Under the orange asshole's reign.
Don't ever forget what Trump did, because he will do worse if he's elected again.
and don't forget what Biden and the Democrats do
both parties are already bought by corporations
That's fair. Don't know why you're getting downvoted for stating the facts tho.
It's because on the surface it looks like the classic bullshit "both sides" claim. Where one side is clearly worse but they try to make it seem like both are similar.
Not sure if this is different to be honest. The Rs have been trying to undermine the EPA for decades, there's a long history there that shouldn't be ignored even if recent D admins haven't been great.
I don't have the time to do a deeper dive at the moment, likely others don't want to even bother, so they just downvote since a good 90% of the time the both sides type responses are disingenuous.
Harris supports oil and fracking
it is both sides
Supporting oil and fracking isn't even in the same ballpark as wanting to deregulate and eliminate the EPA entirely.
But they ARE in the same ballpark tho.
I don't see the vast difference you do.
The news cycles manufacture* polarization so people think there is a huge difference between both parties, and there really isn't. We've gone so far right, that right is considered left, and anyone alive who's been paying attention and speaks on it is accused of being too old/bot/shill/foreign propagandists du jour.
Neoliberalism
Yes, and Afaict, it's right of what neolib was.
This has been going on for decades. It pops up every now and again in the news, cue public outrage, the next news cycle comes along and this is forgotten about until a media outlet covers it again, repeat.
