    Nah man, no pretending. But there is an evil and a lesser evil. I just don’t see any logic behind not voting for the lesser evil. It will benefit nobody and harm more people. I would vote for a 3rd party in a heartbeat if they had a good campaign run. It’s pretty easy to tell if a 3rd party has made any kind of a splash by election date. In this last US election there were no other options, period. The Democrats suck, I get it, but those that didn’t vote for them are making things worse.

    I generally believe it’s important for people to view third party options as viable, because really they are only not viable if we believe them to be. But to have a chance to win that kind of party needs an extraordinarily well spoken and revered leader. In this last election we didn’t have anyone that got the bill

      The lesser evil should stop being worse than the previous lesser evil every fucking time.

      Democrats chose losing policy. They knew it was losing policy and did it anyway.

          The part where you blame the voters when the party chose a policy that they knew they wouldn’t vote for.

          What part of “unconditional support for genocide is a losing issue” did you miss?

          It’s a losing issue no matter how much you hate the voters for it.

            I’m blaming the party as well. But nothings perfect in life, when it comes down to it you have to choose the best available option. Bloods on people like yours hands, no matter what kind of excuses you want to try to make. Good job making it easier for the fascists

              I voted for harris.

              I also knew she was going to lose because she supported genocide. You’re carrying water for the genocidal long after the election.
