    this is not accurate

    centrists trying to build a big tent for everyone are the pro rich and corporations that are voting against our interests

    the “big tent” is just there to fool people with bread and circuses and it has nothing of sustenance that will sustain the people

    the throwing your vote away and getting to pretend you hold some high ground (you don’t) is propaganda spread by both parties to keep the power structure intact and to help control the masses by tamping their expectations of leaders

    yes life is compromise and nobody gets exactly what they want, but everyone does not get a say in how we work to find a fair balance

    some people are hidden away in concrete zoos without adequate ac/heat usually in unsanitary conditions or they just have their votes taken away all together or some other way of quashing votes

    centrists are the right wing with sheep’s clothing on designed to give the illusion of choice

    the right wing billionaire class always wins and have succeeded at confusing most of the US public into a false dilemma and gets everything they want

    voting Democrat or Republican means we give away the opportunity of a third party and the ability to listen to outside voices that may contain a forest of solutions that were unseeable due to the two trees
