  • They don’t disappear. We just forget about them because the news cycles stop reporting on them, by design, to maintain the horse race of the duopoly. We can’t say we want another option for a political party, and then condemn that party when it’s not supported and doesn’t make an impact in elections. An alternative political party isn’t going to spontaneously appear with 30 million registered members. If we want a third party, we have to support it.

    The Green Party has been around since 1985. It’s the 4th largest political party in America behind the Libertarians. It has over 244,000 registered members.

    I’m not advocating that you should vote for the Green Party. I’m only explaining why AOC’s complaint is insufficient.
