For tax purposes and to lobby for pet projects, yes they lobby both sides. Some corporations lobby for ideological issues. You will find that the vast majority of them get republican support. Plenty of not-for-profits lobby the left as well but you’re not buying their products and paying for ideologies you may not agree with.
No, what is an insult is the American electoral system where at the end of the day, your individual vote means nothing. Your so called representatives do not work for you. They only represent you only paper. They are there to enrich themselves through corporate dollar and stocks, because capitalism and individualism.
The issue with that sentiment is that a significant amount of the population simply can’t afford to be picky. They buy the cheapest available version of whatever they need because that’s what they can afford. All of the power of consumer choice is slowly being stripped away as more and more people are pushed into poverty, and that’s by design.
Tl;dr they all support both sides so no matter the election they always get what they want.

But it’s kind of an insult to everyone who fought to let you do that.

The trick is to pick the lesser of the two evils.
People here missing my point: vote with your wallets!
