The difference between terrible and more terrible is a thin line. If you think the world is only binary choices then you're the type of person leftist rail against. There's more choices but Democrats would have you believe there isn't.
Not in this voting system there isn't. I don't know why online third party cranks are so fucking abysmal at game theory. It's blatantly obvious that only two outcomes are possible on election day but you lot think you can manifest third party viability through shit posting.
It's not game theory when you see the two parties as the same side of the same coin which is what people like you fail to realize. Let me put it this way, there are Democrats still voting FOR Trump appointees, and it's not a few of them. If they're really "The Resistance" like they want us to think they can start but not voting with the fascists. But hey, blue no matter who, right?
Same side of the same coin? That is...not the expression.
I'm pretty sure Trump could actually nuke Iran and you'd still be on here talking about how Harris would've been bad...exactly how I was saying in my first response.
There's a time to vote for an alternative in the US system. That time is during the primary. If you actually gave a shit you'd be advocating for ranked choice, a change to the funding system of elections, or both. But nope, you're just another one of Trump's useful idiots.
Yes, because evil is still evil. What in the living fuck do you not understand supporting Harris was still supporting Israel as well. Jesus fucking christ you people tire the fuck out of me with your inane vote blue no matter who lesser of two evils bullshit. As long as you continue to play with their games they'll continue to never improve. So you can continue and hope for harm reduction or not vote, campaign for those you would like to actually see and refuse to vote for those you don't like at all. Because right now, Newsom is looking like the Democrat's candidate of choice and he's goddamn awful of a politician and person.
