    It's really "weird" how whenever there's a republican president they can do whatever the fuck they want and whenever there's a democrat president they "don't have enough power to achieve their goals and are really sorry about that"

    Definitely nothing to see here definitely no implication that both parties are pawns controlled by capital nope no sir no way.

          Based on what appearance?

          There’s a few polls on this every year, and a majority of Americans consistently say that the two parties do a shit job and a different party is needed.

          From last week:

          Sixty-two percent of U.S. adults say the "parties do such a poor job representing the American people that a third party is needed,"

          The problem is that no mass political alternative has emerged. Even if people want an alternative, if none exists, or there is not a clear path to building one, the status quo wins by default.

          That’s why, IMO, the most pressing task for the American left is to build the framework for a class independent, first party of the working class. We have to present an alternative that can actually be recognized as a tangible option.
