How? When did this happen? It's filled with cherry-picked straw-men and simply awkward ad hominems.

Why are both sides of the political fence simply awful? I'm not exactly thrilled about supporting one side or another.

My theory is that it's become intentional, showing "both sides of the political fence simply awful" is really "politics is simply awful." It's understandable to not support one side over the other since both are pretty similar in order to "be inclusive," so I wouldn't worry about it too much.

The party system itself (at least in the US, can't say for certain how it is elsewhere) is mainly to simplify getting votes on a quid pro quo basis; it'd be really silly to, for example, simply vote no on a bill to repair a major highway that everybody agrees on, but one party wants to tack on an addendum to increase spending on public education and the other party may only agree to it if this other addendum which increases spending on defense is approved, and so on and so forth. The US is less a democratic republic and effectively more a constitutional financial oligarchy.
