This is the answer. If people want change, they need to get active and primary democrats with the candidates they want.
Wishcasting some kind of third party into existence is naive and the outcome is we get more Republicans in power and life gets remarkably shittier as a consequence.
If we somehow get ranked choice voting, it’d be different. But right now there is only 2 viable choices in the general. Do what you can for the primary and hopefully you feel better about voting in the general. Sitting out or voting third party is just helping conservatives and their agenda being waged on America.
I specifically didn’t say their own party. Although there’s something to be said for fighting for a 3 party system, it’s simply not practical given the structure of the constitution. The only way to have an effective 3+ party system is starting over from scratch. The USA would not survive such a ground-up overhaul.
