Hello folks, this thread will be talking about why I hate political parties. This thread will mainly focus on US political parties. There are a lot more political parties. Enjoy!
This thread will be a shorter version and not a long thread. Medium read.
Why I Hate Political Parties in the United States
For an introduction, political parties have ruined the United States and other nations. Political parties have divided people throughout centuries and made America, weak. America is feeble because of division created by political parties. George Washington warned against political parties in the United States of America. People in America were beginning to divide, based on political relations to a party. Two parties were created out of this mess, the Federalists, and the Democratic-Republicans. Federalists supported a big federal government, educated people in government, and promoted a national bank. The Democratic-Republicans promoted a strong state government, the American people in government, and promoted agriculture. Two people mainly represented these parties, Alexander Hamilton and Thomas Jefferson; excellent people. Political parties had divided two people in government. Paving the road for America.
Throughout the time in America, political parties have caused hassle in America. Americans have come to dislike nearly everything about modern campaigns. 'The new style has brought out aspects of politics that were once largely out of sight. Ambition, manipulation, and deception have become as prominent as issues of policy and leadership' (HistoryNews). American people are sick and tired of fake promises from political candidates. It's almost always the same rhetoric "I will support you, I will represent you, I will care for you." But they only care about the special elite and people who put money in their pockets.
Political parties have created difficulties for the government to function. If another party has an idea to push forward, the other party rejects it, and it eventually does not get passed. But if the other party has more House and Senate seats, they can pass it. Dysfunctional and oblivious government politics.
Another reason is that political parties attack the other candidate, rather than focusing on the issues. The media constantly releases pieces attacking Presidents throughout the United States. Other political parties will destroy candidates, on the other side, into a million pieces. For example, Andrew Jackson vs. John Quincy Adams. John Quincy Adams couldn't get anything done because of Andrew Jackson, people in government, attacking him.
The final reason I hate political parties in the United States is that people throw protests because of them. I'm not arguing that people shouldn't have free speech, I'm talking about riots in the streets. This happened under the Trump presidency and is still going on, other political parties causing disturbances because of somebody else winning. It makes America look weak and other countries can take advantage of us.
Thanks,
