Because they are complicit. The two parties are not the same, they differ on a few dozen topics, of which the public is acutely aware. For the other 1,000,000+ issues, they are either in agreement or are complicit in Republican ideology.
What "million plus" issues are there?
Fuck this "both sides" nonsense, it's so goddamn stupid. Sheer fucking delusion no different than MAGA delusion.
I don't fully buy into the 'both sides are the same' argument. I do believe the two parties are not different enough though. Basic shit like universal healthcare, civil rights, taxing the wealthy by closing loopholes, etc. should be what the left is doing in my opinion.
Both sides same is meant to deter people from voting.
its called a uniparty, those on the outside us, call it a coalition party single party, they pretty much are. thats why you notice they act as one, and only have disagreement on some things and nother others. WAR, defense, israel, foreign aid, bailouts are off limits to opposition.
but CULTURE WAR, SJW is a little healthcare(just not enough) is ok to fight for.
