Genuine question. I feel like there’s too much division and that people should find common ground. I really don’t like the two-party system in the US either.

George Washington didn’t want political parties either. So whatever you are it’s patriotic af.
I think parties are fine but a multi party system usually works much better since parties will have to make coalitions and will usually shit on each other a bit less.
GW specifically didn’t want the US to devolve into a 2-party system.
IMO single party or multi party system can both result in a functional representative democracy.
Are the examples of single party functional representative democracies? I have no clue…
The USA didn’t have a 2 party system for GW’s first 2 terms.

I would argue that if the system completely lacked merit, than the USA would have dissolved given the inherant fragility of any newly founded nation.
