In my experience, there are two kinds of people that say both sides are the same.
Apathetic voters and libertarians (ie conservatives who figured out saying they're a conservative makes most of the country hate them).
Exactly, nobody that says it is doing it to actually add anything or advance the conversation. One of my biggest pet peeves when discussing politics, just look at the link I posted. They're nowhere close to the same, you'd have to be willfully ignorant of the data.
