Is it time for a legitimate third party?

[dblack]

What gets me about the two-parties badgering third party voters - it's almost like they'd rather we vote for their opposition instead. Like BL would respect me more if I voted for democrats than if I voted for libertarians, or Skylar would rather I vote Trump rather than libertarian. It's weird.

 

[Curried Goats]

But why is it different? It makes no sense at all that 90 plus percent of people think all members of congress suck but theirs.

First, we're just going to gloss over the fact that while you were arguing for more Freedom! you also advocated for restrictions on it? OK.

Why doesn't that make any sense? Also they don't necessarily have to think their guy is the best thing since sliced bread, just better than whoever their opponent was.

It is a purely partisan thing, they are voting for their party and not the person.

You keep talking about the parties like it's the end of the means but I think more people vote ideology and the party they think better represents that is the ends towards those means.

We have seen it a 10000 times on this forum....I would vote for a rock/dog/Russian/etc before I would vote for Dem/Repub.

Because they don't agree with the general Republican or Democratic party ideology.

I don't care who you vote for. I'm just amused why you all seem confused you get nowhere. It's lack of political support, Clowns.

you arguing for no freedom bitching at this dude. shut up already. Either you believe in freedom or you don't,

leave the dude alone already. It's his vote to do with it what he wants. fk I hate cucks like you.

Yep. It's not complicated.

 

[Harpy Eagle]

something a big waste of time, something putting us on the fast-track to bigger more powerful government, less freedom, higher taxes, more spending, more foreigners and socialism.

Once again you have just described both the Repubs and the Dems.

why do you care? what is it to you?

what restrictions am I advocating for?

 

[buttercup]

You mean a legitimate second party?

Yes, of course, but I don't think that will ever happen. Americans are too gullible and they keep on voting for crooks and frauds of the Uniparty. And as much as I hate to say this, I think our country is past the point of no return.

Freedom to do what, Moron?

Curried nailed it…Your 73 votes aren’t really going to change much either way…I’m just fascinated by people who think they’re doing something just and noble by effectively doing nothing at all and in most cases fucking themselves.

 

[Curried Goats]

Yep. It's not complicated.

It really isn't. So what are you all confused over?

 

[Curried Goats]

what restrictions am I advocating for?

The freedom for people to sit at whatever lunch counter they want.

You are SOOOO goddamned stupid. But, in part, you're right. Me voting for a third party likely won't change the outcome of the election. We'll get a shitty President either way. So, given that, I'm going to vote for a candidate I actually do believe it. Why not?

 

[Harpy Eagle]

No such freedom exist.

Every lunch counter out there has restrictions on who can sit at it and when.

 

[whitehall]

There are third parties. People just don't vote for them in any significant number.

What would the polities of a 'legitimate' third party be, specifically?

That there's no good answer to this question is why there's no 'legitimate' third party.

They are all "legitimate". The poster actually means that he wishes they were more popular because even though he is a loyal democrat he understands what a disaster Biden/Harris are but he is so filled with hatred for Trump that he can't bring himself to vote for a republican.

 

[BrokeLoser]

Once again you have just described both the Repubs and the Dems.

You keep saying that but only you and your 73 buddies believe it. I’m pretty sure that’s the problem, that’s why you’re off to a dark shithole, your grasp of reality is way off….you’re delusional.

and you voting for the duopoly is not going to change anything at all....yet you keep doing it.

 

[dblack]

Curried nailed it…

Yep. You guys agree on a lot more than you'll admit to. That's why I can't vote for either of your parties.

 

[jc456]

Freedom to do what, Moron?

read what you quoted from me.
