I agree, and strongly believe that the most helpful way forward in this respect would be to implement ranked choice voting, which is just about as out-of-reach to most Americans as a viable third-party candidate is today.
Maybe the next try at democracy will be the one that sticks.
Because she is the candidate of the largest party representing policies you “support” like universal healthcare. You could have spent the last 4 years helping build the party, or another party, or making your own party but instead did nothing.
So despite the fact that I don’t even have the energy to walk more than half an hour, you expect me to go canvassing? Do you want to put me in a wheelchair and push me around?
Jill “sitting-between-Putin-and-convicted-felon-and-unregistered-foreign-agent-Michael-Flynn” Stein who collected millions for a recount and then just kept it?
You absolutely can. By voting for someone who has no chance of winning. It’s purely a thing to make you feel good about yourself. And no one will know either. You could claim you voted for Cornel West but actually vote for Trump and no one will be able to say you were lying.
I’m never going to get what I want, so I vote pragmatically. And stopping the guy who literally says he’s going to be a dictator seems like a pretty fucking important thing to do.
Who exactly am I supposed to vote for that has a credible chance of beating both Trump and Biden?

I would love an alternative to our current FPTP system, but I don’t see it happening.
Then get off your lazy ass and make another party more popular
That’s not an answer. Who am I supposed to vote for?
Jill Stein, you could be gathering support for her, but instead complain and vote for either of the right wing candidates
Jill Stein does not have a credible chance of beating both Trump and Biden and why is it my job to do that?

Dude, I’m seriously ill. I don’t eat solid food. I just got back from the Mayo Clinic. I can’t walk the dogs without getting worn out.
This is not my job. I can’t even hold a regular job.

That sucks, but it’s all our job. Trying my best to get you and everyone else being exploited by our medical system help!

You mean Jill “Russia funded but slightly less than Trump” Stein lol?
Jill “sitting-between-Putin-and-convicted-felon-and-unregistered-foreign-agent-Michael-Flynn” Stein who collected millions for a recount and then just kept it?
Yeah, nah. Never.
You can vote for whoever you want, at this point pretty much everyone has a chance to beat these two mad men
That’s ludicrous. You show me one poll that agrees with you.
You are supposed to vote for the best nominee not according to made up poll
Maybe you throw your vote away on someone who has zero chance of winning, but that’s not how I vote.
Votes aren’t like your bigmac, you can’t throw them away

Children in gaza and in the middle east will be the judges of your vote
How many Palestinian children’s lives will voting for a candidate that will definitely lose save?
