    and that is what the next generation will also say in both parties thus perpetuating the cycle of a singular two party authoritative system

      How do you think our system works, dude? Nobody here chooses to do it this way for fun. It’s a two party system. It’s rigged to be that way. Not our choice. Any other party aside from the GOP and Democrats is just an illusion. We don’t have a choice here.

      Really love it when self-proclaimed “experts” think they can criticize us and our country’s politics when they can’t even vote or even know how things actually work here.

        “It’s rigged”

        “we have no choice”

        “Don’t you dare vote for anyone else or you’re going to ruin everything!”

          Yes let’s pretend they didn’t sabotage and fuck over everyone who voted for Bernie. Not only did we not get shit, we also helped put Trump in power by voting who we did. What part of this don’t you get? Keep pretending our politics aren’t rigged, but I’m not so naive and clueless about it.

      Voting third party isn’t a reasonable option when one of the leading candidates is actively dismantling democracy. Voting for Biden is like saying “yes, I’d like to keep having a voice in my government”
