    That’s literally all they’ve been doing since Reagan.

    acting like an opposition party.

    It took way too long, but that’s why you can’t drum up the numbers anymore, all but the thickest of skulls have finally realized that Democrat and Republican are both just big corpo, bickering over the social issue symptoms of our rigged economy and society as they maintain the economy and it’s perverse incentives as it is, on the same take by the same oligarchs.

    At least Republicans throw their horrible voters a bone, “Oh you hate the other? we’ll be cruel to them to entertain you and tickle your schaudenfreude fancy!”

    Democrats get nothing for their troubles. We’re told it’s our duty.

    Meanwhile, killing your own non wealthy customers for moar profit? R👍D👌

      I’m reluctantly happy that people are starting to see that wedge issues are crafted by corporations and parroted by business bought representative to pit man against man who can barely buy bread to the point where e pluribus unum was meaningless there decades ago. Greed has no party affiliation.
