Both-siderism has been a curse in the media. Both sides are equally bad... no. One party has totally gone off the rails and is now the mouthpiece of Moscow and white nationalists.

Both-siderism has fed the moron myth that the only REAL Americans are rural white people in the center of the country. All the places with large populations (and with diverse and more educated people) are dismissed as not genuine. Genuine Americans come in all colors, genders, and sexual orientations. Papers like the NYT have lost sight of that.
