    I might risk voting 3rd party if this election wasn’t a choice between boring corporatists and 100% concentrated evil.

    The stakes are just too damn high to risk letting Trump get back into the White House again.

      The elections will always be between “boring corporatist and 100% concentrated evil”. Every election feels like it’s the most important one. You just gotta suck it up and vote third party regardless.

      Honesty is refreshing. I’m voting for Harris because I don’t want to see Trump’s orange face every week. Yes, I know what she is. Yes, I know what that makes me. I’ve made my peace with it. No, I don’t blame others who feel differently.

      it’s not worth it until first past the post is removed.

      Until then it’s mathematically impossible for a third party candidate to win. Focus your energy instead on removing first past the post, then you have a chance

        The only time I went third party it wasn’t to win. It was because I saw it as two main candudates so shirty that there was a good chance for third party to snag more voters than usual, possibly enough to gain slightly better recognition in the future.

        The monkey’s paw curled.

        We got Trump. The recognition came as irrational blame for Trump.

        I won’t make the same mistake of voting for someone I think would do the best job. Now it’s merely an effort to keep the worst viable candidate out.

      This is the way.
