    I remember meeting a man from Libya at an old job of mine. He was more supportive of Republicans which surprised me . (My initial thought was why would an Arab support Republicans.) He said that Democrats had a stronger tendency to invade other countries. He had a point in that Obama and Hilary absolutely brought upon a Libyan apocalypse but he totally ignored Reagan and both Bushes who are Republicans (who destroyed the Iraqi government).

    Though I should stop before it sounds like I’m “both sidings” again.

      That’s the thing, democrats and republicans are the same when it comes to many critical problems, stemming from both of them being parties of the rich. Accusations of "both sides"ing is used to shut down any discussions of how the system itself is rotten to the core. Yes, both parties aren’t the exact same but there are enough similarities to show that voting won’t be the solution for a lot of key issues.
