The District of Columbia Democratic Party filed a lawsuit this month to prevent a vote on implementing ranked choice voting in the nation's capital.

    Got what? Both sides are the same? Let me check the list:

    Democrat Republican
    Don’t want ranked voting Don’t want ranked voting
    Want everybody to have a puppy dog Want to kill every puppy dog

    Nah, still not the same. It just sucks you are stuck with two parties that don’t completely oppose each other on all policy points.

      Republicans opposing Democrats on all points is how we got into this mess, blame Newt Gingrich

        Always someone to blame as well. My point wasn’t that the 2 party system should totally oppose one another. It is that there are just 2 parties to choose from at all.

        I wanted to keep it light-hearted as it is the meme and all that… But, you want me to mention their actual points? To be fair and balanced?

        You wanted me to mention the control over women’s bodies, abortions for me but not for thee?

        Or maybe the supporting killing children in schools by only granting thought and prayers whenever a tragedy strikes AGAIN? You know the EU pretty much stopped reporting all the shooting incidents in the states as it is no longer newsworthy? It is only through America-centric Lemmy communities that I hear about most shootings.

        Or perhaps the red-scare levels of fearmongering about insert minority that is easily targeted of this season?

        This is what I see republicans be through their actions.
