    Since I’m helping out today, I’ll bite.

    They would have more success opening a conversation with someone if they forgo the insults:

    Okay then, Mr Tankie McRussianbot, let’s all hear what fucking genuis solution…

    Instead I suggest they try something like “I am not very familiar with alternatives to our two party system, what would you suggest instead?”

    I’m not their friend, I have no desire to be their friend, and honestly I was being restrained in my response b/c they were being such an asshole. But I figure it’s usually worth a try to respond with the information on the off chance they’ll read and change.

    If their feelings got hurt by the response to the angry, aggressive, insulting comment, then I’m not particularly bothered or interested.

    Hopefully, this helps them have better interactions with others in the future.

      Looks like you’re really dumb and were replying to someone else completely. However, I appreciate your links and will educate myself on the topic by reading the stuff you provided; thank you.
