    Never voting again sounds good to me, since that way people would realize how pointless it is. Unfortunately neither option will lead to that outcome and people will pat themselves on the back after voting for the Capitalist party.

      Ah yes, not participating. The way to change the system is to not participate. All we have to do is let the republicans win, so they can make being gay illegal, abolish no-fault divorce, and re-introduce christian indoctrination in the classroom. Then everyone will finally realize it’s all stupid and they’ll release all the gay criminals and atheist teachers from jail and say “Sorry! Thanks for not voting, now we realize both parties were the problem!”

      You would probably still vote but there would only be one party to vote for. Voting might become mandatory too

        The Capitalist party is who you will be voting for, so materially what is the difference?

          We’d be voting for the Nazi party, silly. Any other party would be declared a terrorist organization and all members would be arrested or worse.

            Oh that sounds terrible. So we should vote for a party who doesn’t agree with, doesn’t support, and doesn’t call those people friends while they hangout at the same fund raising parties right?

              Right now the options are limited. Neither are good but one is terrible and dangerous for the U.S. and the world.
