    I think there’s a little bit of confusion and talking past each other. Would really help if people used actual party names so there’s less confusion but I understand once you bring names in then people are more likely polarized about the context.

    They will never get power because of the first past the post voting system

    (meaning there’s no hope for a 3rd party, better vote D against R)

    I’m not voting for Neoliberals anymore.

    (not voting for D)

    I think at this point even saying “opposition party” is muddying the waters. Are they opposite on Immigration/border policy? War? Taxation? Voting Rights?
