It makes browsing Sup Forums thoroughly unenjoyable, and worse, it's starting to infect irl political discourse in my country

Good post. We need to repeal the 26th amendment. Only smart people should vote.

because american politics is just a veil cast over the eyes of the masses, there is only greed beyond the veil and no one dares to lift it

we have something like that, textbook populism with politicians beating their chests saying "you're either with us or against us", polarizing political opinions and guaranteeing they'll get voted by people that don't actually support them, but bought the "the other guys are evil, caring for the interests of this one specific group with questionable morals" speech

...

so what, your a fuckin liberal? fuck off

>ONLY TWO POSSIBLE OPINIONS YOU CAN HOLD ABOUT LITERALLY ANY SUBJECT
That's because all subjects either have one choice or the other. Take abortion for example. You're either for it or against it (democrats for it and republicans against it) You could say "I'm for abortion but only for under certain circumstances..blah blah blah" but ultimately you're for it obviously with excepts but you're choosing for abortions. Every policy either comes down to two choices and both of those choices are taken up by the demcracts and republicans

At lest their parties have some token issues to have opinions on.
Our parties are basically "all the other parties are evil, only we can save bulgaria (tm)"
I guess the socialists want to give old people more money, but that's it.
It's an argument about who is more corrupt rather than policy.

>it's a "Brits pretend they have a functioning government" episode
Wish they'd stop airing the same unfunny shit every day

>every policy is two choices
you might be a legit brainlet

el elemento...

Because Sith see the world in absolutes, American party over country politics are so out of control they've come to reduce everything into with us or against us terms.

It's not the two party system, as rotten as that is, there used to be a lot more nuance before birtherism hijacked US politics into white supremacists vs SJWs

american politics sucks i agree but your country has a problem with tabloid obsessed idiots too. Also the whole brexit thing and ukip? you're not above it. The most reasonable political posts here seem to be from russians who hate everything and french

>no more women voters
based

I right. You're either for something or against something at it's core. You can make circumstances and exceptions and go into detail further but at it's root it's yes or no. So next time actually come up with constructive criticism instead of just saying "you're a brainlet lolol gotem"

...

Two words:
REPRESENTATIVE
DEMOCRACY

Get rid of one and the problem is solved.

Democracy. Poor people shouldn't be allowed to vote

Awww, come on. I was just trying to be funny.

Your government literally just shut down for a bit. Your extremely partisan politics are the cause if all your problems. Meanwhile 4 of the top 10 most stable democracies according to the World Economic Forum are British style Westminster systems.

you can have all sorts of policy on any single issue, reducing the spectrum of options to a line in the sand of your choosing is brainlet territory

t. Daddy's NEET

Didn't read any of this you fucking nerd

Pretty soon people are going to start hating you for being a centrist.

That's what I originally said you tard. At it's core it's yes or no. That's why there is two options. Reread my original post to refresh your goldfish memory

abortion isn't a yes or no, even fucking POLAND and IRELAND have cases where abortion is ok like rape and health risks

That's what Sup Forums has been for years, get used to it, newfag.

>where abortion is ok like rape and health risks
that would be in "for abortion" under one side. Republicans would not allow that because they're against it. Do you seriously not understand how this works? How two parties became to be? What did I say here ? Reread it again

You can't read because, like everything else in America, your education is fucked by a shitty system of government.

>I'm dumb and I like penis in my bum and mouth
t. You

so it's possible to have abortion in some cases and forbid it in others in the same country like the examples of Ireland and Poland, but American politics doesn't accept anything in between? am I reading this correctly?

Only 33.3% of those things are true

sorry your IQ is too low to do anything but sit on the fence

>but American politics doesn't accept anything in between? am I reading this correctly?
Yes. Republicans wouldn't allow abortions under any circumstance. It goes against their christian, traditional, conservative values. Democrats want it obviously. But they would want it for everything not just for special cases with rapes and whatever. hence the two choices I was talking about. If you ever allow it that is "for abortions or just pro-choice". You're agreeing with abortions. If you don't ever allow it you're against it (pro-life).

lol BTFO

Or come up with a different solution to a given problem?

Which third

literally me

I can contradict myself whenever I want and never be wrong about something.

you're telling me that ALL republicans would back the blanket ban on abortion rather than the Polish version?
that extreme position int a result of your two party system?

*isn't

Maybe some republicans would be for it but the party stance on the issue is no-no for abortions. It's a extreme position because these two parties put every policy in the world under two blankets. That's how it works here

again, that's why nothing gets done and the government consistently shuts down is because the two parties can't come to a agreement on issues because their stances are so extreme they aren't willing to back down unless negotiations are in order or a party has the majority in congress/senate whatever to pass their bill/law.

>all of Sup Forums is Sup Forums
das rite, keep fighting the good fight my based shadilay brother!

See? Look what you're doing yourself? The world is entirely black and white to you. Everyone who disagrees with you is Sup Forums and I'm inherently an evil stupid neanderthal just because I said this. But at least I'm willing to listen to you. Are you not aware Sup Forums was a hotbed for disagreement on the daily?

Even if every issue were black and white (they aren't) what about people that hold different views regarding different issues? What if I'm for guns and abortion?

>not flip flopping every day on each side confusing everyone and yourself on what you really believe

kill yourself you cancerous child

>show ur flag
Why do they get so upset when you use a meme flag on Sup Forums?

The looming shutdown isn't a two party issue. The GOP holds all three branches of government. They're just really retarded and dysfunctional.

Thanks for posting my oc

That's Anglo politics though

>I come to Sup Forums to discuss politics

That's Anglo politics.

When the 65+ furious racist facebook boomers die off this is probably where our politics will go, as dumb as they are they do keep things tethered to issues because they're so extreme
