Anyone that doesn't think there's a uniparty is being very naive.
There is a uniparty and it is very strong and has been built for years and has created ways that make sure it is almost impossible to take the power away from them.
Hell if Rand were president right now he would be getting shut down in the same ways. Taking power away from the uniparty is a long game and anyone that thinks otherwise just doesn't have the stomach for it.
GN is from the generation of instant gratification and should understand this is going to take many elections and it still might not get accomplished.

There you go again, not adding anything. Just can't help yourself but to piss in the wind.

It really is a Uni-party now.

He isn't a socialist. He is a welfare capitalist. Not the same thing. I know this is confusing because the welfare capitalist states of western Europe are called social democracies. Social democracy does not equal socialism as it lacks the central component, state ownership of the means of production.

That is all window dressing. If the GOP wanted to outlaw abortion they would have by now. Better to use such things to stir people up and divide us.

Not much.
Think of the old USSR:
Union of Soviet Socialist Republics.

Absolutely correct. The Cabal controls everything. We are at their whim. The 2 party system is being kept as an illusion to keep the American people armed against each other instead of armed against our true enemy

Bernie isn't a member of the Dumocratic Party.
He is an Independent who just ran for the Dumocratic Party's candidate for POTUS.

Made it more appropriate for a GN thread.

The system is set up for two parties to run the country. A successful third party will need to pull equally from both R's and D's in order to stand a chance, otherwise all they will do is water down on party which will lead to persistent victories for the party that remains more or less unified.

The fact the 2 party system is still going strong today shows just how brainwashed our citizens are.
Actually believing there is a difference between the two and that we have a choice.
Reality check: neither party cares about the people
To be honest I only came to this realization about 5 years ago.

Socialism is a transition from capitalism to communism. Communism is a more refined endpoint of socialism. They both rely on government ownership of the means of production.
Welfare capitalism o relies on private ownership which is heavily taxed to provide for populace.

the only difference between them is what they do with your money once they take it.
