The OP meme is not calling for nuance, it's saying that if you're shittalking democrats you're helping Republicans win.
My democrat state rep sucks and is in practice a thinly-veiled Republican coasting on incumbency and people not investigating beyond the 'D'
My federal rep (D) has been actively complicit in perpetuating the genocide in Palestine and allowing Trump to walk all over Venezuela. I actually put in a lot of effort with antiwar groups to try to sway them in the past. What I learned is that when it comes to war and empire if they want to climb the ranks in DC they're going to tow the line.
Open Republicans are obviously worse, but theyre also a non factor in my state, they just run for 'nonpartisan' seats or pose as democrats. This is also why i chaff at vote-bluers, they will act like challenging an incumbent 'democrat' who sucks is somehow helping Republicans
