The Republican party is like a father who’s whipping you with a belt & the Democratic Party like a mother who’s so upset about it and she’s going to smother you with kisses & give you milk & cookies when the whipping is over. Which one do you think you’d grow up to be angrier at?

Yeah I feel so showered by the endless wars, lack of climate action, healthcare, criminal justice reform and infrastructure renewal aka my kisses and milk and cookies right now with a side of big money 🥰

Except the mom doesn’t do any of that. Instead, she shushes your crying, tells you not to bleed on your father’s carpet, shrugs and whispers “Now really isn’t the right time to talk to him.”

Both, the father that was beating me and the mother that didn't get us out of that situation.
