Third parties are obviously the way any intelligent person may choose to vote. This video explains why they are currently not viable in America. Ranked choice voting has to come before third parties. It's not a moral thing, it's voting math.

Gonna vote third party as soon as the Democrats and Republicans implement ranked choice voting

seriously though is there any way to get to ranked choice voting other than a violent revolution?

A couple states have started using it. Just needs enough willpower.

This requires organizing. Even the revolution requires organizing, so I think you'd get more traction with rank choice voting vs a revolution.

Yes. We're already starting to use it in some places!

Strikes, boycotts, or anything that hurts their donors' wallets. There actually is some political will for it too, just not enough for individual politicians to push through. They need to be able to point to external unrest.
