    The framing isn’t false. A two-party duopoly is a simple, straightforward, and inevitable consequence of a first-past-the-post plurality voting system.

    The other letters are not an option. Voting for any other letter just helps the party you hate the most to win. Yes, it fucking sucks.

        Trump. Who won specifically because of people who decided to ineffectively vote for letters other than D.

          You have no idea who I or anyone voted for, other than yourself. I voted D and I now focus my energy on figuring out how to make them at least pretend to hold the values they espouse.
