But it does, due to the unfortunate way our voting system is structured until massive voting reform voting for anyone accept the big two is literally voting for the other. It sucks but unless we change it we have to live with that

What a convenient excuse to silence all criticism.

Nope, I'm very vocal about criticism and fixing it but the solution you suggest has already horribly backfired once but by all means shoot yourself in the foot again

the solution you suggest

What solution did I suggest?

Oh right. You don't care. You don't want to listen, just lecture.

I'll listen when you say something that isn't just deflection

So what solution did I suggest?

Your responses were implicit that the only way to teach Democrats was to either vote Republican or third party.

Of course you did not come out and say this because you take a hard line stance on nothing instead, playing contrarian to everyone else.

Because as I've said before you only deflect you don't actually State what you believe. The entire time we've talked all you've done is call down existing institutions without offering up any actual solutions and anytime one is presented you deflect.

Your responses were implicit that the only way to teach Democrats was to either vote Republican or third party.

Hogwash. Democrats will never learn, and teaching them is a fool's errand. You seem to be operating under the misguided and all-too-common assumption that anyone who is critical of Democrats in the slightest is somehow in favor of Republicans or not voting.

Democrats are shit on purpose, and if that ever stops being true, I'll stop saying it.

Nope never said anything of the sort and you're arguing in bad faith and criticize while proposing no solutions so at this juncture I would like to say agree to disagree and leave it at that.
