unless youre actually voting for a third party, not voting for the shinier turd is still a worthless position that does not improve anything

[–] stella@lemm.ee 5 points 1 year ago

Yeah, I think voting for a third party is fair.

I mean, voting 3rd party in the US system is just letting the party you agree least with win... There's no good option :(

i can appreciate that third parties can only become mainstream if folks vote for them while they arent, and that its perfectly possible that there will never be a 'right' time to vote for them

even if you dont think its worth it now, theyre at least using their vote to improve things long term
