    ahh yes… muhh team right, vote for my guy, trust me bro 🤡

    Anyway, the two party regime is the same guy, y’all can keep doing these mental gymnastics but people are taking notice. why keep doing the same thing and expect different result?

    You can keep voting for your “guy” while some will vote third party as protest vote to deny the regime legitimacy.

      Can you see that you’re arguing against fictitious strawmen? You seem to be operating under the delusion that for all the dumb normies who have “bought into” the existing two-party system, politics is just a game that they play without understanding. You’ve reduced them all to NPC’s who lack the capacity to reason; obviously their only motivation could be mindless conformity to their “team”.

      Is it your contention that it doesn’t matter what party controls the branches of government, because they’re both the same? While this is factually inaccurate, it would at least be in line with the actions you’re advocating. Speaking of which, how exactly do you imagine a “protest” vote would deny the subsequently elected government legitimacy? What force and effect do you foresee that action producing? Because anyone with a working knowledge of our electoral system can tell you that the only discernable result will be the empowerment of the minority party, which in this case seeks a fascist overthrow of our democratic system.

      What you’re doing here is applying shallow, childish logic to a complex and nuanced problem, while pretending to have some high-minded motivations which—if they exist at all—clearly haven’t been thought through.

        You are shilling for the status quo. I reject the status quo.

        People can make their own decisions.

      Once again, severe reading comprehension issues. Got it.

          You can keep wildly misrepresenting what people are saying all you want. You’re not convincing anyone of anything here.

            We really should push for better mental healthcare, thanks for highlighting this issue, sunzu!
