There is no legal enshrinement of a “two party system”. Whoever the public votes for wins. The public’s self-defeating mentality is the problem.
Not explicitly. Just effectively. Between first past the post, which naturally evolves into a two party system. And the electoral college which enshrines it. At the national level actual, independent 3rd parties are an impossibility. And they know it.
Theoretically matter could spontaneously coalesce into a Boltzmann brain before a 3rd party could win a national election.
this isn’t true.
FPTP doesn’t naturally evolve into a two-party system. Cultural predispositions cause that. The electoral college does not enshrine it, it - sometimes - hands the elector votes to the majority winner of the state, and some states even have legal pledges to follow other systems. There is no impossibility. I will repeat myself for the fiftieth time in this thread, THE PUBLIC’S SELF-DEFEATING MENTALITY IS THE PROBLEM. The public TELLS ITSELF a third party is an impossibility, the public DOESN’T VOTE FOR A THIRD PARTY. You will resign yourselves to slavery until you figure this out.
Duvegers law and people who actually study poly sci disagree. And I’m more inclined to believe someone with evidence and proof over someone like yourself. Who has nothing, spouting magical thinking BS.
“Duverger’s Law” (you misspelled it) is a principle, not some deterministic physical law. I studied polisci at college, thanks. Read your own link. First sentence - “TEND to emerge”. Not “always emerge”. There’s an entire section in the article named “Exceptions”. One of those exceptions is IN the U.S. Learn the difference between “tendencies” and “absolutely certain physical laws”, this is basic logic/math.
This kind of sloppy thinking is so common in the U.S., I swear to god, this is exactly what I’m talking about with the shitty education system kneecapping the democracy.
duverger’s law is no law, at all. it’s an undisprovable tautology.
