giving a poo poo about bipartisan politics is literally a trap meant to sap energy that could go towards organizing local efforts that could change things on a small scale and work towards greater and better things by redirecting that energy towards picking between one of two rapists

and the worst part is that it actually works

The only people removing the Green party is the Green party for not following the rules or paying something on time or giving enough of a gently caress to actually get on the ballot themselves.

It’s almost like they don’t expect to win but do intend to collect some donations.

a really good lesson to learn from the past four years would be that the letter of the law doesn't matter, and only when you actually enforce it does it have any meaningful impact. having a bunch of regulation to stop any old dipshit from running in elections makes sense, sure, so you don't have your entire political process gummed up with idiots spamming it just to keep it from working, but strictly enforcing it to stop long standing political parties from getting on a ballot to try and gain votes for your own party is no different from republicans ignoring any of donald's illegal activities in office. it's blatant corruption and defending it makes you no different from the nazis.

Counterpoint: If they can’t navigate very basic bureaucracy, how are they expected to seriously function in government?

it's not very basic, by design. in fact it's made overly complicated by the two ruling parties spread across 50 states all with differing mechanisms to encourage nobody else to be able to take power away from them. you think that's a good thing?

Did you even watch the debate? (No, of course not)

If you had, you would know Biden specifically said no one would be building new coal or oil fueled power plants in the US because he intends to set incentives toward less polluting alternatives. But sure, talk more stupid nonsense made up out of your own rear end

biden also said that his stance on the issue is that you should GO VOTE! just vote! be sure to vote

This is the worst post in awhile. Militia groups are growing because a segment of Americans are violent racists, you loving moron, and the President is giving them a loving platform and cheering them on. Stop going to bat to defend literal anti-Semites and Nazis you dipshit.

uh, did you even watch the debate? biden said that racism doesn't exist anymore

Obama and Clinton were term limited. They were both wildly popular and would have been elected for third terms given the chance. There's no such thing as "ineffectual centrism." Centrism wins 2nd terms.

i wish the democrat party could just do a monarchy already so i could stop thinking about politics and toil happily in my factories for them

There's nothing but risk in your only "card" being 'hope Biden loses.' If Biden wins, and protest/third party voting is low, how does that help progressive politics again?

I see some NoJoes on the forum as preparing to kick themselves in the rear end.

you seem to think progressive policy can only exist and proceed within the framework of the broken US system
