To all the MFer here claiming "we have no other choice!" "Third parties spoil elections!", etc.: you're not getting it:

The solution is not to disengage, but rather to start building up true political power by mass organizing.

Primaries. Fucking people need to show up for the primaries. I usually only see people coming out and bitching about their shitty choices in the general. It doesn't help that Americans really like to vote for incumbents, and that the fucking parties really like to only support incumbents.

  1. What primaries? The dems had primaries?
  2. As if the Dems would have let Bernie won
  3. (Most important point): Telling people they acted wrong doesn't address any systemic issue.
  4. Non-sequitur much?
