    If we elect the right people we can make it the agenda. That’s a big ask yes, but it’s also why they don’t want us to vote.

      If people keep voting two party regime or don’t vote, the owners don’t care.

      Voting third party as protest vote is where it is at IMHO so maybe in 20 years there is a third option

      Ain’t American democracy grand?

        2 party sucks. But they are not the same. One offers some hope of change. Look at the recents changes to air travels the FTC did. https://www.transportation.gov/briefing-room/fact-sheet-biden-harris-administration-announces-rules-deliver-automatic-refunds-and

        They are consumer protections.

        Now imagine if we organized and voted in ppl like Bernie or AOC. We can achieve real change.

        I’m sorry but voting 3rd party without the math making sense or ranked choice voting, is largely a waste of a vote

              Good for you… Vast majority of people didn’t benefit from it though. It was a half baked measure with a few good thing for some people. But let’s not act like the reform was beneficial to anybody beyond industry and few peasants so they can screach how it was all worth it for them, fuck proper policy analysis 🤡

              We got the government we deserve I guess jfc

                  Forcing every peasant to buy their shiti product and provide shitier services all regulated by federal government to enable them to fuck you

                  JFC how naive is avg american nowadays
