Always.

Because the two party system is a consequence of our election system. And the two parties are owned by corporate interests looking to further their interests. Social media and meme magic can't match the power and resources that comes with the two party monopoly, at best they can work within it to shift the overton window. Trump and Bernie didn't go independent or some non-Big2 party, they had to go through the Big2 parties to get anywhere. Their relative success reinforces the two party system, not undermines it. And then we get to the fact that as private entities, the Big2 are more than able to change rules to ensue who they prefer wins the primary. Expect superdelegates or minimum year party membership or something else to come about to stop another Sanders or Trump by the next presidential election. The biggest surprise for the general would be record non-participation. There's no white knight riding in to save the election.

Only for the cycle to return the next election. At this point a strong(over 10% of the national vote) showing for a candidate would just lead to blaming said candidate for spoiling it for whichever Big 2 candidate lost. Johnson will be no different, Republicans will blame him for Trump losing and next election the Libertarian candidate won't break single digits in the hypothetical situation where he grabs more than %10 of the vote. It's enough show a pattern. We've had the Big2 parties dominate presidential and congressional politics for over a century. It's not going anywhere and the choice between one Goldman Sachs employee and another isn't much of a choice.

well, better to do something than just moan about it on internetz right? Like sign a petition on the internetz? Or complaining about others complaining?

Do you? Where can I bet on it and what odds will I get? Our voting system is going to tend to a two party monopoly. Flooding the ballot with various other parties isn't going to change that and voting doesn't do **** anyways.

What about SJWNazis?

He's gonna win it.

What are your thoughts on this guy?

The power of what now? The power meaning the appeal of left-wing populism.... You... do realize that most of Sanders' positions wouldn't count as "radical" or "populist" in any way, shape or form here in Europelandia, right? Yes, Sanders is a social democrat, and a mild one at that, but he certainly fits "populist".

I wear a fedora because I'm euphoric.

WHAT THE F*** DOES THAT EVEN MEAN?! He's gonna build a rainstorm and make clouds pay for it.

I don't think you understand how elections work. Gore was not entitled to those 500 votes Nader got, nor the other 3rd party votes, nor the Democrat votes for Bush, nor the potential votes of those that didn't vote. If Gore was unable to convince those 500 people(along with all the others mentioned) that he was a good choice(because as we all know a third party candidate has no chance in the two party monopoly) that is on him, not Nader. The same applies to Perot in 92. He didn't cause Bush Sr to lose, Bush Sr's failures as a candidate did that. The same may apply to Hillary in this election. Sanders supporters largely do not like her. A good portion will not vote for her and may vote Stein or even Trump. This is not Bernie costing her the election, this is her being a candidate that fails to get these people to vote for her.

Not yet, the FBI party van will hopefully come soon though. Greens didn't lose Gore the election and if Hillary loses because certain voters think she would make a poor president and said voters go Green instead it's on her for being a bad candidate. I know most of you youngsters were still in diapers back then, but some historical perspective. Gore actually won the popular vote, and only lost Florida by 500 votes. Had Nader not been on the ballot, certainly Gore would've won Florida and the election. But definitely all the lefties should vote Green, Go whatever-her-name! Read it again. Slowly if you need to.

I'm still disappointed by your ideological change but I am hoping hard evidence will change your mind I can make that long post if you want about the EU ..but only if you want Go ahead, given your track record it'll make more people skeptical of the EU and neoliberalism.

Yup. In case anyone here hasn't done so yet, go watch Moon and Source Code. They're great. Also watch The Babadook if you want some horror without over the top CGI or gore. Not directed by him, but very good.

The EU needs to be protected from democracy. That means these anti-immigrant parties populary elected and DiEM25 need to be shut down and all representatives should be handpicked by EU officials.

Did you forget to take your pills today?

That's flashback material for at least four seasons, we'll come up with the first year or so and pull the rest out when the time comes.

I'll be honest man, you and Volorun have similar names so I always assume it's him posting. Gromnir.

Pure coincidence.

You are JUST figuring this out? Jeez, another board member and I were discussing that very thing days ago by PM. We don't even have a "backstage pass" GD for the last time those images were supposed to be private.
