No, you're quite wrong, please take a look at this -

One side has a regressive base and one side has a progressive base. Individual politicians can suck but the overall direction from voters is absolutely not the same on both sides.

Figures check out. You are correct, the voter bases are equally as polarised in opposite directions.

I'm not sure if you're being sarcastic or not?

If you look at the figures - you can't come away with the conclusion that the only difference is 'giant douche' versus 'turd sandwich'. One side is trying to get a Progressive agenda done, the other side is trying to Conserve the status quo.

You can have a preference for which one of those things happens, but you can't tell me with a straight face that they're both the same.

There's nothing progressive about 'progressives'.

"There's nothing conservative about 'conservatives'"

Surely that convinced you, right? Did I sway you to my side with that incredible argument?

There is no convincing delusional asshats like you. Learned that a while ago.
