And really ‘both sides’ are bad because we let them be. More attendance and information for primaries and choices would probably be a hell of a lot more palatable in most places.
I agree, the democrat party in particular does give room to socialist policies on a more local level, just look at Mamdani (and hopefully Al-Sayed in a few weeks). If you elect enough of those and get rid of the “nothing ever happens” democrats like Schumer and Jeffreys, you can make real change happen.
Good luck trying to do that on the Republican side, the most you’ll do is vote for someone who’s slightly less Hitler but still very conservative.

Booth sides need money to win marginal elections. Until we get unlimited money out of politics, we get bullshit corporate bootlicking.
Vote for the best of candidate you can, and demand they legislate away Citizens United and the associated bullshit that is corporate “free speech”.

Democratic Party
Don’t repeat Trump’s poor grammar.
Both sides are bad, but we stand a better chance of fixing the one that actually wants us to have elections.
