Feel free to start that conversation (or thread). It's not like you (or anyone else) are discussing that, or am I wrong? Have I missed that discussion?
I've heard this before and I can get behind this but when I ask people what they suggest they usual don't have much more to add. Hence my posts in this thread about lack of action... So... What do you suggest?
1. Stop the hate. The forum moderators should keep this thread free of hate. There is enough hate in this world to keep adding to it. Keep the thread focused 100% in facts and policy talk and not what ifs. Anything else related to Trump's past, personal life (his hair, the golden showers, etc) should be deleted, attacks on trump's (or anyone else) supporters too, they had their (bad) reasons to vote him, just like those voting Hillary.
Trump is the president now and the time to do something about it's gone. But 2020 is just around the corner, so instead of focusing on hating and being angry, its time to think how we gonna stop another status quo puppet to get into power.
2. yeah, maybe a creation of a thread "alternatives to the status quo" "Changing the world order" or something like that would be useful. We could use that thread to give tribune to alternative political parties and candidates with whom we might feel represented. Not only in USA, but also UK. Help spread the word not only here, but to our friends, family, co workers, etc. Its not that easy, because usually you would be on the minority (at least is my case), but as someone said, if you know you are talking the truth, then speak up no matter what, even if only 1 person receives the message.

I don't know. Man i wish i have the right answer for you and the solution. The only thing i know is that the key is getting the people together behind an ideal.
Right now hate and fear keep us blind and divided. We all want the same thing (quality health and education, affordable housing, good paying jobs, a clean environment to live in) but we are too busy fighting each other to make it happen. We are doing the job for the top 1% who don't want that to happen.
When someone talks sense and the truth, like Bernie did, it feels only natural to rally behind him and support him. He was a beacon of light in middle of the DC darkness, but he was swiftly taken care of. It was beautiful while it lasted. Too bad their supporters went from love to hate after he got fecked by Hillary.
The green party its the one with the similar ideas to Bernie, so unless some other option arises, shift support from the unhappy democrats and republicans to them would be a start. Maybe try to convince Bernie to run under their banner next election... start a petition?.
The current system is so well engineered it seems almost impossible to change anything, but impossible is nothing. We need nothing short of a miracle to make it happen, but as long we have the chance to vote, its still 100% on our hands. Believe.
USA is one of the richest countries in the world, with enough resources to provided a nice quality of life to every single one of its citizens, and its not happening. If time after time, decade after decade, we change from democrat to republican and vice versa, and we don't get even close to that, on the contrary, every time further away, then its obviously time to stop and think, what can i do differently? vote differently next time is the first an easiest option.
ps. why people keep thinking i support Trump? I just think he provides an opportunity for 2020, an opportunity for a hard reset. The overlords have taken the piss for too long, and the fact we had to choose between two jokes like Hillary and Trump is more than enough evidence...
