That's a fair and reasonable discussion to have when it's clear that all parties are acting in good faith and agree that voting Dem is the best thing for our country, currently. I do have those discussions in some safely blue spaces.

Lemmy is not that space. If someone on Lemmy says "both sides suck" without very clear and specific caveats that the Republicans suck exponentially more, I think it's fair to assume they're spreading propaganda. Even with those caveats, it's not a discussion worth having because it will become a lodestone for propagandists.
