    because idk if you’ve been watching but we’re perilously close to having a 1 party system.

    THAT IS WHY WE’RE SAYING 3RD PARTY BAD

    This is NOT the time. Just shut up about 3rd parties. The debates and discussions are still perfectly valid in 3 months, let’s talk about it then.

      “Now” is the only time to educate people about how the voting system needs to change and the “Less parties more good” mantra is the stupidest shit I’ve ever seen. The problem has a name and its called the “spoiler effect”.

      People talk about these issues during political season or they don’t talk about them. Quit trying to solve a short term problem with a long term problem.
