Political parties need to die off (with the DNC as like exhibits 1, 2, and 3). The function they perform can be done by union leadership, state-level political collectives, STAR based voting for individual candidates, fuckin’ coordination in a subreddit, I don’t know. I get how they arose because of FPTP voting because we’re still using 18th century voting tech, but it is time for them to go and for whatever structural elements that provide advantage and enablement for them to go with them.
