Correct. This is a major problem. The point is that it wasn't made by the people, and the few of us who understand how problematic it is can't simply make a new party and have it be successful. That doesn't fix the two party system. America is a shit show, but some of us are doing what we can, and that isn't enough but that's not our faults.
Exactly, so why are you blaming people if its not our faults? You are the one debating in defense of blaming people, voters, and non voters alike.
I'm not doing that. That's not what's happening. If you interpreted it that way, that is unfortunate. However, I am not, in fact, blaming people. Non voters couldn't have fixed this. Voters couldn't have fixed this. No one is being blamed. Except I'm kind of blaming you for not understanding what I said. But only kind of, and mostly as a joke.
