    What we have is 2 corporate owned parties that will do everything in their power to keep things the same. There is no reforming a corrupt system

      What you have is rapidly encroaching fascism. What you need is any solution that gets you out of that.

      You’re not looking for ideal. You’re looking for workable. You’re going to have a lot more success pushing forward leftist candidates in a party that already has an established base of support than you are in trying to somehow build sufficient momentum for a viable third party in a country that has basically never had viable third parties.

        No one that’s perceived as a threat to the current system will never be allowed any form of power within the system. Voting within the system rules is a setup for failure.

          Cool, have fun twiddling your thumbs while you wait for the rapture - sorry, the revolution - and the world burns down around you.
