You blame me for this fucked up system? Yeah, I'm not carrying that weight.

I worked for years for third party politics. I was a card-carrying member of the LP. Worked for ballot access for both LP and the Green Party. If that's how you want to activate, go do it. I'm done with it. I see the system for what it is: Corrupt.

As long as we have first-past-the-post voting, laws stacked against any third party or independent candidates, and a complicit media, third parties are a pit into which people throw their passions and their energy and their money, with no resulting change.

You do what you gotta do, and I'm gonna do what I gotta do. What I gotta do is help build communities of resistance, and make it as expensive and inconvenient as possible for this shit to keep happening.

Well that's me told :) For what it's worth, I vote every time, never for one of the big two, and I tell people why.
