelling, I figure if there is understanding any mistakes are fine in a casual discussion. But I have to say your sentence structure is hard to follow sometimes. A bit better wording would allow your points to flow a bit better.
You should probably take your meds regularly. Who knows, maybe you'll feel better after a while.
