Also notice how both sides always have to be each others polar opposite. To give the illusion of choice, both sides disagree on everything, even in cases were one answer is the obvious choice.

This in contrast to direct democracy or a parliamentary system with dozens of different parties, were each of them have to shape their opinions based on what most people want, otherwise they'd get no votes.

Critics will claim that it leads to a situation were "all parties are practically the same", usually balanced in the middle somewhere, yet nobody has ever managed to explain why that is supposedly a bad thing.

I live in a parliamentary system and I haven't had a PM from outside of the Red/Blue parties in my entire lifetime.

Same here. Notice how none of them have had majority for many decades. That's the min difference from red jew vs blue jew. They are being held back from implementing their most stupid policies thanks to the parliament.

Immigration and green washing, nobody wants that, so now both red and blue have stopped bending over for the green like they used to. It's by no means a perfect system, but it is a lot more predictable and adopts to what the people want.
