Put simply, “BOTH SIDES” is motherfucking weak sauce.
This project is a response to the laziest pizzaburger of all political arguments: the dreaded “BOTH SIDES.”
You’ve heard about gerrymandering, yeah? It’s not an OK practice. And there have been times when Democrats have abused the system. But there is not a political equivalent to the Republican side. The Republican side has fully embraced gerrymandering as a cynical, baked-in national strategy to hold onto power, democracy be damned. It’s not about representation to them, it’s about cheating.
We’re about to enter into another seemingly yearslong slog of a presidential race where a politician is going up against a insurrectionist. Again, NOT THE SAME.
There will be assholes out there who can’t see the difference. Well ya know what? FUCK THEM. They are idiots. But they can’t be written off. Right now today, they have to be put in their place like the weak sauce motherfuckers they are.
We can’t let self-proclaimed lovers of pizzaburgers (which no one actually is) off the hook. They belong on the hook until they bleed out. They are what’s wrong with American politics. If the “BOTH SIDES” crowd didn’t exist neither would Donald Trump.
If you didn’t vote for Clinton in 2016 or Biden in 2020 then you voted for Trump, dipshit. Quit being dumb, America doesn’t have ranked choice voting. Unlike gender, our elections are BINARY.
So please, enjoy this nonsense of a project that was incredibly fun to make. In it you will learn the difference between an insurrection and the very real American issues our system as a whole is guilty of: no universal healthcare, defaulting to ruthless capitalism, ruining the planet, screwing workers, the problems with corporate media, national warmongering, etc.
But don’t you dare for one second think this really isn’t about gut punching anyone who doesn’t vote Democrat up and down the ballot since Republicans are backing a lying, cheating, insurrectionist snake oil salesman all wannabe GOPers seem to be very keen on emulating.
SO yeah, thanks for playing, comrade.
