In a first-past-the-post voting system with winner-take-all representation, it’s literally impossible for a 3rd party to be elected to the presidency. If you’re really committed to changing that, you’d vote for the people who are more likely to enact ranked choice voting and proportional representation (regardless of party)… and only at the local/state level since that’s where voting laws and regulations are made. Voting 3rd party for president does nothing but dilute the vote of the intended opposition party. Greens dilute the Dem vote, Libertarians (both big and small) dilute the Republican vote. To pretend otherwise plays right into the game the two big parties have always played.

There have been like 3 times at the national level in America where voting third party actually worked. It is very clearly a problem, but voting third party doesn't fix that problem.

Fix the problem that makes a 2-party system the only viable option, then vote for third parties. Or stay home and drink or get high. The results for the political landscape will be much the same. Granted, at this point in the game, you're likely better off waiting for the collapse of America and putting something more effective in the new constitution.

This is why we're fucked

Thanks for letting us know what you did

Weird, somehow I already tagged you as 'both sides' and then you said this. Big time coincidence.

Yes, we owe the Democrats our votes no matter what they do, or don’t do.

easy to argue against straw men ain't it.

I guess if you just create the argument in your head, it's pretty easy to shut it down huh
