Republicans

Republicans aren't stopping states like NY or CA from passing a living wage. Democrats are stopping that.

So sick of the straw men and blatant gaslighting coming from the democratic party. Anything to excuse why corporations keep getting their way with Dems. Meanwhile it takes 10 fucking years to increase the minimum wage in a blue state.

Exactly. Two party system is a scam.

No, one of the two parties makes posts like this to make stupid people say "both sides" whilst said party passes laws to suppress black votes, discriminate against gay folk, and ban abortions.

Quit trying to "both sides". It's what stupid people say.

But I'm not saying that. I'm saying that a two-party system is stupid. And I'm saying that as a citizen of a country that has 9 political parties. edit: to make it clear, if I'd be an American, I'd definitely vote for Dems, no question about it.
