The argument centers on how the third party critique is always surrounding democrats, and never republicans. Democrats deserve their blame, but voting third party means empowering republicans, who will amplify the very concepts third party candidates often decry. So much so that it starts to smell of a ruse, cause who could be that short sighted?
The concept of staying home or voting third party means democrats lose seats all down the roster.
I’m voting for harm reduction, not a feel good soap box opinion. I don’t feel good about any of this shit, I just want less dead people and less corruption over the coming years than it would be with Republicans in power.
There is no such thing as harm reduction. Harm is only relocated. If you don’t vote to actually change direction, it is just kicking the can down the road. I think it is good to have pressure from parties outside of Dems. There are tons of people not voting at all that out number any 3rd party voting block. Shift focus to them.
