    Broseph, this is word salad.

    To meet your vernacular:

    We both go to an Atlantic city casino, each cash 500 bucks into chips.

    We hit the first rouilette table.

    You tell me “so you bet black or red, one has got to win, one has got to lose. That’s the game”.

    I watch you play.

    You bet black. Small bets but your civic duty makes you keep 5 on black.

    You keep losing.

    I talk you away at the table when you have 25 bucks in chips left.

    I tell you it only hit 0 or 00 for 12 whole minutes.

    You kept 5 on black for those 12 minutes (except the 3 you switched up to red).

    There were magnets in the ball and the 0/00 slots. Powerful ones. But you insisted “black is due”. For 12 minutes and 475 dollars.

    Now I am left to console you and tell you to save your chips to pay for your drinks…

    This is the 2 party system.

    Stop voting for them.

      yes

      stop voting

      not voting doesn’t stop the game… not voting ensures someone else bet for you

      stop talking analogies; they’re all wrong… it’s a damn simple concept

      I am not super familiar with roulettes beyond betting on a color, so I’m completely lost here. You had me until after the $25 remaining bit. I think you’re describing the gambler’s fallacy though? And that’s not a good analogy for a two party system either.

      I see it like we get $500 in chips at the casino for free, but they have no monetary value outside of the casino. So if you leave without cashing out (which requires a > $500 total value), there’s no real benefit.
