What if I'm a centrist insisting both sides are garbage?

Then you'll be down-voted because people are stupid and don't want to have an actual conversation about things. However, apparently trying to ask to have an actual conversation about things is now a Republican strategy, which is again exactly what the liberals are complaining about, and both of these idiotic stances (down-voting people when they're just trying to talk and then refusing to talk about things and on the other side, making talking about things a sorda political issue) is terrible. The Liberals shall come and droves and downvote you. Except that comment that I just said is now going to be interpreted as a Republican leaning stance. Common sense has been completely abandoned by both sides, not in its totality, but just enough so that there is a kind of metaphorical street fight and that there is mud slinging and that the general population has no idea how to actually solve any of these real-world problems that we are facing. Donald Trump is probably not going to be ejected from office as I think he should be. And, frankly speaking, I don't think that the Democrats have any reasonable candidate to run in the next election. On top of this, most of the Democrats are going to roll over an allow project 2025 to take hold because the Democrats don't really care. I mean, truly, you get them down into a room and I'm betting you that they don't really care. And the Republicans, they've all rolled over to Donald Trump's stances and now all we have is a bunch of far-right yahoos and a bunch of leftists who aren't really leftists (I.e. Give me more political donations, billion dollar corporations!!!)

But anyway, I'm sure that's going to be a lot of people who misinterpret my comments because, frankly speaking, most people are idiots.

My entire on a bridged point is thus. Both sides are garbage.

You're literally who the meme is about.

Oh it goes both ways then, cool. I'm okay with that.
