    I have a fantasy where an independent candidate wins after thoroughly clowning both of them and pointing out terrible they both are. It brings on a wave of change and we end up with a strong third party.

    I’m tired of every little thing being black or white, red vs blue, good and evil, heads or tails. Are you Republican or Democrat? Do you support Palestine or Israel? Are you anti-gun/vax/abortion/gay or pro?

    Seems like everything is framed like this to put us into buckets and turn the buckets against eachother while the propaganda machine starts churning.

      Literally 2016. And the third party is the maga tumor of the GOP. 2017-2020 is what happens when voters give up and vote for a populist promising to upend the system
