        Elect better candidates in the primary? This year there is an incumbent. Let’s defeat, not elect, the greater evil.

          And the incumbent is massively funding genocide and is trying to make that funding a closed door black box process.

          Don’t support the rapist con artist fascist. Don’t support the genocidal fascist.

          Only support good people.

            Your hyperbole is ridiculous. Trump actually is those things, and not voting for Biden is equivalent to supporting him. Replace first-past-the-post then vote for whoever you like, until then your obstinance is stupid and self-sabotaging.

        Yes, by making the voter turnout abysmal.

        Don’t give ANY corrupt assholes the stats to allow them to claim they are what America wants.

        If you have noone worth voting for, be loudly disenfranchised.

          This is an excellent quote and fits the situation perfectly

          The DNC is clandestine.

          They hold a primary election to make you feel involved, then they throw a party and put forth whoever they feel like it.

          Same model as the electoral college but with zero accountability instead of virtually no accountability.

          All your vote does is inform The Party that you are buying their horseshit.

              A vote isn’t a say in anything in particular.

              A vote is raising your hand in the attendance check.

              Stop giving corrupt people your attendance.

              Register independent. Vote on laws, not people. Pray the fire smothers without your fuel (your vote) so that we can finally build anew.

        I voted 3rd party in 2016, and guess what happened? Outside of organizing some massive vote for a 3rd party candidate, all you’re doing is preaching to the choir. Ineffectively.

      You support fuckers that literally run ads for far right politicians like Trump, helping them win their primaries so they can get the “easy” win. Not to mention the corruption and the utter fucking stupidity that went into nominating people like Hillary and Biden over Bernie TWO ELECTIONS IN A ROW!

      You got trump into office, and your hostile attitude towards people who don’t unconditionally kiss democrat ass will ensure he returns. I hope some day you realize that and it makes you feel absolutely fucking horrible for making so much horrible shit happen

      I don’t care.

      Lesser evil rhetoric is horse-shit.

      Not to mention Hilary wouldn’t have been any better. If she got in office we would probably still be balls deep in war with Syria. She rigged the DNC and ushered in Trump.

      Don’t regret not voting for her. I do regret voting for Biden’s genocide though.
