    the United States is also a one-party state but, with typical American extravagance, they have two of them. — Julius Nyerere

    I shall not go to the polls. I have not registered. I believe that democracy has so far disappeared in the United States that no “two evils” exist. There is but one evil party with two names, and it will be elected despite all I can do or say… — W.E.B. Du Bois

    The Democratic Party has really been a right wing party this whole time.

    America hasn’t ever really had a real left wing

        “Vote in the primaries!”

        “I do but the party actively undermines democracy during those. Repeatedly, openly, and unashamedly.”

        “Yeah well they’re allowed to just choose whoever they want anyway so you have to vote for the neoliberal in the general.”
