it would scare the fuck out of the two parties

I think seeing over 100k votes for communists might do that at least a little bit. And Greens coming in 3rd.

Maybe so. But I think addressing the culture of non-voting instead of protest-voting is a valid one. It's sucking out political power that exists and could be genuinely powerful if put to use but because people are convinced it's pointless they simply do not bother. A huge amount of power is sitting right there and americans are just culturally propagandised into not using it.
