Na, this exact line of thinking is why we are stuck in a 2 party system where nothing ever changes and the rich get richer.

But go ahead, keep pretending that it’s only republicans who hate you. In reality both hate you, except the dems just fly a rainbow flag and pretend to give a fuck.

Good cop, bad cop is the oldest trick in the book and people like you actually believe the good cop is on your side.

But the fix to the 2 party system isn't not voting, the fix to the 2 party system is getting rid of fttp. You're just spouting republican propaganda that gets them in power fairly reliably.

You keep talking about republican propaganda, as if democrat propaganda doesn’t exist.

Leave that bs mentality on the front page of Reddit where it belongs.

Not saying it doesn't, but you're spreading a very specific type of republican propaganda that they've been using for a while now, and very effectively. It definitely helped get Trump elected.

Na, you are the one spreading propaganda at this point.

Sure. Tell more young people on the Internet that parties and voting don't matter so that republicans can get more power. Better off giving full control to the oligarchs instead of only most of the control.

Ok, and how does your way of thinking fix being stuck 2 party system where nothing ever changes and the rich get richer?

If you have a realistic plan for sistemic change sign me up, otherwise the only option we have in this pathetic excuse for a democracy is to keep voting for the lesser evil and against the fascists
