But yeah, they are totally the same, right guys? RIGHT!?!
Either you’re stupid or you’re lying.
Where’s the lie?
Literally fucking half of the shit you attribute to democrats.
Stop racism in policing.
Start here. This is a fucking lie and you’re practically a nazi for whitewashing them
Its not a lie. The legal progress towards this has come from Democrats. Yeah, it’s not enough and it’s been too long coming. Still, look at which states passed laws on chokeholds and which states passed laws allowing people to run over protesters, then tell me there is no difference in the parties.
You’re too easily impressed with the most superficial bullshit possible. The difference you highlighted is purely symbolic on both sides. As if cops are restrained by the law in the first place. Both parties have the exact same policy on policing and your ‘good guys’ are almost exclusively the ones in charge of the cities that actually run those police departments. All they do is give them more funding. And to confound people like you they engage in ‘liberal box checking’ where they ‘do something’ that changes absolutely nothing structurally. And then you turn around and defend these murderers like they’re the good guys. You’re a boob.
Not allowing choke holds isn’t superficial. Body cams aren’t superficial. They cut down on police use of force and citizen complaints. They also cost money. Better trained police costs money. Sending out social workers with police on domestic calls costs money ,and makes a huge difference in the quality of policing.
The only substantial reduction in policing cost is cutting back on the drug war and most left leaning states are doing that. (Reducing numbers of police would do it but most states have similar per capita number of police as Europe).
There is no doubt we have a long way to go on police reform, but to say there has been no progress simply isn’t true.
I’m sorry but you’re extremely too credulous and unthinking.
I already explained why and how bans on chokeholds are superficial. Are your senses so dull that you didn’t notice or are you being deliberately dishonest and lazy by not addressing it?
Body cams are even more glaring an example. It’s extremely fucking common knowledge that they turn them off whenever they want. Do you think you’re being strategic by ignoring that fact? Because the effect in reality is it makes you sound like an idiot. Your entire premise is undermined.
You just straight up have no idea what’s happening in the world around you.

“More training costs money”

The fact that there are so many dislikes proves how propagandized the average American is. “How dare you call both sides the same” Well, they ojectively are pretty much the same with few exceptions.
Compare the last 6 months to the previous 4 years. You know they’re not.
People with the same goals can disagree on minor implementation details.
We’re talking concentration camp vs no concentration camp here. Child rapist vs no child rapist. International cooperation vs tariff chaos.
Biden couldn’t stop touching and kissing clearly uncomfortable, random kids in front of hundreds of cameras. He’s been accused of rape. Stop pretending we all live in your Marvel movie concept of the world.
DNC never sent DHS and ice to deport and create fake crimes against my Muslim friend for being an Iranian student in physics. But sure, both sides.
They sure aren’t doing anything about it either.
They did though, through the creation and expansion of the secure communities program.. It was attempted to be walked back via the PEP after Obama earned the “deporter in chief” moniker, but yes the DNC did, has and will continue to do so.
Their style is usually more “don’t make a scene” then “suns out, guns out” but the end result is ultimately the same.
Nah, they just committed genocide
Are you thinking of a different country
No
Thanks for pointing that out, I’ll be sure to vote Republican
Whataboutism
What a stupid comment. It’s REALISM. I am either going to vote Republican, Democrat, or not vote at all (same as voting third party).
Which one of these choices do you think makes the world a better place?
Still whataboutism. You bringing up Trump doesn’t change the fact that Democrats commited genocide

It was Slick Willie Clinton who changed regulation to allow misdemeanors to be treated the same as a felony for immigration purposes. Thus was born the idea of the “criminal immigrant”.
