Democracy is when you vote between red man and blue man, both of whom have the same policies.

Though, in fairness, red man is actively hostile to LGBT people, migrants, and women whereas blue man is content to let LGBT people, migrants, and women suffer via apathetic neglect instead.

Truly a vibrant political system.
