    If people who posted this shit spent their time and energy during the primaries telling people it’s a dumb fuck decision to be voting for politicians who support genocide and blocking strikes we’d all be a lot better off. Those people are our biggest obstacle. We cannot mount a strategic offense against fascism with these people undermining our efforts in every primary. Regardless of our opinions on the success of third way politics it is time to admit it’s lost to Trump twice and something needs to change.

      Sorry bud. No matter how hard you want a 3rd party to be viable, it just ain’t so. Maybe you should talk to the 3rd parties that aren’t really doing much to become viable. Then you should help them by volunteering.

        Holy fucking shit… blaming the victims of a First-past-the-post electoral system? One that remains in effect in many blue states not under the control of Republicans? blue maga indeed.

        Looking forward to watching the democrats earn their incremental change in republican primaries when we are a one party government. 1 is only 1 less then 2 after all. A artificially low number of viable political parties seem to be okay right now with you, so dont forget to carry that with you into the future.

        My state is so fucked that for the senate race Republican and third parties are literally the only options. Although the third parties here are just as bad if not worse than the average Democrat.
