    Both political parties are a bunch of evil idiotic pricks. Each major party is the party of corporate influence. One is slightly more overt and explicit in their intention but it’s not enough of a distinction to make identifying them worthwhile.

    Okay, I acknowledged it. Now what?

        How do you have a successful revolution when roughly 95% of people support either Republicans or Democrats?

          They don’t, actually. The US government has a shockingly low approval rate to begin with, and it’s only getting worse over the years.

            I’m not talking about “approval rates.” I’m talking about how, in any given election, less than 5% of the vote goes to third parties.

            If third party candidates can’t get enough support to even come close to getting elected, how would we be able to get enough people organized to support a revolution? Voting takes very little effort, so I would expect the number of supporters to go down, not up.
