      But you do still have to vote for “no backbone” over “actively trying to kill you and the ones you love”

      It is hard to summon the will to vote nationally.

      Which is why I vote for third party/independent. The act of doing what no one else is doing has a certain allure, and gets me to the voting booth.

        Ok but you’re going to the voting booth to their away your time energy and money, you actually may as well just stay home instead

              I remember seeing the perfect analogy, it was something along the lines of:

              Voting third party without doing any of the work having a third party requires is like trying to add a door to your house by walking into the wall where you would like a door to be.

              To be clear, I am not happy with this TWO party democracy we have.
