I did say "since 1986" but that wasn't exactly out of kindness either. Regardless, I don't think I was proving your point at all because despite their issues, Democrats are the only hope we have. Republicans hate us. There is no moral equivalency and the only people who say that are people of privilege whose lives aren't directly affected by the destruction that Republicans spread. We don't have that luxury. Their actions show it even if they're careful to not say it out loud most of the times. To them, we are not equals.
