Politically homeless? Join the club.

I guess the headline speaks for itself.

Curious as to how entrenched people in this forum are in the false dichotomy – constantly falling into the next hole while blaming their neighbor. Stuck in the savior complex, hoping that this one person will ride in and fix everything. Or is it time for something completely different?

Any takers?

I've been voting third party since '96.

I'm watching my county Republicans work hand-in-hand and cheek-to-cheek with state Democrats to first steal our elections and then cover it up and protect the guilty.

My default position on pretty much anything is if the Feds are involved, then they are fault.

So I'm ready and waiting for something better. Whatcha got?

False dichotomy.....call it whatever you want. We have kids graduating from high school that can't read or write. We have people suffering from the effects of criminal behavior they can't escape and no protection is readily available. Mental health crisis like never before. Drug addiction and deaths are insanely out of control. We are being inundated with proper pronoun usage or else. Food and utility prices ever rising all the while we're being told we will have to change our energy sources which will then increase the already high prices for everything and most likely create a lack of availability and freedom. Children are being exploited like never before. And corruption, especially politically where our leaders are supposed to guide us as a whole is infinite.

Politically homeless? Neither side is perfect and as humans we all have our flaws and failures. But one side leans predominantly for this BS lifestyle and one against. Tell me, which side is the sanest and most logical. Because that's where we're at.

There's no false dichotomy. There's picking a side that is in your best interest. There are real actions and real consequences. But you have to look deeper than the victory of getting a free phone or some debts paid off. The structure of success or failure of any country is actually pretty easy to see by looking at history and also what is currently happening. I'm not sure why people are so blind but they are. In fact, you can look at the states in the US alone and see which ones are successful and which are failing miserably.

One serious flaw is there is too much money to cover and hide the depths of failure but with time, things gradually come to light. I believe that time is now but I could be wrong.

I'm one of those people who strongly distrusts what appears to be an obviously captured electoral system. Wether in the US or anywhere else. Whatever the solution is, it seems an important step is for more people than a minority start engaging in finding or creating a different direction. For example smaller self contained communities to break out of state dependency.

" false dichotomy "

Huh , is that a Testament to Your Own Personal Perception of the Present Reality here on Planet Earth ? Ah , Your Possibly WRONG........ Nothing Personal...........

I'm all for the light hearted jabs of "well, your side liked to kill babies" countered with "your side wants women in caves" and neither bothering to ask the other's opinion on anything just tell them what they think. But the recent journey deep into clown world is a much different animal. Women are men, you go to jail if you don't play along, 5 year old kids are being taught about sex and how to be a homo or trans, the president is likely owned by China, and everything is fine. I'm thinking it's time to ask for the check.

Lol absolutely, that's the only reality I can currently experience as a singular human being. Meaning an N of 1. Meaning there are countless additional perceptions. Hence the question in this thread. By all means, add whatever other way you may construe reality. More is more.

That's Great Bill ! Oh , and Please Stay Away from that Turd Party , You Know Who they Are . It's a Drag on Our Ability to Stay Alive on this Planet with Any Decent Standard of Living for the Foreseeable Future cause of those A Holes,,,,,,..........

Yes, the reality you are experiencing as a singular human being was engineered to cause you to behave exactly as you are behaving now. Bonus for posting a thread stating you are politically homeless. And it's just going to keep getting worse until the overwhelming consensus is completely fed up with the FED, no longer think their vote counts, and most importantly HOPELESS. They want us to welcome the solution they propose. We'll probably even get to see someone's body double dangling from piano wire, just to get us all riled up and 100% behind the benevolent dictator after the staged coup.

I was actually expecting this category generic response to appear earlier. But at least it did.
Good for you.

Lots of folks are sure trying!

Among other things, one of the things our state legislature has done is prohibit the use of machines not manufactured 100% in the USA. There was also a bill introduced that would return responsibility for hand vote counting to the precinct before being sent to County offices.

One of the issues that we've had is that precincts have not been counting ballots prior to sending them to the County tabulation center (contrary to the law), and the County not counting ballots before sending them to the printer for preliminary signature verification (also unlawful). Consequently, we've had no effective chain-of-custody documentation for ballots. This will help.

I'm not at all happy about the Republicans just wanting to build a bigger and better vote chasing operation...

Politically homeless and black pilled.

I’m small l libertarian, vote for them whenever they are on ballot… but they feel like a bunch of squabbling kids on twitter. Their stance on some things like drugs is troubling… I can understand but some drugs need to be regulated.

D&R Seem like two sides of same coin. Some ultimate agenda just using left right alternating to move it along like an old railroad hand car. They play at being different, but at end of day, they are bought out by same people pushing same ultimate agenda. Yes there are a few rebelling against their respective party, but it’s ineffectual.

I don’t see people revolting, and I don’t see the system being fixed… so it’s a increasingly speedy decent of a once great country. I’m totally black pilled.
