    I guess one man’s vanilla is another man’s mummy wraps.

    And what options? When were we ever given a real choice?

      You have the choice to start right now.

      https://www.fec.gov/help-candidates-and-committees/registering-political-party/

      You could start a Lemmings party if you so choose. It would likely only be able to be a state/local party at first though. That said… There could be several groups of us that create a Lemmings party in various states and eventually merge them into a national party.

      It would be easier to just find someone willing to hold office and start campaigning / setting up and getting their name out there for 2028 but to be honest I do imagine the party creation thing may create a bigger pool of possibilities in the long run. (Aka funding and recognition).

      Maybe the Lemmings party would strive to be like TST to bring science and responsibility to the forefront of a political party.

      Obviously the Lemmings name was a joke, but it would be comical. Especially if it grew and members of the party didn’t even know what Lemmy was
