so... third party this time?!?!
I wish I could say yes, and maybe between shit like this and Elon threatening Social Security there will be enough angry people to make a third party viable, but I'm not holding my breath on that. This country has been in love with binary choice since the beginning. Everything is black or white, good or evil, win or lose, right or wrong, us or them... You introduce any kind of nuance and people lose their fucking minds.
Start building one. Use the annuals and the biannual elections as proofs of concept. Right now I'm more open to voting 3rd party than ever before but I'm not wasting my vote
Nah. Just guns at this point.
