Both parties keep us divided because unity would end their control.
That’s the real threat they fear. #UnitedWeRise #EndTheDuopoly

@jonah Great to see that you touched on the #LinuxMobile option. I'm daily driving #postmarketOS on my #Librem5 and it's good enough to do most of what I need - the only thing does not work is recording sound in videos. Even running #FOSS Android apps using #Fdroid, #Obtainium, etc. on #Waydroid works, although the #LibertyPhone with more RAM and storage is better suited for it.
There's also the #FLX1 (runs #Droidian-based #FuriOS) which comes at a more affordable price, and Android app compatibility set up out of the box. I think that is more 'normie'-friendly and has decent specs overall compared to true Linux phones. Camera quality is as good as Android as it uses Android kernel and drivers.
If you were fine with this happening under Biden, but outraged now that Trump is doing the same thing you are a hypocrite and in a cult. #EndtheDuopoly
It's time to break out of this two-party doom loop.

#ProportionalRepresentation doesn’t just change who wins. It changes who runs. It changes who gets heard. It changes *everything*. #ProRep #EndTheDuopoly #EndPolarization
This article is obviously UK oriented, but it's not hard to see how the two-party system in #California inevitably lets down #lgbtq #lgbtq_plus folks. What's the alternative to voting Democrat when the party's leaders throw trans kids under the bus? How can a tiny legislature with only (barely) two political parties even begin to represent the gender diversity, culture and political diversity of a nation-sized state of 40 million people? #democracy #ProportionalRepresentation #EndTheDuopoly
More women. More communities of color. More working-class voices. #ProportionalRepresentation creates a government that looks like the people it serves.
"Portlanders just used proportional ranked choice voting to elect their most representative city government in more than a century. Voters chose leaders who form a portrait of the city in miniature. The dozen councilors include three renters, five people of color, six women, eight millennials (one only 28 years old), and residents of twelve different neighborhoods. Most importantly, proportional representation paved the way for a council that reflects Portlanders’ varied political beliefs, full of advocates for different viewpoints from business to labor, from moderates to progressives, and even from animal rights to transportation safety."

Hello fediverse! We're the ProRep Coalition, a growing coalition of smaller parties and pro-democracy organizations working together to bring multiparty democracy to #California. Our goal is to pass a ballot measure in 2028 to establish a system of Proportional Representation in the state legislature. With PR political parties win about as many seats as their percentage of the vote. So voters can finally elect reps from parties other than just Democrats and Republicans.
We can break up the two-party system, in California and the U.S. Please help spread the word! And California residents please sign the statement of support at https://www.prorepcoalition.org/take-action

"Coles and Woolworths have so much power that they don't need to compete hard on price," the ACCC supermarket inquiry found. Their gain is our pain. #remahformoreton #auspol #CostOfLivingCrisis #EndTheDuopoly #PeopleBeforeProfits #VoteGreens
@Stefan_S_from_H Once again, the Democrats handed him the win. They are willing to lose everytime so they can continue to prioritize Israel. #freepalestine #endtheduopoly
From the New Statesman 👇
Labour voters n supporters. Will you now accept that Labour as an alternative to the Tories no longer exists?
Workers unite! Stop falling for the “lesser of two evils” lie!
The Democrats and Republicans are two sides of the same coin—both serving Wall Street, the bosses, and the billionaires while throwing workers under the bus.
If we want real change, real power, and a real voice for the working class, Rachele Fruit is the one who’ll bring it!
It’s time to break the chains of the duopoly and fight for a government that puts workers first! #WorkersUnite #RacheleFruit #EndTheDuopoly
Yet we still choose the "lesser of two evils" when will it become apparent that we need to stand up and stop playing the DNC vs RNC "game" that uses human lives as pawns?
There is oh so much at stake than even blue no matter who people realize; it goes beyond merely just arming Israel They conveniently never have the money for us

I'd also like to point out the GOP's involvement in this too... both the DNC and GOP are in it together like good cop/bad cop.
Still that being said the Democrats have advertised for infiltrating the campaigns of Dr Stein, Dr. West, and RFK.... all while reminding us that democracy is at stake... granted that Trump would dissolve the remaining democracy we may have left

When I broke free from the @GOP, my eyes was opened to the insanity of the two-party system.
#blexit #endtheduopoly #thelesseroftwoevildisstillevil #ditchtheduopoly #voteyourconscience
This sums up the difference between the @GOP and @thedemocrats - not which side you’re on, but who’s doing the thing at the time.

The media would let you believe that these are the ONLY options in the election, when nothing can be further from the truth.

If you live under the ruse that “the government will pay for it,” then you will never break free.

Oh dear! But the IPOS survey also found '57% don't like Starmer'. Vote Green/Independent
