i honestly don't know how many times i have to repeat myself that the u.s. is not a two-party system but is already a multiparty system. you're just being deliberately obtuse ignoring other legitimate parties that are not republican or democrat. you're just mad that the republican and democrat parties have spent literal decades building foundations to have a platform and raise a ton of money to run candidates across the country. if you want other parties to do that, then you have to actually put in the fucking work.

if any of you actually took two seconds to study comparative politics (or just looked at a multiparty system in action), you'd recognize that every single one operates the same fucking way: through coalitions. there are usually two major opposing parties and if one can't win a majority, they work with other parties to create a fucking coalition party. you fucking dumbasses are so thick that you can't be bothered to see that that is exactly how it works in congress in the united states (and in all state legislatures). most independent politicians are gonna lean towards the left and libertarians are gonna lean to the right (until the republicans piss them off).

it isn't fucking rocket science. politics is pretty similar across the world. but every single country is just a little different. and it has to be. because every nation is unique. their way of government cannot be cookie cutter same.

the real problem facing the united states elections is two-fold: money in elections and voter suppression.

stop getting your fucking information from idiotic memes about european countries that are wildly racist and xenophobic.

#also all of you so desperately want to be like western european countries with parliamentary systems #and that just wouldn't work here #leftists get big mad when they're told they have to put in the work to actually build more parties if they don't like the dems #but i find leftists to be incredibly racist when they try and tear down the democratic party which as we know it *today* ...#was built by black women #black women are thee foundation of the democratic party #and leftists like to conveniently forget that part #AND ANOTHER THING: HOW DO YOU THINK COALITIONS ARE MADE? THROUGH COMPROMISE #which y'all morons think is a dirty word #but it's how things get done in the reAL WORLD #(like the libertarians in the mt leg stood with the mt dems when the mt gop started pulling all sorts of shenanigans)#(funny how that works)#god some of you need to take some remedial civics classes #and also my degree is in comparative politics so i know what i'm talking about #how you be saying this is a two party country when you're white saviour bernard is a fucking *independent*#(i mean he uses dem money and dem platform because he's too fucking lazy to actually do the work himself but that's typical of that man)#(BUT YOU CANNOT SAY IT'S A TWO PARTY SYSTEM WHEN HE IS LITERALLY NOT OF EITHER REPUBS OR DEMS)
