If there was actual left, there would be health care already. Instead there are billionaires.
This is the scene that plays in my head whenever people talk about how great Hamilton is. I can’t help it.
i agree with the rhetorical goals of this meme, but it does its job poorly.
some better options:
-
the right yawns when kids get shot
-
the left seeks to put in place bare minimum common sense gun laws
-
the left wants healthcare to be a human right
-
the right wants healthcare to be privatized for the benefit of investors
-
the right wants trans people, an incredibly small fraction of the population, to be harassed, abused, and murdered
-
the left doesn’t want that
-
the right is actively looking to get a national ban on abortion
-
the left supports a woman’s bodily autonomy, and recognizes that abortion can also be a life saving procedure but that such decisions should remain between a pregnant person and their doctor
and one very important and fucking atrocity of a similarity between the parties that will be used as a “gotcha” to “prove” all of the left/progressives are a poisoned well:
- Republicans are Zionists and support an active genocide
- Democrats are Zionists and support an active genocide
-
democrats are not leftists, and havent really helped with healthcare in the grand scheme of things
Centrists do tend to abandon rhyme schemes when rapping.
Yes, the left wants you to have health care, but Democrats are not of the left. They are just right light.
I laughed way too hard at this. Please OP more.
Liberals use the Boogeyman of the ignorable "Russian troll" to protect themselves of criticism of the Democratic Party the same way the Republican Party uses "Youth Snowflake".
It's an easy out to pretend that anyone "reasonable" wouldn't say anything that makes you think the party isn't doing enough and hurts your sensibilities of good.
Once again the moderate upper middle class asking that nothing change until they are done being happy because it makes it easier to ignore the cries of those suffering.
Neat.
Snowball "Sabo" Two in the middle panel tho
Radical.
As per moderator request, a unique comment for you. Enjoy.
Typically, when I encounter the phrase "both sides are the same," it's often from a perspective aligned with blue conservatism, aimed at discrediting critiques of the Democratic party. While it's true that both sides have elements of capitalism and conservatism, there are distinct differences between them. Embracing these differences is crucial. Instead of dismissing critics, inviting them into the political process can lead to valuable insights and solutions. Transitioning from the first-past-the-post voting system allows for more accurate representation of voters' preferences and mitigates the spoiler effect. Electoral reform at the state level is feasible, as demonstrated by Maine and Alaska. However, some Republican-led states are attempting to hinder alternative electoral systems. counterproductive to adopt the same voting systems preferred by Republicans. Embracing more political parties enhances representation and engagement in the electoral process, benefiting both citizens and the Democratic party. Increasing voter participation translates to more Democratic votes. The evidence supports the urgency of electoral reform, which should be a top priority for Democrats in every state. Launching campaigns for change at the state level can pressure representatives to embrace innovative ideas and provide better representation for constituents. Excuses shouldn't hinder our pursuit of the best possible representation.

Cheered on by squatting, fake-Adidas-wearing troll farm shitheads in Krasnoyarsk with rotten teeth, meth-and-vodka wages, and no purpose existing but as parasites on the rest of humanity.
Cringe meme
Left party? Where is it?? Are you talking about the narcoleptic grampa who loves to bomb kids? boi oh boi, you guys live in fairyland…
They're not on the right.... They're aggressive capitalists. They want you to have healthcare that you pay for.
They want someone to make a profit off of it. If it's socialized "single payer" healthcare like other first world countries, then "the government" will have nearly unlimited power to basically dictate what procedures cost, which will impact the profits of private hospitals, doctors, etc. (Nurses get fucked regardless for wages, so I'm not going to touch that topic).
The whole healthcare machine, the one that "provides" healthcare as a means to make profit, would basically collapse under a single payer healthcare system. Getting a government funded system, like "Obamacare" in the mix is a "slippery slope" towards a single payer system, which the ruling class would "suffer" for since they have a nontrivial amount of money tied up in investments with insurance, hospitals, etc. And all those dividends would evaporate if the system even slightly went towards a single payer system.
The ruling class has convinced their brain-dead followers that "the libs" want them to pay for other people's healthcare, and thus those people don't pay for their own, except they do. And the "what do I get out of it" mentality kicks into high gear to basically turn them against the idea of helping anyone, at any time, for any reason.
An actual conservative would be asking about how to fund such a system, so that the budget doesn't fly out of control due to unchecked healthcare spending. A liberal would say to go ahead and give it to everyone and we'll figure out the details on how to pay it later. People need it now and they're suffering without it, so let's put everyone on the same playing field first.
A communist would want the entire system to be annexed, owned, and operated by the state/government, which is acting on behalf of and in the best interest of the people, spoiler for the Americans, you elect your government, they don't act in your best interest; they act in the best interest of whomever is paying them the most, aka, the rulers of the USA, who are aggressively capitalist because it's made each and every one of them rich beyond anyone's imagining.
The whole thing is stupid. The people on the right have their heads shoved so far up the assess of people who don't give any shits about them, that they haven't seen daylight in years. They're constantly rage baited into thinking that someone is going to get a leg up on them because of some handout, whether it's a real cash handout or just one that they think is a handout.
Everyone else is looking for basic fucking rights to live and continue to exist with all the rights and freedoms as everybody. Then bodily autonomy gets ripped away from anyone with a uterus, and if you want to get married, it has to be to someone whom the state deems is an appropriate person for you to marry. If you want to parade down the boardwalk showing pride in who you are, well, that's not right, THINK OF THE CHILDREN!!11
I'm tired of hearing about these douchebags that only give a shit about something if some rich asshole tells them to. If you're a conservative, ask yourself, what fucking business is it of yours to tell someone else who they can love? What fucking problem do you have with your neighbor getting "free" treatment for their possibly fatal medical issues? If it's only because someone told you to give a shit about it, maybe rethink your entire life because nobody on the other side is saying you can't get married to whom you love, or get medical care, paid or not, to take care of yourself when you're diagnosed with stage four cancer, Sarah. Go fuck yourself and stop trying to fuck everyone else with your pathetic self absorbed bullshit.
I've been having a rough week. I apologized for swearing so much.
What left? lmao Besides, both sides are ultimately bought and paid for the same interest groups and billionaires. The acts of individuals on the ground have little to do with the actual policies being passed. The only difference is that the democrats won't call you a slur while they fuck you over. It's not centrist to recognize the current state of affairs within American politics. Biden made tons of promises he never acted on. We will never have any real advancement until something fundamentally changes.
Bro real shit just don't pay your medical bills. They literally cannot make you pay them, and they are used to insurance companies not paying the full price, so they are already prepared to write it off as a tax loss. You give everyone free healthcare and people will be going to the ER for allergies and it will slow down the entire medical system. You needn't look farther than Canada. At least this way everyone can be seen in a timely manner
Can we stop with these unfunny strawman arguments. This echo chamber crap regardless of your left or right, y'all do the exact same memes and none are ever as witty or funny as the creator thinks.
Ah yes the down votes. This is why we can't have nice things. Continue the circle jerk in the echo chamber, I'm sure it'll definitely make a difference as opposed to discussions and change.
They want you to have paid healthcare to protect their lobbyists' profits.
Unless you fall under medicare or medicaid, have fun paying insane insurance costs to cover your medical bills because the "left" is too busy using all their budget to fund a genocide.
Christ. Let go of the fucking j6 shit. It won't win you anything. You can't use something that only you see as a lever. It's just a plank of wood with no fulcrum.
"Both sides" has to do with theory of power. They have different policies, but both think they own us all the same.
Coup
2020 Election was clearly stolen. Calling J6 a "coup" or "insurrection" is the hoax of the century. Just look at the footage they don't want you to see of DC police escorting Jacob Chansley through the building. Or Ray Epps shouting, "We need to go IN to the capital." And running free while thousands are locked up as political prisoners.
Let's just completely forget about the "Summer of love" in 2020 with all of the "mostly peaceful protests" and George Soros attorneys refusing to prosecute while innocent people are killed, and buildings burned and looted all over the country.
Healthcare
When we decided to subsidize education with tax dollars prices skyrocketed, and quality went down.
Same story with Healthcare. Both are bureaucratic nightmares.
Both sides are the same
The House voted on Wednesday to pass the bipartisan Antisemitism Awareness Act. Completely gutting your 1st Amendment freedom of speech. The House vote was 320 to 91 with 70 Democrats and 21 Republicans voting against the bill. The politicians in this country are openly betraying you. It doesn't matter left or right. They're not working for you. They're bought and paid for by lobbying money.
