But people don't wanna think and would rather pick sides smfh
yep. we need a system that allows 5 or more parties to thrive at once like in France, the netherlands etc so we can have more options
It's not like you can't put your name on the polls even if you're not part of a party.
The problem is no media outlet will acknowledge your existence and nobody will know who are are, and thus not vote for you, unless you're part of the 2 "main" parties.
And the 2 main parties that hold the most power do so because they are supported by people with (a lot of) money and influence, who want to keep those one of those 2 parties in power, so they can influence the politicians to do as they want.
If that were true, Ross Perot would never have been involved in the 1992 and 1996 elections. ---
