both parties ultimately stand for the same values

This is an extremely privileged take. Yes, both parties support corporations and capitalism. However, one party also supports the eradication of people they don't like. This is a very significant difference.

Its also an extremely privileged take to presume that financial destitution can't be just as crushing. We all face eradication, and trying to sideline economic issues for issues of human dignity will lose on both. It's divide and conquer politics. We are either unified, or we're not.
