Wait so your plan is to wait for the republican party to become progressive?
Wait before voting 3rd party? Yes. Our voting system needs to change before that is a viable option.
What are you doing to help change it?
I am voting for people who support changing it. Ranked choice voting is definitely being pushed where I live, which would be great because many Democrats have to use their votes in a way that does not accurately represent their actual preferences.
Additionally, since Republicans have a closed primary (which is scummy as fuck) many Democrats have to register as Republican just to have any say in who will run our government.
This is an amazing joke .
Crazy how you're so wrong with your considerable experience seeing a joke in the mirror every day.
Dems and Reps aren't the only groups that can get things done, and I'm not talking about voting third party.
Electoralism is purely harm reduction for leftists, no leftist policy will get through in a 2-party Capitalist state. Instead, change must happen at the grassroots level.
Organize, unionize, protest, all that good stuff.
