No such party has ever existed. You want a utopia, it's a pipe dream. Stop believing that some white horse is going to gallop in and have all your issues at heart. Just go NPA and vote on the person and the positions they hold, not the party.
Sure, everyone wants Utopia, which is why they keep voting in the same clowns that didn't provide Utopia last time. Most of this message board is devoted to how dreamy life will be once all the democrats are dead.

I never expect Utopia, but I would like to get us back to something that resembles The Constitution. Nobody in Congress, except for Rand Paul, gives two shits about my agenda. More Rand Paul, less everyone else.

Which party is the champion of my pet issues?
Unicorn Fart Dust Party
I like to call it Libertarian-Light. I'm not on board with a lot of their agenda, but they agree with me on my issues.

I split my ticket. I have been doing that, since 2010. Neither party deserves my loyalty. I explained why I voted for Gillum.

For Senator, Nerd did a write-in, for "Migrant Caravan." I thought it was hilarious.

So you want the utopia list to go into action but you vote for Gillum to "split the ticket". Dunno, seems kind of half assed if you ask me Kath. If you want the Ron Pauls in office, you vote for the Ron Pauls. If you don't like either there is nothing saying you have to mark one of the people on the ticket. Voting for people moving in the exact opposite direction to your list seems pretty counterproductive.

I voted for Darryl Sheppard for Orange County Sherrif, because I'm playing the long game...

Remember that when she signals how superior she is for not actually trying to do anything.

Both parties are actively working against my entire agenda. Gillum is just another lying politician resembling DeSantis 100% in that area. Which team do I pick? Team A candidate who is sleezy lying corrupt pig or Team B candidate, who is a sleezy lying corrupt pig?

To me, they are the same. Gillum is a genius, though. He's actively running from the FBI while being a major contender for the governorship. Anyone who is clever enough to do that can certainly run a state. It does highlight the total incompetence of the FBI as well. I seriously considered sending the FBI an email, letting them know how to find Gillum, but I didn't want any unexpected no-knock raids, so I skipped it.

Lol... if voting mattered, they wouldn't let us do it.

"Both parties"

This is where you are wrong. There are people in those parties working against your interests. The two parties are a political battlefield upon which you must fight them. You are surrendering the battlefield to your enemy because you confuse the battlefield with the enemy.

That is the Dan Carlin Fallacy in a nutshell.
