🚫 Both sides are equally bad.
✔️ Both sides are bad, but not remotely equally so.
Well yeah, if you're going to actually describe reality instead of erasing it, I'm on board
This is correct. Not everything has to be black and white
It's more of a light grey vs dark grey.
I would say medium-light grey and the deepest black imaginable
"Blacker than the blackest black" black?
I'd say that's more accurate.

Yeah, subby. We get it. "Both sides are bad." But one side is boring corporatists who don't give a crap and the other side is 100% concentrated evil fascists, authoritarians and religious nutjobs. And while that's a choice between the lesser of two evils, it's not a difficult one.
Corporations pay evil fascists to be evil fascist so you could choose "lesser evil"

2 party system is almost the same as 1 party dictatorship. You do need unlimited amount of parties to have any kind of democracy
We definitely don't have a two party system. Trump came in and invented a whole new party just like that. We have republicans, democrats and trumpers.
Is it a LEGALLY different party though?
If you want to get pedantic then the US has MANY different legal parties. Functionally only three that matter.
Still I think people should pay more attention on smaller parties. But nice to see a third big party forming

Minimum wage works. Here is an article from the german newspaper FAZ (leans economically right) that presents a study that shows the low income sector has shrunk since the implementation of minimum wages.
Germany before had one of the biggest low income sectors in the western world.
And no, the unemployment rate did not skyrocket. In fact, Germany is as close to full employment as it gets.
Germany is as close to full employment as it gets.
I wonder what they do in 21st century when everything is mechanized and automated like never before.

The democrats seem more... ribbed in this drawing.
This is incorrect and lazy.
