    The same can be said for the untold masses of “socialists” crying that “all dems are pro-genocide!” while most of them didn’t even know where Palestine was a year ago.

      Genocidal policies are made from the position of power. Socialist third parties are nowhere close to reaching that position and People who can get to that position are reluctant to change those policies and that’s why public pressure is required.

        So, your original post is about the voters, or the politicians? Because I’m talking about the voters, which is what you made your post out to be.

        Third party will never see the light of day because the people that see it for what it is would never in their life support it. Those that support it, only pay attention to it every three and a half years or so just like the candidates do with political policy.

        They do nothing, and they have no roadmap to any effective policy at all.

        When this changes, I’d be willing to bet that any free thinking democrat would be willing to listen. But as the leftists LOVE to say-

        They haven’t earned our votes. They don’t just get to demand we vote for them and magically get our votes. It’s THEIR job to earn votes.

        And they haven’t.
