        Sorry you’re right, it’s a fundamental law of the universe that Americans have no options besides Democrat/Republican.

            Oh no, I very much agree with them.

            There’s literally zero other options isn’t there?

              You’re the one that said there’s other options.
              We’re all waiting on you to name them.

                You’re the ones telling me there isn’t.

                Am I not to accept what you’re saying?

                  What? That’s stupid.
                  Finish your sentence, who are the other options?

                  You’ve always had other options.

                  Who?

                  I would also like to know what other option there is that has a viable chance at getting at least a plurality of the votes. Maybe I will vote for them. Maybe we all will if you tell us who it is.

                    Ah that ol’ catch 22.

                    Won’t vote for a party until they’re viable, but they’ll never be viable because you’ll never vote for them.

      I would love to hear them. I’ve voted third party for president in every election I’ve been eligible to, purely as a protest vote (and because my California vote means essentially nothing.) But if everyone with the brains to do so did so it would only result in us splitting the left and waltzing the fascists who nearly win every time anyway with their brainwashed cultists right into uncontested power where they will further erode our voting rights.

      Also the 3rd parties I typically vote for are essentially designed as spoiler parties for this exact purpose.

      This isn’t our “America brain” it’s your small homogenous country brain.

        But don’t you see‽ If we all voted with our hearts, we’d have the best candidates, and Dems and Republicans would both lose! /s
