I hate to waste my time explaining things to you but this is pretty simple:

Compromise.

You can't expect your own specific party tailored to exactly your priorities. Even in a multiparty system people make "lesser of evils" choices.

I'm not necessarily defending our system... I just think people like to whine about how everything is rigged and broken, but truthfully the bipolar/multipolar system question is just a choice between different sets of problems and different sets of benefits. People want what they don't have.

It's so much easier to just say it's all corrupt and useless than to actually take the time to understand why it's designed the way it is

This is true for most things in politics

Stop arguing with the retards!

[redbreegull]

in your case what actually happens most of the time is that you press some point that demonstrates a fundamental non-understanding elections or the government, or you engage in red-herring and tangential debate, and then you don't understand why what you are saying is not worth responding to.

Truthfully I deserve better opponents.

I'm just waiting for a "YOU'RE FUCKING WHITE!!" when I bring up yet another valid point he can't respond to

His response is, "what's your degree?", as if the truth can only be viewed by those with one. lol.

I'm curious to your education background because if its in civics/poli sci or history, I'd ask if any Prof you had really broke down the Bush empire. From Prescott Bush being found guilty of aiding and abetting the enemy (Nazi's) during WWII (not to mention the CIA being half-stasi at its beginnings); son George being the first CIA director to never had been a field agent; George being forced upon Reagan as his VP choice and the family's connections to John Hinckley's family. Then George Bush became president and soon handed it over to Bill Clinton, his partner in the cocaine trade through Mena, Ark. Enter his son, Dubya, who wins a stolen election which was rigged in broad daylight in the very state his other son, Jeb, was Governor of at the time.

Those are the highlights and that's just up to the year 2000.

ahhh...o.k. critical theory. Well, I would hope with the abbreviated cliff notes of the Bush timeline above, all one needs is a pair of eyes to see how deeply connected they have always been in 'deep state' tactics and still are, though less so because it's the Clinton's now with the most recent history of being in seats of governmental power.
