Yeah it kind of did happen in gb

@Somi to prevent a government position being seen as a reward maybe we should stick 'em in a barracks and feed them only cafeteria food.

With liberal Democrats

At one point

And in that case, they'd simply replace either of the two original parties in the long term.

I ahte this line of arguement that a vote for a third is vote for the other. How do you think the UK got their Brexit ref? It was coz of the growth in votes for UKIP. Everyone that voted for them knew they would never win but the message was sent. Politics is a long game.

It's simply a matter of fact that that's the case, Poppy.

It is, in the US.

It's called the spoiler effect, look it up. It's a problem inherent to the first-past-the-post voting system.

Yup.

Here, CGP Grey did a video about the problems with the system

good ol' CGP

Well in us

You have bernie and progressive wave comming

I'm not certain we do.

I wonder how big splash it will make in the end

Participation in Republican primaries absolutely swept away democrat participation in most areas

RyeCast, I wouldn't underestimate the JD

JD?

Justice Democrats.

ugh, that's a doublespeak name if ever I've seen one.

Lol

Agreed

But i would not underestimate them

thank Kyle Kulinskie for it. Super hero movies were big at the time 😉

I like kyle but the name is 100% cringe

His coverage of the election was top notch but he is swimming against the tide with the 'progressives'

Well he certainly is better then young turks

Secular Talk is respectable. I’ve certainly got no beef with Kyle.

TYT is fun when something happens tha causes Chunk to have a mental breakdown

TYT is fun to laugh at. That is true. If you watch their livestream chat it’s like 90% hate watchers

I can't even hate watch TYT

Yeah i pretty much gave up on them at this point too

At least when i watch Jimmy Dore i feel he is genuine

But TyT is just shill fest now

Agreed.

I used to watch TYT a lot.

I stopped around the time of the Sam Harris interview they had.

That really bugged me.

I think that was about the time they really started to lose all self awareness, or maybe I just started to notice it.
