Ah yes - pissing away your vote on a third party in a 2 party first-past-the-post system will definitely fix it and not simply empower the greater evil.

It’s only pissing away if you don’t know that others vote alike. With surveys you know when a party is ready to take over.

What portion of the US population do you think have a remotely viable third party option?

None. My point is that the majority is not ready to manage power. If somebody takes it by force, it will rest in the hands of a new elite, which will most likely be corrupted soon after.

Something is missing for the masses to hold power. Instead of organizing a revolution time is better spent on discovering that something.
