Th USA has always been, since even before it's founding, a Christo-Fascist state. Even more to the point, North Atlantic fascism is inherently Christian, so what purpose does the Christo prefix serve?
Since the Europeans came to this land, they have used Christianity as their rationale for mass murder, mass rape, child separation, castration, starvation, slave labor, concentration camps, death camps, environmental devastation, strictural misogyny, structural racism, all out war, religious persecution, mutilation, human medical experimentation, and eugenics. I probably missed a few.
Ruth Bader Ginsberg, paragon of blue virtue, wrote a majority opinion establishing the Doctrine of Discovery as the legal basis for the country. The Doctrine of Discovery is part and parcel of the white patriarchal religious decrees that also directed Europeans to kill most of the brown people they met, enslave the rest, break their minds and bodies, forcibly breed them closer to whiteness, and destroy every remnant of their culture even those parts that are carried in the mind.
So when we say the Dems are the same as the Rs, we're serious. They both oversee and maintain the pinnacle of the North Atlantic fascist project, which is patriarchal white Christian fascism, the only type of fascism that has existed in the Euro-centric world (e.g. all of the Western hemisphere, all of Europe, and all of the European colonies globally).
The Ds and the Rs hold rhetorically different positions, and they take some actions to virtue signal in order to provide cover for their rhetoric. But Trump used Title 42 to deny asylum and put people in concentration camps, then Biden said this is bad and stopped doing it to unaccompanied minors, but increased total enforcement by multiples.
The Ds are not a counter weight to fascism. They are collaborators
