It's the dunk tank.
This is where you come to post big-brained hot takes by chuds, libs, or even fellow leftists, and tear them to itty-bitty pieces with precision dunkstrikes.

and a concerted media campaign to fabricate that consensus mindset. what a wacky election, i can't imagine a perot presidency. bush sr had the full backing of the cia, of course, and clinton was clearly acceptable, but perot was against the gulf war and what eventually became the rules based order we find ourselves in. he was too much of a liability to imperial ambitions, i think they would have pulled additional shenanigans to prevent him from being elected.
but this election could be wackier. what happens when enough people think their vote is wasted no matter what?
I honestly think that Perot (whose politics outside of his anti-war stance are just as idiotic and self-serving as every other politicians) gave the DNC and the RNC enough of a scare to lock everything down and ensure that a third party would never even taste national election success again.
oh he was a tool of capital through and through, for sure
