The progressive fixation on “oligarchy” is a diversion from class struggle.

In my opinion, third party is viable if it's built from the local level up but not if just pushed in at the top in the national elections. That's why I would generally consider it not useful in the national election but would encourage it at local and maybe state level. As much as I'd love for the Democratic Party collapsed, I don't think that's really going to happen until people think they have a viable alternative, and that's most likely going to be built up from the local level. Once there's a more viable option established and widely known, then maybe it'll work out at the national level.
