If you’re American you have to vote for either Trump or Biden though, you don’t have the luxury of voting neither.. in a two party system an abstention equals a vote for the winner.
Yeah, Biden funds a genocide in Palestine. Trump would do the same (he did move the embassy to Jerusalem..) plus ALSO aiding the genocide in Ukraine as he is already doing with his aid cockblock policy.
There are times when the genocide supporter is the lesser evil. I don’t envy your country one bit.
i fully expect to have other options on my ballot
That’s cope though.. as they are not going to get nearly enough votes to win, those candidates are irrelevant. It’s stupid but that is how it is. A vote for them is functionally speaking the same as not voting. Like yeah sure you’ll have “sent a message”, but it’s still a virtual vote for the winner. And you don’t get to complain about him: you could have helped by voting for the other one.
It sucks that you have to choose the lesser of only two evils (assuming your vote even counts, because lol electoral college) but that is the American way.
> you don’t get to complain
stop me
a vote for them is not functionally the same as not-voting. it counts for them. suggesting it doesn't is just more election misinformation.
>you’ll have “sent a message”
the only message sent by a vote is "this is who I want to win". if you want the genocide enablers to win, you can vote for them. if you want the law and order candidates to win, vote for them.
They will exist in name only. They're not real candidates.
they'll really be on my ballot.
You can write in "Mickey Mouse" if you want to, same effect
no. writing in mickey mouse is a vote for Mickey mouse. I want to vote for Cornel West or Jill Stein. you're spreading election misinformation
Don’t forget Claudia De la Cruz.
I am suspicious of psl
That’s fair. I’m suspicious of the DSA. Rumor has it that Biden is going to step down before the convention and hand the nomination to Cornel West.
I’m joking, but one can dream.
biden is going to stay in all the way to november to spoil cornel wests chances
