You have an interesting combination of sneering self-confidence and profound ignorance…. It’s very entertaining! Please keep going.

Because I think the US is self-destructing like so many other countries have over the generations, and that makes it a good time to talk about next steps?

“Making new parties” has no bearing on what Trump is doing. Your posts here honestly make it seem like you struggle the understand the meaning of all three of those words.

Well, I wasn't talking about what Trump was doing. I was talking about what can be put back together after the current system has finished exploding.

Ideally, a system that avoids the tribalistic polarizations that result from binary choices.

america actually has zero political parties by almost any definition used anywhere else on earth, and in fact political parties are extremely illegal

Well, like I said. . . not talking about the current setup. IMO, I wouldn't be surprised to see the US balkanize into a few different countries.

would love that unlimited balkanization on the first world 🔥🔥

1st, 2nd, 3rd world? Thanks for a blast from the 80s. Now, realize that if you think the US is all there is to the first world. . . you're an idiot.

you cannot really destroy a party because they mostly do not exist, and forming a new party is also mostly meaningless

Well, then I guess then your parties and government disappearing won't be too much of a bother for you.

the government does exist and have legal force, actually

Right, but like I said. . .I'm assuming that the US is self-destructing like we've seen so many others do over the decades. You seem to keep missing that.

if you had a point to make about the government as opposed to the parties i missed it completely

Yes, you do seem to have been rambling on on your own tangent in a few places.

dude this guy has been SO SO gracious to you, you have no idea. You should reread all his replies to you as if it was Yoda himself speaking to you, and then you should gift him a coupon for a nice dinner

Except he keeps babbling on about their current system, like it isn't falling to fascism, and will continue in it's present form.

if only you could be where I am, and see that the most obvious thing in the world is that you are the on who cannot stop from babbling on

you are a tar pit

Because I'm pondering what the US will be after it's gone through a period as a dictatorship?

for many reasons actually

(person who doesn't understand the system they're criticizing or the challenges it presents) folks, this isn't hard: just make everybody stop doing bad things, and do good things instead. (bowing) you're welcome

We de facto have one party, the white nationalist party, and then we have the de facto coalition party, which is “a combination of every regional party which all have the same name but not the same politics, other than not being the white nationalist party”. The latter is like 60+% of people.

The problem we have is that a lot of people just don’t pay any attention to it beyond the level of team sports and every few years they go vote for their team or maybe they stay home if they’re not feeling it. That’s pretty much it at the national level.
