    Dems aren’t going to fix it and reps want to destroy it and aren’t going to vote for someone who isn’t a rep so let’s just kill the democratic party in the name of “something new” - oh look we’re a full on fascist nation now because dipshits like you convinced stupid people that going full fasc is better than small incremental progress.

    Like I get it, Dems suck they really do. But if you think destroying that party before republicans is going to result in improvment? Well let me make sure I stay far away from whatever you’re smoking cause it’s got you fucked up. Now go on, call me a centrist for being practical and not wanting to throw the country away, I you know you want to.

      I agree with you, and can’t understand how it is so hard for people to grasp. It is a popularity contest, a numbers game. If you give votes to a candidate who has less than 1% chance of winning the election, you’re basically not voting at all. Our election system does not allow for third parties to ever realistically win.

      Did the person you’re replying to at any point suggest voting for Republicans or for a third party?
