    If everyone that says they hated the two party system would actually vote third party then we’d actually have a third party.

    Biden doesn’t deserve my vote and I live in a red state. I’d vote for Cornel West even if I lived in a purple state, however, because I’m done propping up the least worst candidates.

    Nether the dems not the republicans represent the working class and they can all get fucked.

      I get where you’re coming from, but a historic election like this is probably not the one for that action. It’s not run-of-the-mill “historic”, either.

      I agree, but lesser of two evils and all that. I’m Canadian so I don’t vote for either.

      We have our own FPTP problems, but at least with a huge section of the country (Quebec) always voting in their federal party it allows room for the NDP in the rest of Canada.

      Fuckin’ Trudeau ran on election reform then dropped it and legalized weed. So I have mixed feelings about the guy.

          That’s always how it is in a FPTP system. It was always going to be either the Conservatives or Liberals and the Conservatives keep offering laughably bad candidates. Although, as both those parties shift further right the NDP may have a chance in the distant future.

          All I’m saying is at least there’s room for other parties thanks to Quebec’s stubbornness. (I mean that in the most loving way)
