I absolutely hate how some attention craving idiots completely destroyed the pirate party from within.

A liberal party that's not neoliberal centrist like the lobby party we have but instead with a left leaning social part and a very open minded and modern world view would be so perfect...

Guess we wish for something similar.

Idk. The 'new'er parties like the Pirate Party or Volt didn't really take off. Seems like only the right manages to pull it off.

Because everyone on the left is too scared to vote for smaller parties and lose their vote if they don't make it.

More radical parties always have it easier to convince people to vote for them despite that.

I really wish we had ranked choice voting here...
