    No, actually, both sides are bad. American bipartism is a trap that only benefit the Epstein Class, who are both rep and dem. Destroy the dems, replace them with a true Left. Go for Mamdanis and such.

        The only way that happens is with a third option, otherwise dems and repubs will be happy to keep playing hotpotato literally until the end of time.

          Ok Cool, so while we’re working on reforming our voting system so third parties have a shot, why don’t we… Not let Republicans have any power by voting. You know, in the meantime.

            Not let Republicans have any power by voting.

            I must have missed the part where conservatives didn’t have any power for the past 200 years because people were voting.

            And in 200 more years people can say the same shit, while still choosing between two far right parties where one is a bit less evil and a bit slower in making shit worse, but we better not try a third option yet then either, or the more evil, worse faster party might win.

              Oh, don’t get it skewed, we should definitely work towards changing things outside of just voting, but we should also vote while we’re doing those other things.

            Before voting you must make sure to replace your dem candidates (so, collaborationists) with leftist ones, else no one will see the point in voting.

              So like, before we replace them, whole we’re organizing that, we should still not let Republicans take office, so we should definitely vote. If no one sees the point in voting then yeah, we should encourage them to vote

      mamdani is a release valve. His wife supports the isis regime in syria, and the man himself surrounds himself with zionists. He’s a liberal who belongs to a convenient identity category and that’s why he had big institutional backing. The guy is a substanceless brown-face for white people to vote for and feel like they are on the ‘right side’ of the palestinian genocide.

      free pre-k is great, but your country (and your taxes) enable genocide.
