This is true because we are not a democracy. We only pretend to be one.
You're a flawed democracy with an outdated election system. The FPTP one seat districts forces two party politics.
While that may be true, nothing will fix that in this upcoming election. Vote Biden, then set to work fixing our democracy.
Popping up every four years and complain about the two party system, only to disappear afterwards is never going to solve the problem.
I hate this line of thinking so much. Flawed democracies are still democracies. Democracy isn't a word that means "fair elections".
We're a republic.
Which is a type of democracy.
