I vote more often than that and if more people did, society would be more aligned with that they want. But most don't, because stupid fucking morons like yourself convince them it doesn't matter.

Are you aware that not enough people vote 3rd party for a 3rd party to be viable?

Are you aware that no 3rd party is putting in the effort to make people want to vote for them?

Are you aware that it's possible to reform political parties, but not if we descend to deeply into actual fascism due to an actual fascist party being in control?

So wouldn't it make sense, in that scenario, to vote for a party that isn't actually fascist (despite what tankies believe) so that we can have a less oppressive situation that is more likely to foster the kind of change that could potentially make a 3rd party viable some day?

I mean, unless you want to become a historical figure by starting a violent revolution. For which I hope you have a post-war plan so things don't collapse even more.

If you dont try to build a 3rd party, they will never become viable

You cant reform a liberal imperialist party like the democrats who have a long history of pursuing imperialist capital goals. Its like saying "we will reform nazi party to be sympathetic to jews"

Have at it, champ. Maybe you should go talk to those 3rd parties and tell them to.....do something?

I guess in the meantime your goal is to whine about the only party that can win that isn't actually fascist. Yes, I know you think both are equally fascist. I don't care and am not responding to a stupid sentiment like that.

Even you know both parties are:

  1. Pro american hegemony
  2. White supremacist
  3. Zionist
  4. Capitalist
  5. Imperialist

The only thing they differ is on the culture war. There is not much difference if you really look at it

Maybe you should go talk to those 3rd parties and tell them to…do something?

I mean you guys call names to people who vote and organize for those parties, proves they are doing stuff for sure.
