Both Sides Are Equivalent | Proxy

You’ll hear all the talking heads
Talk about how
Both sides are equivalent
Spreading the false idea
That the policies each side promotes
Are somehow the same
When even the slightest examination
Reveals that one side’s policies
Destroy all that is good
And the other’s try to
Help others
Fending off the opposition’s base instincts
The difference between living
In an unequal hell or
A civilized society
Glossed over by people
Who claim to know
What they’re talking about
