So um, the united states just started another war in the middle east. We're going to need a shit ton more memes to distract americans from the nightmare they are enduring. Thanks in advance...

3rd party...yes! Possible, not really. The two parties have a spot on the ballot, built in, automatically given. All others have to jump through each state's requirements to get on the state ballot. The most effective at this lately is the libertarian party. In the election before last, Jo Jorgenson was on the ballot in all 50, GO JO! Sadly, her media coverage was paltry at best. Most Americans didn't even know she was a realistic option. Finally, most Americans think that a vote for a 3rd party increases the chance of their less desirable major party winning. What they fail to realize is that, red or blue, the boot on your neck is the same boot, different shine.
This same conversation happened in 2016.
It will keep happening until the Duopoly is no longer in control.

Lets get something REAALLY FUGHIN STRAIGHT:
Conservatism DOES NOT DIE OFF.
AAAALLLLLL of the radical fascist right wing Nazi pundits and influencers are Millennials and younger, with a few GenXers scattered about.
Everyone SWORE that conservatism would die off with the Boomers, but that was 15 years ago. Its not gonna happen.
Every new generation votes more progressive leaning than the last.
So once the boomers are all gone, the Republican Party loses a shit load of control.
Regressives have tried to appeal to the incels their ideology creates, but it isn't enough to outpace the above trends.

wrote last edited by [email protected]A law was passed 30 years ago to ensure that the politically motivated only hear one ideology. The platforms have changed since then but the same people are in control of the messaging and censorship.

Indeed. None of the crazy things that happened in the last few months stopped. Unfortunately.

Nobody wants Iran with nukes.
Frankly, I do want Iran with nukes. Iran hasn't declared war on anyone for over 200 years. They're stuck in the same neighborhood as a rogue nuclear state that engages in frequent wars of expansionist conquest. The region is incredibly unstable precisely because there is no military counterbalance to Israel. Iran getting nuclear weapons would be an immense boon to peace and stability in the Middle East. I trust the Ayatollahs with nukes a lot more than I do the Israelis with them. At least the Iranians don't believe that their deity gave them the right to annex entire nations.

I think you just put your finger on exactly why the US doesn't want that to ever happen.

I dunno dude. Seems you wouldn't be getting this upset if my original comment weren't right on the mark. Also, you too ≠ you first.
Your comment isnt right on the mark; its frustrating because it's nihilist MAGA-style groupthink from an entire class of people who bitch about The Way Things Are then reject all who want to change it. It's like trying to get a sandlot baseball game started but every kid in the neighborhood just whines that baseball is stupid and pointless but bitches that there's nothing to do.

Americans.... The people who go to work every day and get paid shit for their work...enough to not complain too much but not enough to get a head. The people who get fixed incomed at 64 and then inflationed until the bank gets the house back. These people did not bomb Iran.
Orange turd and his team of evil fucks did.
Now, I'm actually neutral on this particular action. Nobody wants Iran with nukes. However please then do the same in NK and ruzzia.
If any of this does backfire, I just want you all to know that we just woke up to this shit just like everyone else. Just like when the orange turd invaded LA. We just woke up to this shit. Is it gonna be over in 3.5 more years?...god I so fucking hope so. The guy in coocoo unstable. Just like Kim and Putin, he should go to a retirement home and leave the rest of us alone.
Americans... also the people who overwhelmingly voted Orange Turd into power
