    Awww shucks, most of the progressives got rat fucked by the party!

    Guess we get more “centrism” in a desperate appeal to people who actually don’t mind fascism that much, now that they think about it

        you’re not talking about democracy, you’re talking about the specific system used in the US

        most countries in europe do not have a 2-party system, here in sweden we have one party (the social democrats) with 33% of votes and then like 7 other parties with decreasing numbers of votes, that have to come together with a majority of the votes to form a government.

        • Yes, but all 8 parties will strategically position themselves around the overton window to gather as many votes as possible.

          If you have 2 parties as in the US then obviously it’s one party either side.

          I’m Australian BTW. 3 major parties, many small ones.
