Third party voters are in fact a repressed minority
They are the minority
And their beliefs are repressed with constant anti-third party voting sentiments
So working to change this situation, 3rd parties contested every house and senate seat. Right?
What are you asking? If third party voters want to contest all congressional seats? Or if there is a third party candidate who contested congressional seats?
No matter what you are asking, what party are you asking about? 3rd party isn't a party itself, there are no general 3rd party beliefs and actions. Are you asking about the libertarian party, the largest third party by registered voters? Or the Green Party who had Jill Stein take the most 3rd party votes this year? Or some other party?
You want change. But a president alone cannot achieve that. A president needs house and senate support.
By building a mandate in these two chambers, 3rd party's can start to drive change. But only if they contest the seats.
This couldn't have been cornier if you'd said it's harder to come out as conservative nowadays than as gay. Do better.
Say something of substance
"i'm oppressed because of my political opinions" grow the hell up. oppression is when people target you for something about yourself you can't change. oppression because of political views is just people telling you you're an asshole and you refusing to listen
Nobody said oppressed. Repressed. The word is repressed, as in all beliefs that don't fall in line with the two primary parties are repressed.
