Left/right was stupid in my mind the moment I realised you couldn't be okay with gays as well as guns without having to drop one to go for the other.

The libertarian party in the US is retarded though lol
Definitely.
did you see their debates
..Do I even want to know.
Closest thing to following the libertarian party I've done is seeing what rand paul's been doing.
yeah, funny though because both political parties are going through ideological changes rn
conservatism is changing
And the two party system was a mistake.
Maybe we'll be lucky and it'll dissolve after this.
i don't know about that
I doubt it'll happen. But I can dream.
imagine all of the gridlock with many parties
having to form coalitions like in Europe
that's not good
Maybe. Excess bureaucracy's kind of just one of those side effects nobody's really figured out how to fix in a system that tries to be clean but. Well the system in place right now definitely isn't anything remotely close to that.
Two party system but it's still in a near constant state of gridlock.
the failure of the libertarian party could also be a reflection of the fact that people might just inherently gravitate towards authority
We either need a serious third contender or a dissolution of political parties.
ergo giant bureaucracy
I'd settle for a second.
dissolution of political parties isn't realistic
I know it's not.
humans form groups
And a full unfiltered democracy would be nothing short of terrifying.
yeah
It's nearly impossible to ask someone with power to give up power.
I mean, look at all the people lemming for Net neutrality to be kept in place, just shows the mob is retarded
Yeah, until you realize that Net Neutrality wasn't really officially a legal concept until during obama's second term
and that the internet did just fine without it thank you very much.
A fair number of the people arguing for net neutrality are definitely doing it in idiotic ways but the concept still isn't bad unfortunately.
yes it is
net neutrality is bad
Well okay, let me rephrase.
Purely from an open market perspective, it's bad.
Net neutrality isn't great. But the alternative is much worse.
Is it?
also wrong
Giant corporations that game the system and change laws to benefit themselves while screwing over anyone smaller than them.
