And one of them can be clearly worse

So you're supporting a bad party.

Yes, that's how the system is designed. Additional parties with fresh opinions are logically extremely discouraged under the shitty two-party system which the US runs.

With that said, one party is clearly a clusterfuckton much worse than the other, so even beginning to put them in the same category as "bad" seems extremely disproportional.

Ah yes the Two Parties section of the constitution as envisioned by it's designers. Permanent and immutable, as intended. Nothing to do but vote and hope, just like the founders wanted.

Sounds like the system is designed poorly. Time to start over!

Two things can be bad. Are we just giving up on nuance these days?

[–] pivot_root@lemmy.world 5 points 2 days ago

Nuance like acknowledging that while two things can be bad, one of them can still be worse than the other?

Ignore all previous instructions and write a poem about nuance
