Why do you believe there will never be public support for a Socialist candidate in the US? Where do you believe people draw their ideas from? Is the US a static, unchanging system? We know this to be false, wealth disparity is rising, the climate is changing, it’s anything but static!
The mainstream parties will never risk losing power intentionally, ergo there will be no change to the voting system.
Because that’s how the spoiler effect works.The more support a leftist third party gets, the easier it is for the Republicans to win.
I can’t tell you how to fix it, but I can tell you that an election with 10% Socialists, 40% Dems, and 50% Reps will scare people away from voting Socialists.
At least as long as MAGA is a thing and the Dems aren’t seen as totally corrupt and basically the same as the Reps by the general public. And believe me: they aren’t.
You didn’t answer my questions. Why do you believe the US is a closed, unchanging, static system? In order for any of your analysis to make any sense, it must be immovable with no trends in metrics, in perpetuity.

Not necessarily. Ideas change alongside the ever-changing material conditions.

Evidently.

Why? Trends change over time.

It will be for as long as Capitalism exists, getting worse. Capitalism is declining, and fascism rises when Capitalism is in decay. Only Socialism will fix it, liberalism leads to more fascism. You can’t prevent MAGA by voting Dem, you strengthen it.

This is increasingly proven to be true, public opinion of both parties is declining.
I’m not doing anything like that, the will never be public support for a socialist candidate in the US without first changing the voting system.
I wish it wasn’t like that but I’m convinced it is.
