Unplug.

"The Matrix is a system, Neo. That system is our enemy. But when you're inside, you look around, what do you see? Businessmen, teachers, lawyers, carpenters. The very minds of the people we are trying to save. But until we do, these people are still a part of that system and that makes them our enemy. You have to understand, most of these people are not ready to be unplugged. And many of them are so inured, so hopelessly dependent on the system, that they will fight to protect it."
-- From the Wachowski Brothers' 1999 movie "The Matrix."
Change the first sentence only slightly. Substitute "two-party duopoly" for "the Matrix."
Then prepare to unplug.
In real life, the people still plugged in to the system are not our enemies. Not at all. They just need to be shown that freedom does not exist until they unplug.
Prepare to unplug.
You don't need the system to survive. The system needs you - it bleeds you - so it can survive.
Unplug.
