    So you’re saying that protests votes don’t work?

      No vote “works” if you don’t have enough of them. It’s kinda the defining feature of voting.

      What definitely doesn’t work is trying to force voters to choose between “crumbling, already bad status quo” and “rapid fall into fascism” over and over. It’s just not a great motivator.

        So, protest voting worked in this case?

            So… protest votes don’t work. Got it. Thanks. I knew it was one or the other.

              lmao what

              With that logic Dems don’t work cause they lost this once, and so should never be voted for again.

              But hey guess what I got something else to vote for anyway! And we can maybe not even call it a protest vote and just call it a… vote.

                So… protests votes DO work. I must have been confused earlier. I think I understand now.

                Protests vote when you’re not getting the perfect outcome, and everyone else can kindly insert themselves under the that bus headed this way.

                Super fantastic! Thanks for clearing this up. Again, I knew it was one or the other.
