Honestly, I read this thread and can't comprehend how a civilization as advanced as the United States of America thinks that defending a binary choice of democracy is a good thing to do... It's impossible to represent a country with a few million people like that, imagine ~300M. Anyway, keep going at each other's throats for your party color... smh.

Neither party will ever willingly give up the two party system, as they both benefit from it. At some point Americans need to start backing third parties or everything will just continue to go in circles indefinitely.
That, and do some non-electoral things if you're picking up what i'm putting down
It's kind of why we need Ranked Choice Voting.
i live somewhere with mandatory voting, and have looked into places with ranked choice. it doesnt do much.
the problem is capitalism and the rich's interests being paid for instead of ours. not how the ballots are made or counted.

But their tolerance for making you suffer differs significantly.
Finally someone who speaks the truth, however humans are a lost case, you can't un-slave mentality without changing the people.
