Let me make one thing clear—I am supporting Rachele Fruit of the Socialist Workers Party because she truly aligns with my values. But I post about third parties too, because it’s interesting. It’s political news and this is a political news community.
But let’s get something straight about Stein and others who dare to challenge the duopoly: it’s not about spoiling an election, it’s about pushing the boundaries of what’s possible in a system designed to keep the status quo in place.
The fact that there isn’t a singular third-party candidate to rally behind is a symptom of the very problem we’re fighting against—a rigged system that stifles real alternatives.
But dismissing the efforts of multiple candidates who refuse to toe the line of the two-party stranglehold only serves to protect the very power structure that continues to fail working people.
