    Not voting is absolutely the wrong move. It signals complacency.

    Voting third party shows that people care enough, but aren’t willing to give power under the current policies/proposed policies. This is also why ranked choice is vastly superior to first past the post. It allows for a more coherent signaling from the people into politics.

      We didn’t have the luxury of not being held hostage by FPTP, WTA, and the absence of a viable “good” choice.

      Yet we still couldn’t unite against fascism.

      And now it’s here, delivered right to our doorsteps, no signature required.

      There’s a more than reasonable chance that any perceived “education” of the dems has become completely moot. The fascists have full control of the government. The checks and balances no longer apply. There are no brakes.
