    Third parties didn’t give us the new deal. The irony is that you refuse to understand that.

    I guess a lot of others refuse to understand that too. Becaues I am not the only one voting third party.

    And democrats are so scared of that fact, they are trying to keep third-party candidates off the ballot.

      The third parties herein are deliberate spoilers for the Republicans. Why do you think west still running despite being on only 12 states ballots. Fucking Jill literally goes to events with Putin.

        It’s laughable how desperate you are to defend the duopoly’s stranglehold on our democracy. West and Stein are not the problem—it’s the system that keeps voices like theirs marginalized.

        Your attempt to paint them as pawns for Republicans is just another tactic to silence those who dare to challenge the status quo. If you’re so sure they’re irrelevant, why are you so worked up?

        Maybe because deep down, you know their message is a threat to the complacency you defend.

          I’m actually for ranked choice, instant runoff, etc. I would like to be able to vote for a non-mainstream candidate in plenty of cases. I am just not confused about how voting actually works today. West and Stein aren’t any more confused about how voting works than I am they are aware that the only possible effect they can have is to help Trump in 2024.

            Well I am not voting for West or Stein. So those are issues you would have to bring up with them directly.

            If you truly support ranked choice voting and breaking the duopoly, then you should understand that the fight starts with challenging the status quo, even if it’s uncomfortable.

            West and Stein know the system is rigged against them, but that doesn’t mean they should sit back and let it continue unchallenged.
