Okay I went off on the Green Party for a minute. And maybe I am ill informed. But can someone actually let me know if I’m wrong? I’m in Ohio, I see Sherrod Brown, Joyce Beatty, and especially Morgan Harper out here hustling in the community like year round along with a lot of republicans who I don’t love. They campaign and help solve problems 12 months a year. They are super active in politics and local problems year round. Where are the green candidates? Where is the Green Party? If you want people to vote for you you gotta put in the door knocking. Protest campaigns every 2-4 years are not gonna get you the voice you need to change things. Okay someone tell me I’m wrong. Happy to be wrong if I am wrong

everyone in the US has been sufficiently bifurcated, on nearly all issues for so long, people are nearly incapable of imagining plurality in almost any capacity or dimension third party ain’t ever gonna happen until everyone is on board that the current major parties are both sickly and corrupt (which they are)

A lot of truth here but also missing the fact the Green Party is not visible at all outside of election years. To put it frankly, they are not putting in the work at the local, grassroots level like @jeffexcell. You can’t just step in and say, “we want the highest office in the land” without having proven squat

The single reason for which third parties don't thrive in the US is electoral design. Most of democracies in the world are multiparty systems, coincidentally the US is the only democracy with an electoral college.
