I hear you man and unfortunately 3rd parties will never be viable with these kinds of Democrats around who won’t support ranked choice or another system of voting.
If you have a couple of thousand like minded individuals, I’d say do a coordinated priest vote with a specific message of your refusing to vote for people who can’t stand up to the GOP even for your 1st amendment rights like those in the Dearborn Abandon movement did.
Otherwise you’d just have to decide if it’s worth it to you to hold your nose and slow walk the decent into fascism or go acceleration and live with the consequences of a quicker decent while continuing to fight for better candidates via progressives in the primaries. No real good options otherwise.
Plenty of independents have raised to power without running as a Democrat. Bernie is a prime example. The question is when people are fed up enough with the duopoly.
No they have not.

Sanders is an outlier as is King. Most others that have been in the independent banner like Murkowski or Lieberman were part of the two parties before.
Feel free to provide citations showing plenty of independents winning. I am just like you, waiting for the people to get fed up with the first past the shitty post but I don’t have faith in Idiot America, both parties included.
