I am sure shilling your political party is a priority to you

Where the hell have I done that? Go read my comments. And pull your head out. I'm quite obviously no fan of neolibs.

but most of us just looking to shake things up.

Then actually DO SOMETHING! Because what you are proposing is doing LITERALLY NOTHING. Not voting does nothing. Even third party is mathematically doing nothing. You might not like that, but it's true.

If you want actual change, vote for progressives in local elections. Vote out the neoliberals one by one. And in the mean time, build alternative power, organise in your workplace, unionise, build mutual support networks.
