The media cares about one thing: money. Outrage=views, and they'll report whatever they think will generate the most outrage.
I assume the title is aimed at that both parties badmouth one another in extreme, cherry-picked and oversimplified ways right?
The issue is that the US has two right wings parties, with one being quite a bit further right.
There is no extreme left party in the US.
There are plenty of people who talk about extreme left ideas, but none of them are elected politicians.

Everyone seems to agree that a revolution is long overdue in America
One side wants to bring back slavery, nazis, fascism, and women not being allowed to vote or own property.
The other side just wants healthcare and education.
The media thinks these two things are equal.
"Democracy" my ass lmao. You only have one choice.
A revolution is long overdue indeed.

I would never want to be a part of a revolution. I would only ask the same things the founding fathers fought for. Representation. Anyway you slice it, my voice will never be heard because I am not a part of the wealthiest people in this country.
No, I am only a part of the majority...
