  • Yes. There is a massive difference between voting third party knowing you will lose and not voting at all. One casts your democratic vote and sets a record of what policies the country wants - one says nothing.

    The country can have my vote. It can know where I stand, and I hope all progressives make it know where they stand. I won’t bend over to two party fascism because it already won, and I won’t have on my conscience voting for a person who poured 30 billion dollars into vastly increasing the police state, and who for months facilitated the killings of thousands abroad.

  • Do you cry this much in real life? I’m talking to you like an adult and all you can do is throw a tantrum.

    I’m a card carrying DSA member. I’m not sure how being left of Biden makes me a Republican, but whatever you have to tell yourself.

  • I never understood the argument that voting third party is “throwing away your vote”. A democracy is supposed to be a system in which everyone can vote for the path that aligns the most with their own values. If that is a third party, you should vote for that. Saying that you shouldn’t because “they probably won’t win and we need to defend democracy!” Is just goofy and bizarre to me. If that’s the system we’re in, there’s no defending democracy - it’s already dead.

    I’m voting third party because that’s what best represents my interests. If one of the other major parties wants my vote, they can represent my interests better. That’s all there is to it. I don’t feel bad in the slightest.

  • Stop supporting them by voting D, then.

    They don’t change if you just post online about it and then keep giving them the only support they care about.

    It’s like saying “I’ll never support this fast food chain that makes hamburgers out of babies!” But then you go there for every single meal. Do you think they care about what you’re saying?
