Yep because allowing the DNC to blame third parties certainly doesn't create animosity towards third parties nor does it push the illusion that voting anything other than democrat or republican is handing the country over to your opponent.
Somebody doesn't know about the Socialist Revolution in Chile in the 70s... or the role the United States played in ending that.
Pretending that parliamentary systems aren't first past the vote is something else. They just happen to have a system where coalitions have a little more power. Definitely hasn't helped in France or the United Kingdom where the two major political parties continue to consolidate power.
Yes the Republican Party allowed themselves to be taken over since they believe anything for power which Trump is more than happy to oblige.
As I said before the Republican party did not take Trump seriously until it was too late and did not attempt to remove power from him. Where as the Democratic party actively stamps out Progressive politicians and policies.
Regardless of how other people feel I'm using this as an opportunity to talk about how the Democrats have failed us at every level politically and are now enabling the fascists take over of the United States and that it's time to abandon the Democrats and find a new party and a new type of political organization. Which is why I suggest talking to the DSA Or the psl or the FSRO.
Anything these guys teach you will be light years ahead of any political Theory you learn from a Democrat.
