    You aren’t revealing some mystical secrets of the universe I’m too dense to understand.

    I know the DNC would love to blame their electoral failure on third parties. They aren’t a shitty uninspiring party that cant articulate an authentic compelling vision for the future, it’s the stupid voters. These dumb dumb voters just won’t vote for them because they got tricked, hood winked into voting for, I forget who was the spoiler that cost Harris her victory. I know people like to blame Bernie for 2016, even though the actual data clearly showed Bernie voters loyally voted along with the party in greater numbers than Clinton voters did for Obama.

    You think you are being the adult in the room stamping your feet and throwing a tantrum that the dumbass voters dont want to vote for the garbage neolib party that offers them nothing. I’ve got an adult sized wake up pill for you PARTIES HAVE TO WIN VOTES! And if your solution is to tell everyone, the party is fine we just need these dumbass voters to fall in line, you’ve got bigger problems than arguing with some guy on Lemmy.

      Is that what I did? I’m just doing an apples to apples comparison of two strategies.

      No, they aren’t. They sure manage to inspire more loyalty than any third party has ever managed though.

      Not me, but people. Not sure how this is relevant here though. You aren’t being genuine with me, you are just ranting.

      PARTIES HAVE TO WIN VOTES! And if your solution is to tell everyone, the party is fine we just need these dumbass voters to fall in line

      Once again, I have to wonder who the fuck you think you are talking to.

      you’ve got bigger problems than arguing with some guy on Lemmy.

      Pot, meet kettle.
