No, I have reached my mid-30s and have stopped falling for the 2 party fallacy, like I did when I was a kid.
I'm sorry you supported... lol, Ron Paul (your only political focus was on marijuana legalization, wasn't it?), but that doesn't invalidate the dire need to ebb the 2 increasingly unhinged fascist movements in America and find a new way.
A choice between civil war and genocide domestically vs world war and genocide abroad demands a third choice.
But the third choice isn't real so pick one of those. I too hail from '87 and it's kinda you're damned if you do damned if you don't. My goals are to set up a commune and disappear from society and hopefully fall off the grid with people I care about. Until then, though, kinda stuck with what we got.
The third party is 100% a real choice. We just need someone to step up.
Never has. Never will. Until you get FPTP removed.
Alright. I'll bite.
Is FPTP dragon across my face?
I think the flaw in one's reasoning is revealed in your dichotomy. What do you mean by civil war and genocide domestically? What do you mean by world War? For all intents, Trump is guaranteed to be worse in universally every aspect, foreign and domestic.
And you've yet to elucidate exactly how that third choice occurs when it's mathematically a given that a 3rd choice simply promotes the greater of two evils.
And nah, I was young and naive. Never liked pot. While I've always been supportive of legalization for criminal justice reform, I fell for the bullshit Libertarian idea of fiscal conservatism / social liberalism. I'm ashamed to say I read Atlas Shrugged, too.
