I'm not quite that pessimistic. People are starting to see the stupidity of the two-party death march.It will not cure anything really. Systems people come up with are always corrupt because they always involve some sort of power.
But it will be far better IMHO if it ever happens. Unlikely though, we have to force those in power to accept it and they have pretty successfully closed off all paths for the people to do so. That does not mean I do not think it is worth trying though. Nothing good comes easy.
.....Basically a libertarian can’t compromise
You're hilariously stupid. You just claimed that libertarians can't pick a position, now that they can't compromise. You just randomly mashing keys?Basically a libertarian can’t compromise
TBH, some of the more recent moves are extremely encouraging. Once the floodgates are open, it is much easier to move forward.I'm not quite that pessimistic. People are starting to see the stupidity of the two-party death march.
That's why we're working it from the ground up. DC will obviously be against it, but counties, states, party primary elections - are picking up on it all over the country with good results. The more people get used to it, the harder it will be for powers-that-be to scare everyone away from it. Then we can shoot for it nationally.
There is always a choice.Well it is true to some degree, especially when there’s but two choices. Voting for no one doesn’t help anyone
Can’t compromise . You should learn to readWhat point? You have yet to make a coherent point outside of the names of political parties exactly match their political ideology.
That was not pessimism, it is rank reality. Anyone looking for a 'cure' is always disappointed. You cannot, and should not be trying, cure human nature and human nature is to use power in a corrupt manner. Just make systems that are more resilient to human nature.I'm not quite that pessimistic.

You should learn to post the point BEFORE you claim that a previous post proves it....Can’t compromise . You should learn to read
Heh.. my first word choice there was 'cynical' rather than pessimistic. Should have gone with my first impulse.That was not pessimism, it is rank reality.

In general I like to avoid the idea of a fix more than an idea of improvement. The former is simply not a reality and the latter is what we are trying to accomplish.
Yes you can and help no one, not even yourself! Stupid IMOThere is always a choice.
I can choose to not vote. I can write in Mickey Mouse. I can vote for the fake libertarian party. I can crash my plane into a building.
The fact the these duopoly shits refuse to make decisions based on a set of clear, guiding principles on the proper role of government makes me hesitant to vote for any of them.
They are wrong. I have a choice and they MUST earn my vote.
Well it first has to be made like I did to make the next statement proves my point!You should learn to post the point BEFORE you claim that a previous post proves it....
Any pretense that any vaccine is 100% effective is silly.
Back to the concept of individuals being individual players who make their own choices regardless of political labels. Your statement that -many libertarians fell for the lesser evil would be more accurate if we substituted the word many with some, and the wording improved leaving out the phrase “fell for it”.Many libertarians fell for the lesser-of-two-evils conceit and now support Trump. They know they've abandoned their previous principles, and it gnaws at them, so they attack anyone who reminds them of that fact.
That last pic Sparky-standing with a small megaphone against a cold, dead wall- did that multiple times today! Lol
I could go with "some". I have no idea how many, but from experience on this board there are definitely "some".Back to the concept of individuals being individual players who make their own choices regardless of political labels.

I think Hillary and Trump were the two worst candidates our two-party shitshow has ever produced. The fact that anyone voted for either one of them makes me truly ashamed of my country, and shows just how broken things are.What I do agree with hands-down is that most voters did consider Hillary the absolute worst choice of all time! Whoops, personal bias showing but I embrace that one fully.
It depends. Did you consider yourself a libertarian before you voted for him?I have a different take about libertarians (generalizing) abandoned previous principles. I am wondering what principles I abandoned when I voted for Trump the second time around.
I'm with you on this one. Trump didn't start any new wars.3. Big war machine. Now here’s a good example where libertarians individually splinter off to decide. I do not support American corporations that seek profit via war, nor politicians who lace their own pockets from investing in war efforts. Trump was certainly not pro war. Biden? Who knows, but his handlers are idiots.
Thanks. You remind me that not all Trump supporters are insane.I will stop now to spare your eyes, but I have more if you choose to continue our discussion
No rational, responsible entity shares your attitude toward the Covid-19 vaccine. It is highly effective in reducing transmission, and hospitalization and death in those instances it is contracted.
You know that might be the common thread among libertarians -cynicism. Lord help people who lack the quality. Some of those characters with complete trust without evidence include some really good people with very good hearts, they’re just a little bit clueless lolHeh.. my first word choice there was 'cynical' rather than pessimistic. Should have gone with my first impulse.
