I’m not sure what about the logic of “we’re getting one of these two” isn’t getting through.
As soon as #2 stops being true I’ll have to reevaluate.
I will celebrate #1 being false if I ever live to see first past the post die in this country but I’m not holding my breath.
I get over what I wish would happen and deal with facts.
many liberals do not have a cutoff point here. if Democrats were having people executed in the streets, they would argue that more people would be executed in the streets under Republicans, so leftists who don’t vote Democrat are morally bankrupt and effectively on the side of the Republicans.
oh, wait, that’s literally their argument for this election, it’s just that said streets and people happen to not be the good ol’ US of A.
Are you referring to the wholly justified war in which our allies regularly warn citizens with loudspeakers, dropped flyers, and phone calls where they’re headed next so civilians can evacuate?
Due to this well thought out reply I have reconsidered my position /s
nope!
What other option?
This bullshit is exactly what I was talking about. “C’mon, let’s vote third party. I know we can’t win, but morals.”
And elect Trump? Fuck no.
You keep acting as if #1 above won't be true at some nebulous point in the future. Why?
The same thing(s) that happened last time, probably. Rightoids will cry false election, lots of lawsuits, etc.
