Im not offended as much as I am disappointed in the Democrat party, why aren't they as cool as the Republican say they are. Whenever Trump calls them "far left communists" I think "damn I wish", instead they're boring center right liberals. Also I was promised by Trump that the Democrats would end capitalism, kill capitalists, instiute a worker owned economy, open the borders to immigration, enforce Trans rights, promote actual diversity, and unify the left under the red banner.

Dems are as cool as republicans because they're the same thing. The dems aren't going to call republicans fascist because the dems share all the same symptoms. They're not going to call out the republicans for supporting genocide because they also support genocide. They're not going to call out republicans on supporting the prison state because dems also support the prison state. The dems aren't going to criticize the republicans for serving capital because the dems serve capital. Etc.

You gotta realize these politicians are agreeing on much much more than they disagree. It's what's not debated that's most important.

It's worse than that, Dems today are literally more right wing than Richard Nixon. Nixon literally wanted Federal universal healthcare at one point, started the EPA and expanded welfare.
