“i sTILl not goNna vOtE” average disillusioned leftie
Them: “If people considered a third party candidate, this wouldn’t be happening!”
Me: “Name the candidate that has a reasonable chance of beating both Trump and Biden.”
Them: “…”
Except once. I had one person argue with me, seriously argue with me, that Cornel West could win the presidency because all kinds of strange things happen in the universe and you can’t prove he won’t!
It’s almost like… there’s a reason these 3rd party candidates aren’t making it onto the big party tickets.
To all the upvoters: Average disillusioned leftie here.
Saying “I won’t support Biden in the primary.” is not the same as "i sTILl not goNna vOtE”.
I do not want ANY GOP to win any power, ever, anywhere.
We were saved by the young vote in the midterms and Biden has almost entirely lost those voters. Like it or not Biden is deeply unpopular. And I believe Biden would likely lose to Trump.
So how is pleading for a candidate from the DNC who stands a better chance at winning against the GOP an irrational position?
Please reexamine your politics - I am not your enemy.
Yup. I agreed with the last 20 publications who tried to raise the alarm too.
Yep. And we are just as much of people as everyone else. Our elimination won’t be bloodless. And once they get a taste for blood they won’t stop and they’ll be harder to stop since their political violence is now established
It’s LGBT now, hispanics later, black people much later, then probably just Democrats in general.
Anyone who isn’t white, Christian, and Republican isn’t welcome. And if you’re not a man, you’re not in control.
and yet people will still say both sides are the same
Yeah the Republicans want to drag me out into the street, murder me, and then drag my corpse through the town behind their Dodge Ram 1500 or Ford F150.
Democrats don’t like that and would prefer Republicans not do it, but most of them won’t do anything to stop it as long as they’re not forced to watch it happen and can pretend it’s not happening.
A real, but grotesque, difference.

That doesn’t sound like the Democrats I know! They would post a comment on social media about how sad they are about it and then say “vote blue, no matter who!” before defending some softer form of transphobia as a middle ground.
Whoa hell no, I’d stop the fuck outta that, at step 1. Who the fuck are you??
E: downvotes because you’re afraid to help? Aight then.
