You’re not going to believe this but most of that is happening in meatspace communities because right now we’re in a phase of local community action. There aren’t larger scale elections that catch the focus of greater social media. Some states do have governors coming up this year but you probably won’t see general or local election stuff unless you’re deep in some board specifically for a city or state.
Now what you might see people talking about unionizing efforts and you maybe have been seeing some memes about a mario brother.
Yup, but most likely it’ll be crickets until a month or two out from the next election when they’ll turn on their shiny lights and attract all the assholes that think showing interest and voting for a 3rd party right before an election, and only right before an election, is actually going to do something.
Now’s the exact time to promote third parties.
If there actually were any. The only reason we hear about them ever is to promote spoiler candidates. Most are entirely funded by the GOP.
Yeah, like the brainworm anti-vax guy that’s now going to be in charge of our health as restitution for siphoning voters from Dems.

That’s where their comments likely are.

Yeah. On a local/state level. For a long, long time before one can even stand a snowball’s chance in hell of winning a presidential election.
“Yes, but as a strategic move, give up on controlling the most important single office in the country.”
Perot won 19% in 1992. Why has the trend inverted?
