Completely new… seen partying with the existing cabal in 1990’s and also affiliated with the sex island pedophile ring that nobody ever got in trouble for.
The way the US democracy works, attempting this would be too dangerous i.e. either all your fellow voters agree with you or you lose. How sure are you about winning this?
I wonder if the people telling everyone that nobody else will vote third party has anything to do with people thinking nobody else will vote third party and then not voting 3rd party as a result.
No. It’s just a really bad idea to vote third party, because of the spoiler effect. A strong third party would only destroy the party it is more aligned with.
You realize this left vs. right alignment shit was created because the rich and powerful wants the regular poors to keep an us vs. them mindset so we’ll never leave this stupid 2 party system that only serves to benefit them.
Not a democracy… It’s a constitutional federal republic. There’s a difference.
If I vote like everyone else then there’s no point in voting at all, nothing will ever change either way.
It’s not about being sure, it’s about not voting for the same people who we know are corrupt or incompetent.
I just want a different political party to get on the ballet at least once, at this point I don’t even care which one. I’m just sick and tired of this bullshit.
A federal republic is a type of democracy. Often those that make this hard distinction are thinking republic vs direct democracy, which while accurate doesn’t capture the democracy most people are referring to when they say the US is a democracy. They mean the US is a modern liberal democracy, which it is, and has the constitutional federal republic style of government. I point this out not to nitpick, but because the right has used the argument that the US isn’t a democracy to justify eroding our rights.
I’ll gladly compromise as long as it means there’s more choices in the future.
This shit is like being vender locked where the only choice is between 2 really shit monopolies.
Can’t we just vote in someone completely new for once.
We actually did that recently. His name was Donald Trump.

Phew man what a savior of the country.
After we get rid of First Past the Post voting.
Ranked Choice Voting baby! It’ll never fucking happen because it would work.
No.

I didn’t even talk about left or right. Also the spoiler effect is just a consequence of the voting system.

Help get rid of First Past the Post voting, and your dream might become closer to a reality.
Thing is, you need to be able to compromise somewhat, when it comes to politics. And many aren’t ready for that.

If you so easily dismiss democracy you can easily dismiss the constitution also. Soon there will be no republic either.
