Doesn’t matter if they “become socialist” if they still vote for the same 2 party system. Democrats will never allow America to become actually left-wing
The 2 party system doesn’t change until voting changes. First-past-the-post voting actively encourages 2 dominant parties. Ranked choice voting isn’t perfect, but it’s definitely better than FTTP and it has the most momentum in the US right now.
Yeah RCV sounds like the way forward. I was hoping some states would adopt PR but unfortunately that is blocked by the Uniform Congressional Districts Act.

Voting is not capable of fixing our system.
If you adopted PR and suddenly had more political parties, it seems to me that a lot of the current problems in US politics would go away
That would certainly be better, though very far from perfect. But I doubt they’d allow such a thing to happen anyway.
The US isn’t the only country in the world

“I don’t understand”
Agree, but here’s what they don’t want you to know!
Not every thing posted here has to do with America. The world has other countries don’t you know?
“Murdoch never saw it coming” and the use of the word “boomers” clearly imply that this meme is in reference to America but sure
Mate?
Murdochs from Australia and boomers are an entire generation of people in the west. Nothing about this is uniquely American.
It’s ok, I make mistakes too.
