that cgpgrey video takes liberties (to say the least) with the truth, making logical leaps and asserting opinion as fact. i think it should not be used as a source of "good" information unless the information you want is "why does everyone think two party systems are inevitable without proof?" or maybe "how can i tell people who won't fall in line they're stupid while sounding academic?"

What pool of voters do you think are gonna be drawn mostly to a green party ticket? It’s not gonna be republican voters
the pool who don't like war and environmental destruction
Democrats, on the other hand are a much broader tent. They encompass everybody else that isn’t Is die hard republican.
no, they don't. if that were true then no one would vote for any party except democrats and republicans. that's not the case, so you're incorrect.
this is misinformation. the votes must be counted for whoever the voter chooses.
they said they would vote for a so called third party. that's voting against fascists.
the only people responsible for a candidate winning are the people who voted for them..a vote for any other candidate is a vote against Trump
I don’t know anything more disturbingly capitalist than to perceive intelligent living beings as commodities.
intelligent is a relative term. but i can certainly show you something more disturbingly capitalist: exploiting people for profit.
Growing less profitable is not a natural cause of death.
no, and it's also not the cause of death for any of the animals we eat or otherwise exploit.
There’s nothing natural about being slaughtered against your will.
this assumes non-human animals have a will to live. this would require an understanding that they, themselves, might die. we have no proof of understanding personal mortality in non-human animals (though, if you have a study that shows otherwise, i would be very interested to see it). therefore, we have no reason to believe nonhuman animals have a will to live.
That’s insane
that's ableist
none of them would live that long without human intervention. that's an artificial lifespan.
all media is propaganda
