Can’t you guys get neologisms and irony? I KNOW what is the original idiom. HOWEVER, I’m deliberately changing it to mean there isn’t even a simulacrum of difference between Democrats and Republicans. Ah, the eternal marvel of the English language: its breathtaking inability to stray from a pre-written script. No wonder it’s the language of contracts, with every clause so exquisitely, flawlessly delineated. Naturally, people then start behaving as if they’re perpetually executing contracts with one another, forever in hot pursuit of pecuniary advantage. And from that, of course, sprang Common Law, Capitalism, and Imperialism - what a coincidence. It’s just so delightfully easy to build colonies and murder on an industrial scale when the target is nothing more than a number. Precisely because they can’t think beyond greed and individualism, they end up so utterly, pathetically lost the moment they set foot in collectivist countries.

I will grant you that both parties serve monied interests and share a lot of the same agenda. However, one party has been working for generations to roll back rights for women, POC, LGBTQIA+ to the 1950s.
The other transforms these societal demands in woke-liberalism, erasing the class struggle component of feminism, anti-lgbtphobia, anti-rascism. Rendering these fights too individualized and inconsequential.
The Democrats don’t read Frantz Fanon and just skim through Angela Davis.
