Third parties are immediately quashed by the machine.
Like them or not, DSA candidates have the right of it; infiltrate the parties and effect changes from within. You cannot simply erase one of the two parties without a vast majority responding to the blatant power grab violently.
Unless you want a full blow violent revolution. In which case do you boo boo, but I would much rather a more peaceful solution for my children to witness.
I, for one, would return to protesting if it were a full blow revolution. 🤷🏼♂️
You for one, would continue doing nothing if a revolution happened.
You don't show on the front lines today, so you will continue to do effectively nothing to support the front lines in the future.
I show up to the ICE OUT protests daily, knowing my face has been recorded, and my identity is in a Palantir database.
If they want to come get me, they better be prepared to lose a minimum of 3 agents and a maximum of 16 before I stop using the training they, the military and boy scouts, gave me against them
The joke went right over your head, I presume? 🙆🏼♂️
Oh look, a badass.
