    The two parties help each other out all the time. The Democrats love when they get called socialists or communists, for example. It helps maintain the illusion of the whole thing (we can’t advocate for these social policies, voters don’t like socialism or communism so we have to be “reasonable”). I suspect this was all entirely intentional in some way, as it maintains this image of Democrats being “progressive” in some way when they don’t actually do jackshit.
