So, overcoming all that power and money enough to rewrite the system entirely is more plausible than convincing people you’re right? That makes sense to you?

Ive spoken to Americans who in good faith have spent their life choosing the lesser evil. By their own definition they’ve used the entirety of the elective power in a democracy to ensure evil is elected. It’s insane

It is unfortunately a requirement in a two party winner takes all system. We are going to need to change the winner takes all piece of the puzzle in as many places as possible in order to break that cycle, at which point third and fourth parties become more plausible.

How? I would love to hear some plans.

Still not answering the question. Just so you know, this is exactly why I don’t vote for progressives. Lots of weirdo conspiracy talk and no actual realistic victory plans.

Progressives are the only ones who are actually working toward achieving the things you appear to be stating you want achieved in your other comments

Yeah? What are they doing? Because they aren’t winning elections. Other than holding rallies, which they are good at, what else are they doing?

Who is this ‘they’ you are Walrusing about, in your mind? What’s your diagnosis. Awwwww I just keep voting in evil all my life and it’s the progressives fault for not being nice

If you want me to vote for progressives you have to give me a reason to. I’m not voting for people who don’t have a plan for victory. All I hear is criticism, no strategy.

Progressive politicians. I thought that was obvious from the exchange you can clearly read above.

How *the absolute fuck* do you plan on succeeding so you can actually make people’s lives better? Like, this century.

Don’t plan on succeeding. But it depressie me to see scolds such as you shutting on someone who might using nonsense reasoning that betray either a nativity or wilful ignorance of the reality of the oligarchy you live in

there is a corrupt twin party system designed to prevent policies in citizen’s interests v corporations, which is responsible for imprisoning more of its own citizens than any other country in my lifetime. It’s absurd and naive to reply ‘you just need to convince people’. onus is not on me to fix

Ahhhh - you're a lib that prefers the status quo of... fuck all. This is why the US is in the state it is in right now. Good job.

For the fifty millionth time. How are you going to overcome the political system with no money, power, or people who agree with you?

‘Convincing people you are right’ as a regular wealth individual is not a feasible path to election of anyone outside the parties in an environment where parties spend hundreds of millions of dollars on advertising, make the rules, and have generation ingrained power. It’s naive nonsense.

Ok now the other half. Where you, somehow, with no money or power ir apparently supporters who agree with you… Manage to overturn the government and rewrite all the political rules. How does that happen?

My friend this has happened hundreds or thousands of times on human history. You know what’s never happened? A ruling class of people’s voluntarily making life a little less imbalanced in their favour frontage benefit of the whole.
