    It’s simple, if the candidate supports genocide I don’t vote for them. Should be a pretty easy and low bar to pass.

      Don’t be surprised if one party genocides harder

      Don’t cut your nose off to spite your face

      Has it not been explained to you that if you chose not to vote, a choice will be made for you? Or do you think that if you don’t vote- nothing will happen?

      This goes for third party voting as well, because you know that they won’t win. So someone else will be selected. And when one of the choices plan to remove the rights of free human beings, put immigrants in concentration camps, and also happens to be guilty of rape, 34 felonies, is pending dozes more including inciting riots, and a heap of other crimes our system is too taxed to handle all at once…

      This really should be a no brainer. And yet…

      Here we are.

        a choice will be made for you

        If you don’t live in a swing state this is already the case, which is the majority of people, yet everyone automatically assumes that’s not the case

        Kamala Harris has no chance of winning my state anyway, so why shouldn’t I vote for who I want, at least as a show of support since I’ll be there anyway?

          That doesn’t make my point less valid. You do whatever you have the freedom to do. Though I gotta say…

          I’m noticing that there are an awful lot of people here recently whose votes won’t matter so therefore are justified in hitching their wagon to third party candidates. Like…

          A lot.

      If you don’t vote, you don’t get to complain about the results
