It’s okay to admit it, was just curious. Realistically the US political system IS a dichotomy. The only options that have a realistic chance of being elected are either Republicans or Democrats.
It goes to show how I can say something so patently and obviously untrue and sarcastic and yet it still doesn't register as such. America has developed such a hyper-focus on voting to the exclusion of all other possibilities that it's basically learned helplessness at this point.
