Nice job, France! In the US, you need 51% of the votes, so the system only works with 2 major parties. Change needs be internal, as splitting the party is a suicide pact.
In America, writing off the party entirely and refusing to play the game is almost as stupid as the suicide pact option, if you want your policies to be made reality. Not the system I love, but it's the system we have.
What a silly, ahistorical, uneducated thing to say.

Look into things beyond cultural osmosis
You think you might get met with better replies if you don't act in obvious bad faith; or if you didn't onstruct ridiculous strawmen positions to argue against, instead of relating to the actual arguments those you disagree with present?
You are being treated with derision because you treat others the same way. What goes around comes around, and what you go around with is condescention, despite the fact you have a child-like grasp on the topic at hand and the basic process of communication.
Yes, I am treating you like you treat me. Nicely observed.
