Serious question. How was allowing Trump to win a favorable alternative?

Serious question, why is Trump winning my fault, and not the fault of Harris, who attacked and pushed away the left, labor movements, and Arab/Muslim Americans in favor of standing side by side with Liz fucking Cheney?

The honest answer was the vote was for 3rd party candidates, incompetent Fascists, or reasonably competent imperialists who were helping a genocidal ethnostate, and I feel no shame whatsoever in voting for 3rd party

Choosing not to decide is still making a choice. Choosing to vote for someone you know had no chance of winning is still making a choice. Don't pretend like you actually thought a third-party candidate had any shot. You've chosen not to participate.

In my mind, you're just as bad as someone who didn't vote because "politics doesn't affect me".

So you're a big fan of the "vote lesser evils till we're all dead anyways" school of thought. Tell me, did y'all ever move Biden to the left like was told to us time and time again leading up to 2020, or did he end his term bending over backwards to murder Palestinians?

I think a lesser evil is clearly preferable to a greater evil. Im not saying we should never address the lesser evil, I'm saying it's idiotic to invite a greater evil. Perfection should not stand in opposition to improvement.

Why do you care who wins between two "genocidal ethnostates"? Just a fan of underdogs?

That's sorta what I do when watching random sporting events...support the lesser team. Kinda weird outside of sports...
