    Yeah, I despise the two-party system. Protest voting won’t magically give us the democracy we deserve. It has to be done on a small scale, local and state level. It’s gotta be organized. Governors are particularly invulnerable to this two-party bullshit, and that is I believe why a few states have Ranked Choice Voting now.

      some of the founders were outspoken in their support of a two-party system. you don’t seem to know as much as you pretend.

      edit: or you’re lying.

        I’ll stop beating around the bush and say I think George Washington was lying. A few of our founding fathers had principles, but the most powerful of them were actually just reactionary elites using any narrative for power. So when he says don’t form a two party system, I think if he had the chance he would have done it himself.
