I understand your point, sorry for a belaboured metaphor, it just helps me think.
Here's my counterpoint: If both options are the same outcome then what is there? Wait for violent, government-toppling civil war before anything changes? If it is institutionalized oppression, both-sides etc, then I can only assume you don't see the current administration as any different to the previous one, or any future DNC? If you think Biden was equivalent to Trump in terms of 'just a nice face on a chainsaw wielding madman', then you have no change in political stance now that Trump is in power and reshaping the constitution to allow indefinite rule? Both sides bad means it hasn't become worse since the party change, as it was always going to be this bad no matter who won?
Follow the logic, I think it sounds grossly myopic.
My solution is labor organization and eventually revolution, I'm a Communist. The Working Class should form its own party and build it up, like PSL, rather than rely on bourgeois parties that serve the same interests.
Trump and Biden/Harris both serve the same ruling class. Nothing really happens without the genuine approval of that class, opposition from the DNC towards the GOP is theatrical in nature and not material. The conditions change with time, but the conditions don't change as much with parties as they do as broader trends.
