Comment on Are Americans Actually Idiots?
Mulligrubs@lemmy.world 5 days agoWhy vote for the pedophiles?
Vote Green, or Socialist, or Libertarian, or WHATEVER comes closest to what you think is right.
They say it’s only A or B because those are they options they have allowed you to have. But it’s not their call, and it’s not even their business. They don’t realize that third party votes influence the major parties (if they didn’t, it wouldn’t enrage them so much, now would it?).
Ds and Rs, worry about your own parties, get your own voters out. A lot of people hate both of you, and you’re going to have to let them go. You can’t force them to join your binary clown show.
The majority of voters are INDEPENDENTS (40%). Ds and Rs are now the minority (30% each). That’s what you get for ignoring voters for DECADES.

I think the problem is the voting system itself. first past the post highly enocurages a two party system. third parties will only rise when one of the two big parties does a major fuck up which, considering the pedophile president, is hard to do at this point.
