US Elections 2 party system flawed and rigged

I agree. I've said it all along, too. And whether that's consciously their reason or not, it's also why there are more people who are independent in the US than enrolled in either the Democrat or Republican parties now. It's foolish to perpetuate the rigged system. But it's hard to get a sane, balanced, independent candidate front of the stage. So the independents keep ping ponging between the major party candidates, which results in the winning side thinking they have a real mandate for what they stand for when actually the don't, it's more about the lesser of evils. And the biggest fools in all of this are the ideological thumpers who keep buying the us vs them narratives and then backing the maniacs in their parties. The US will remain messed up until independent open minded moderate people can make it through the election guantlet and try to actually govern instead of just pillage and rob and impose. 0

Well the talk in Joe Rogan does mention how in Belgium (or some countries in Europe), they have as many as 11-17 parties running for President instead of america's 2. It's so naive to think that only 2 people are fit enough to cover all angles and all ends of the spectrum. It makes a lot more sense to have a wider range of opinions, voices, and perspectives. When you monopolize it to just 2 and everyone else is gagged from speaking or running, that's clearly a rigged system in which one power group runs the two sides at odds with one another when in reality, they are no different....they are both owned and run by the same agenda, manifesto, and status quo. Anyone that doesn't agree with either of these 2 sides is branded as illegitimate and all the other names they like to use to verbally abuse and mind control the masses. This goes straight back to simple childish ways like in elementary school. If you aint with the cool kids, than you all are losers. It's really too bad because the idea of America is amazing. The foundations of America is wonderful. What it used to stand for and represent is what the world needed. But sadly, corruption always takes over and endangers the ideals of what made america great, and turns it into one big fucking joke and game for the elites who run the show while enslaving the 98% to keep them dumb so that we keep them in power. |
