Another post that makes me further double down on voting 3rd party. It is because of this mentality that not enough people vote 3rd party to make a difference. Also, I refuse to reward genocide.
I would also like to add Trump being worse isn't a good argument because this administration has let israel do all it wants and given them every weapon and funding.
Not enough people vote third party because it doesn’t make a difference and your accomplishing absolutely nothing
… it’s just how FPTP works, mathematically. It will always devolve into a two party system, even if by some miracle a third party overtakes the republicans or democrats, we would still end up with two parties. FPTP is fundamentally broken like that.
But voting for people that have no chance of winning just contributes to the worse evil
I just want to point out that not only would this miracle help out our population (the US citizens) it would be a tremendous blessing on the whole world. I'm not even exaggerating; I honestly believe that.
All it requires is enough people writing the same name on a piece of paper. Incredible isn't it, how selfish we are as a whole.
