    Nope, never 'fucking' people trying to change the broken system by establishing a third-party. I'll keep blaming people actually responsible.

    In a first-past-the-post voting system with winner-take-all representation, it’s literally impossible for a 3rd party to be elected to the presidency. If you’re really committed to changing that, you’d vote for the people who are more likely to enact ranked choice voting and proportional representation (regardless of party)… and only at the local/state level since that’s where voting laws and regulations are made. Voting 3rd party for president does nothing but dilute the vote of the intended opposition party. Greens dilute the Dem vote, Libertarians (both big and small) dilute the Republican vote. To pretend otherwise plays right into the game the two big parties have always played.

        There have been like 3 times at the national level in America where voting third party actually worked. It is very clearly a problem, but voting third party doesn't fix that problem.

        Fix the problem that makes a 2-party system the only viable option, then vote for third parties. Or stay home and drink or get high. The results for the political landscape will be much the same. Granted, at this point in the game, you're likely better off waiting for the collapse of America and putting something more effective in the new constitution.

                You’re right they are. So many that I think they feel the general public will stop paying attention. Even though some roadblocks to crazy town have been lifted by his own people hopefully this madness ends sooner rather than later.

                  Yes, we owe the Democrats our votes no matter what they do, or don't do.

                  I now realize that the Democratic party didn't fail their voters or America, we failed them.

                  Thank you for showing me the light.

                    I’m sure the Tories have floated this idea more than a couple of times.

                      Here is Fred Rogers explaining the need for public TV

                      These people are straight up evil. PBS has helped so many children, I cannot even imagine wanting to deprive kids of learning or empathy.

                              Donating to your local affiliate is good but I also recommend, if you can, to donate to other smaller affiliates too - especially the community public radio stations and ones not as focused on the news site of things.

                              Personally PBS, Dropout, Beacon, and Democracy Now are the only streaming services I pay for and don't pirate.

                                    And fuck everyone who encouraged not voting or voting third party. At least according to the principles they supposedly hold, they'd be even more culpable since they fucking knew what's at stake.
