Cheap #bothSides nonsense.
You mean
GqP: lol no plebe

MODERATORS
Then weren't. They had a trifecta for 2 years and it became obvious that they were unwilling to actually fight. They gave up at literally the first sign of resistance. And they haven't put forward anything that would actually change the system. Just a pay raise.

Obama had a 60 seat supermajority in the Senate.
It's not a lack of ability. It's a lack of will.

If someone's using it as an argument "Here's why we need to get involved in political activism and improve the Democratic party," then it makes perfect sense. Biden did good, but the Democrats are far from what we need.
If someone's using it as an argument "Why not just abandon the idea of influencing politics at all, even if that means letting the Republicans have a turn smashing up the country we all live in to sell it as scrap for them and their friends while killing anyone who disagrees, because what's the worst that could happen, Dems suck anyway lol," they are either trying to help the Republicans or they've been fooled by the people who are trying to help the Republicans. They will, in the next few years, be able to have a terrifying and tragic object lesson in what the worst that could happen is.

Republicans: No screw you
Democrats: Maybe if not too much effort
If you are one of the groups of people Republicans are targeting though, it's a huge difference. At least Dems won't utterly devastate and wreck your life because of your demographic.
