          We all want that, the difference is that we understand how this political system works well enough to know we can’t have it.

          If you’re advocating for overthrowing the government, dropping little internet comments isn’t how one does that thing.

          If you’re actually hoping to elect a third party president simply by helping them get more votes spread out across every district despite them having few to no reps in other branches of the federal government and hardly anyone in local governments, you have an inadequate understanding of the system you’re hoping to affect.

          If, on the other hand, you’re just using rhetorical gambits to discourage progressive voters in the upcoming election, I take back any implication that your comments are pointless or wrong. This is exactly how you’d go about that goal, great job.

            we understand how this political system works well enough to know we can’t have it

            I will say it:

            FUCK THAT.

            Can’t have healthcare.

            Can’t have social security.

            Can’t have minimum wage.

            Can’t vote for normal people.

            Can’t stop billionaires from taking everything.

            Can’t make anyone responsible.

            Can’t have anything, while understanding that the system is set up for you to fail, and you will defend it because otherwise the system fails.

            The system is failing right now on so many levels. The fascists taking over is the normal progression of the system, and I’m sick and tired of people saying ‘we cant change it, it will hurt more people’.

            Sick and vulnerable people are being held hostage to stop any meaningful change, despite them being fucked even now.

            Same with the retirements being held hostage to stop reforming the stock market.

            And I will say it again:

            FUCK THAT.

              Putting words in my mouth won’t change the mess we’ve got on our hands. We want those things and we can get them, but not immediately (absent a millions-strong general strike) and not without a fight (another Blair mountain, probably worse).

              I’m not trying to deter you. I’m talking about what’s in our way.

                that is what my grandfather says

                his grandfather is the one who repeated that line to him

                not repeating that line to my children

                  And the dipshits on the right listened for the last fifty years and got Roe overturned.

                  Giving up because you aren’t getting exactly what you want right now is how you lose everything.

          How does your viewpoint differ from a MAGA/QAnon supporter claiming leftists are being paid by George Soros to spread propaganda? Like suddenly now our political leaders are above reproach and any criticism must always be part of a coordinated smear campaign?

          I don’t particularly agree with the above commentor in this context, but both these candidates have a long list of terrible things they’ve done and we shouldn’t be trying to sweep it under the rug just because it’s “our” guy. That just makes you sound like a partisan sycophant just like the people doing mental gymnastics to defend Trump’s terrible actions.

            Russian & Chinese foreign influence is a well documented fact, almost every tech company publishes a transparency report on this, you can just look them up. These accounts almost exclusively push right wing politics.

            There is zero evidence of the opposite happening. That’s the difference. One is true and the other is false.

              Almost exclusively meaning sometimes they’ll pretend to be leftists that tell you not to vote for a liberal over a fascist.

              Yes, liberals suck, but fashes only deserve bashes.

      You’ve been a teenager who can’t vote and also someone who went to the mall in the past with a same sex partner and got dirty looks from older conservatives within the last few months. You live in a city with rolling blackouts in America.

      As a teenager below voting age you know groceries are a luxury now compared to the past. Everything leads back to third party voting with you, again a teenager below voting age who went to the mall with someone you were dating as a social activity.

      You are really bad at trolling.

        actually an adult who lived to the inevitable outcomes of the laws and policies set by politicians like Biden that were funded by donors like Trump
