There is only one party in the United States, the Property party…and it has two right wings: Republican and Democrat. Republicans are a bit stupider, more rigid, more doctrinaire in their laissez-faire capitalism than the Democrats, who are cuter, prettier, a bit more corrupt – until recently…and more willing than the Republicans to make small adjustments when the poor, the black, the anti-imperialists get out of hand. But, essentially, there is no difference between the two parties. That
The essence of the quoted perspective is that the political landscape in the United States is dominated by what the author refers to as the "Property party," consisting of two factions: the Republicans and the Democrats. Despite their surface-level differences, the two parties essentially serve the same interests, representing the wealthy and powerful. The Republicans are characterized as more rigid and ideological in their commitment to laissez-faire capitalism, while the Democrats are seen as more adaptable and aesthetically pleasing but equally corrupt.
This view suggests that both parties prioritize the interests of the elite, making minor adjustments to their policies as needed to quell public dissent, especially from marginalized groups. The implication is that true political change or representation for the average citizen is essentially absent, as both parties ultimately uphold the same economic and social hierarchies. This critique highlights the perceived futility of expecting significant differences in governance from either major political party.
