Nah.
Personally, I'm someone who accepts that for the foreseeable future only two parties matter and has been paying attention for multiple decades and actually bothered to look up both party's voting history and know, as a fact, that Dems frequently vote in favor of the middle/lower classes, that our economy is always healthier under them, and that our rights are more secure.
So when it comes down to voting I always champion them because the only other viable option is fucking awful in comparison and I'm not stupid enough to waste my vote on a fantasy scenario that simply won't happen.
So how do you make something happen if every person just says nah it can't happen?
I'm pretty sure every major invention and advancement came because people said it can happen
No one thought the divine right of kings would end. But people got mad and changed it. It's not even like we don't have examples of better systems running concurrently with us. Having multiple parties is not that strange, almost every civilized country has it.
So if you keep sitting there saying this is the way it's always been, so I won't change, then yell st people trying to make change, you're just being one of those people who hold everyone else back.
Now is the time. We've been selling this two party, lesser evil thing, my entire life. If you never make the leap you never get change.
Ok cool, except I'm not one.
Why would you even bother posting this dipshit response?
You've added nothing to the conversation other than to confirm you're incapable of understanding basic concepts.
Posting the words "blue maga" in and of itself is a condemnation of your lack of intelligence.
