Average Americans are being priced out of democracy by both parties. The candidate for both will be who the wealthy pick, and everyone will have to vote if they want to keep who they hate most out of office.
If you’re wealthy there’s no way to lose, if you’re the other 99.9% you can’t win.
Regular people can’t out lobby Microsoft and Disney, and unless a progressive third party emerges the system will keep getting worse.

If a progressive third party emerges, they’ll split the vote with Democrats, making both of them weaker. That’ll just give every election to Republicans and make the country get worse even faster.
The only way to get progressive candidates is by moving the Overton window to the left, and the only way to do that is by voting for Democrats.
While political system is captured… I am talking about gen pop discourse. Vast majority got nothing to hide, it is convienient, poor people suck, shoulda worked harder, quit being poor, there is nothing can be, we just really don’t know.
This rhetoric is pathetic for any self respecting adult yet here we are.
Sure if everybody got educated about their lot in life they could theoretically vote in a third party but let’s be real here, we got some app to circle jerk for engagement slop that induces you to buy plastic shit to make feelz
Have you met our political system?
Primaries literally don’t have to be fair, because the results are nonbinding, the party can just pick someone else.
And the people in charge keep loosening regulations so they can get bigger donations.
They’re openly running a PAC that coordinates with Biden and the DNC that individuals can legally donate a million a year.
