      I’m not american. Do you realize they only have two parties? Don’t come back at me with a whattabout third party unless you include some data about independant’s visibility, funding, and results from their recent election.

        I put my cart before the horse and its not moving at all!

        It’s kind of weird to make demands about visibility or funding or votes when the way a party gets that is by… Getting support.
        The way of breaking up a duopoly is by supporting a third party. How do you think a party gets votes if not by people voting for them? How does a party get funding or visibility if people don’t fund it or agitate for it?

        Do you look at bags of flour and expect them to spontaneously turn into cakes?

          None of that’s happened yet so they should take a small amount of time to vote for the lesser of two evils then get their ass to work on doing the things you’ve described so next election they have another choice.

          I don’t start trying to bake a cake if I know I don’t have any flour.

              I agree with that too, what the usa is doing to the people of Venezuela is repugnant. Filibustering is an action for the elected officials whom I don’t have any patience for. My comments were intended to show some grace and sympathy for the american general public who are relentlessly propogandized and walked over.

            You seem to believe flour spontaneusly appears and if it doesn’t we should all just eat shit forever and nobody should try to bake a cake with whatever flour is available because the cake won’t be big enough for your liking, so everyone should just wait until enough flour spontaneusly appears and then wait for that flour to coalesce into a cake and then we can talk about maybe not eating shit.

            You going “nuh uh” about believing cakes materialise out of nowhere and then going on to demand a cake materialises out of nowhere forced me to really stretch the analogy.

        You types are incredible at hallucinating straw men. You should turn your creative energies towards creating art, rather than making up something noone is saying.
