people paint with such broad brushes on this forum one could write a thesis
answering one post
Our job is not so huge as one would at first imagine, first we need to
forget all this party nonsense, third parties are doomed. Anti capitalist
candidates ? Indoctrination from birth is too great a hurdle to overcome,
use the power of your opponent, what do we know- 50% of the population are
so alienated they don't bother to vote, we must encourage the other 50% to
stop voting also. We are halfway there people, don't tell people what could
work better, tell them what they can already see, the system isn't working,
isn't it easier to get someone to do nothing rather than swim upstream. We
need the parties to fragment, get them down to our size.
