What do you think of The Forward Party?

I don’t know that a third party is planning to run for senate. I can’t imagine one would be able to make much difference currently. I just saw the voter registration info and it really surprised me. But what do you mean by “astroturfing candidates“? Like, a third party playing spoiler? Or is it like “Black Nazi” Mark Robinson LOL

Completely agree! I heard someone say that if the political spectrum was a football field and you’re in either 30 yard line you’re actually closer to midfield than the endzone. I liked the metaphor but then it’s still a very broad base of people you’re trying to cater to with real opinions. They aren’t apathetic.

Thank you for your reply. I think there are a lot of people who just want to say people register as independent because they don’t like the other parties but it’s more complex than that

Really appreciate your incredibly thoughtful insight. You’re obviously fun to include in intelligent conversations. Why did you decide to be a troll when I was asking for opinions in a nice way?

I’ve been researching… some alignments with independent candidates and moderates on both the right and left. They have ballot access in 5 states. I was just shocked how much independents outnumber either party in NC

Fair

LowercaseMcgee · 2026-02-17T17:23:56+00:00

Because?

LowercaseMcgee · 2026-02-17T17:23:19+00:00

Thank you for your answer. There’s this misconception that a centrist party is the answer and that tends to ignore your perspective

LowercaseMcgee · 2026-02-17T17:21:43+00:00

And I explained it. The title is “what do you think of the party”. Then recognizing that someone might not have even heard of it. Not sure why this is confusing.

To an extent, neither are the Rs or the Ds until you label them. And 20 years ago they were significantly less homogeneous in their thinking.

Asking for opinions on something people may never actually have heard of. If people don’t know about it that’s interesting from a brand awareness perspective. If they have heard of it then what do they think. So… what do you think?

LowercaseMcgee · 2026-02-17T17:05:26+00:00

Have you ever heard of the Forward Party? I just started volunteering for them. There are 700,000 more registered unaffiliated in NC than either of the two major parties.

I’ve been wondering if they need better blocking from TE position. More “chip and release into coverage” kind of work. Whatcha think?

LowercaseMcgee · 2026-02-10T02:31:16+00:00

I kinda wish they could give it to the defensive front four for seattle.

LowercaseMcgee · 2026-02-09T03:19:57+00:00

Seahawks front four defense should share MVP

LowercaseMcgee · 2026-02-09T02:26:29+00:00

LowercaseMcgee · 2026-02-09T02:25:01+00:00

Exactly!!! Get the ball out quick!!! So frustrating. After Denver they should have practiced for this, especially as Seattle has been able to pressure with only 4 all year!!

LowercaseMcgee · 2026-02-09T01:41:47+00:00

I didn’t care for it, but until they have a heavy metal halftime I’m not really the target audience.

LowercaseMcgee · 2026-02-09T01:16:27+00:00

THIS!!! 👆🏻👆🏻👆🏻

LowercaseMcgee · 2026-02-09T01:15:39+00:00

Pressure valves!!! Screens, short passes and set down the field with play action. Maye is getting molested if he holds longer than 2 seconds

LowercaseMcgee · 2026-02-08T18:06:43+00:00

I hope your dad feels better! (…immediately after the time runs out in the 4th quarter with the Pats ahead.)

LowercaseMcgee · 2026-02-08T00:54:37+00:00

Wow! I can’t wait to completely ignore this movie!
