This is a truly stupid take. I'm not claiming either party is ideal, but one is actively trying to undermine democracy to stay in power while doing nothing with that power but pass laws and tax cuts that benefit only the richest of the rich. The fact I didn't name the party and you know exactly who I'm referring to proves the point.

The other party isn't great, and is represented by a range of people varying from corporate shills to people actually trying to do some good. But they can't do anything the corporate shills don't agree with because the other party is actively destructive and their voters would literally die if it bothered the other side.

The solution isn't to throw up our hands and declare them the same thing. It's to vote against the destructive party and vote in the primary for the non-corporate shills.
