Acting like the DNC would ever move to the left (when their "left-totally-not-fascism" is bringing in that sweet sweet oil $$$$$)?

I genuinely do not see a day where enough of the boomers are out of office to fix this shit.

3rd party is how we end the MIC

Dont fall for the third Party rethoric.

Just swallow your pride and vote for something that does NOT help the fascists win.

Which is Biden.

I said the dems will never move to the left via electoralism, and without bottom up pressure, third party is a spearhead with no spear. You need to build up grassroots pressure from the bottom up for third party to ever be viable.

Mathematically, 3rd parties cannot work in the USA until we get rid of FPtP voting. The GOP outlaws other voting methods where they can. See Florida & Tennessee.

3rd Parties also don't seem to want to put in the work required at lower levels of governance to be taken seriously.

If you could prove Duverger's Law wrong, you'd be famous, but you can't, so you're just shouting into the ether instead.

Voting is a chess move, not a love letter.
