imagine everyone voting for different individual candidates, no parties, no primaries, just one shot vote every couple years for, you know, whoever tickles your fancy at 8:00 on a tuesday morning, do you know how much of a fucking mess that would be, or everyone voting for different policies, no parties, no primaries, just one shot vote every couple years, for just about anything, want to outlaw mondays, sure why not pencil that fucker in, and vote on it. there's a reason that people coalesce into political parties with identifying characteristics, it's so anything gets done at all, most of the time by people who can actually do them
You have some weird misunderstandings about how political parties work. And you apparently don't know the difference between a party and an ideological identity... but I like your energy.
in order to have a "party" you must share a core "ideological identity", i mean it's right there in the name, man
Interesting. Tell me more.
