      Yet another demonstration of why both sides actually are fucked up. When politics are treated like a team sport, with convenient idiots mindlessly telling anyone who has the audacity to point out issues with both teams to ‘Stuff your both sides shit up your ass’. You’re the problem here.

      It’s like having two abusive parents and the siblings pointing out that both are abusive getting shouted down by the rest who think Dad should be off the hook because Mom is worse. You can still be “pro Dad” while pointing out both have issues. Doing otherwise lets Dad continue to get worse, making Mom not look so bad in comparison.

      That’s the rational take and I’m sure plenty of people will vote Biden following that rationale.

      The top poster’s “pestilence is a good thing” (i.e. Biden is a “good guy”) statement on the other hand is insanelly tribalist and pure fantasy.

      Being a Lesser Evil by comparison with an extremelly Evil option is not at all the same as being Good.
