Because electing Trump would be soooo much better for Gaza…
“I guess it makes them look tough. But to me, it doesn’t make them look tough. They’re losing the PR war. They’re losing it big. But they’ve got to finish what they started, and they’ve got to finish it fast, and we have to get on with life.”
Claudia De La Cruz and Cornell West aren’t on the ballot in enough states to win a ham sandwich.

Stein technically is on the ballot in enough states to win, but she represents a party that continually hovers around 1% or less. The best the Greens have done was under Ralph Nader 24 years ago and is largely blamed for 8 years of George W. Bush.
Only 2 parties are on the ballot in all states, Democratic and Republican. The winner of the election will be from one of those two parties.
You help Harris win or you get a President who thinks Israel needs to wipe out Gaza faster.
So are you picking Harris not because she will not do the same things but because she would do the same things but in a slower fashion and also just to show that we have no other options?
not sure that would classify as a democracy are you trying to enforce the elite’s false dichotomy?
I’m picking Harris because Trump would accelerate the genocide and bring the worst Israeli policies here.
Israel illegally invaded Lebanon to set up a “security zone”:

Trump would do the same for Mexico:
Yeah, this is why I’m voting Trump.
Damn, you are brave for saying that in THIS community!
But hey, I respect and support your right to vote for whoever you want to.
And good on ya for having the balls to say it to this crowd.
They wanna string me up, and all because I vote third party. I can only imagine what your DM’s will be like after admiting your voting for trump! lol
Oh, you’re voting for trump too lol
Oh, you’re voting for trump too lol
No I’m not. I’m actually voting for Jill Stein. But thanks for assuming an entirely wrong thing just because you’re mad!
No, like, you are, implicitly.
“You’ve had two beers, I’m getting a ride home with tequila Tim.”
“He just puked on himself and rinsed his mouth with three more shots!”
“Whatever. I might die and we might kill some randoms on the way home buy maybe you’ll learn your lesson for next time!”
[but] maybe you’ll learn your lesson for next time!
Or you could realize that those two drivers are not your only options. Get a cab, walk to a bus stop, or find a different driver.
It’s not about teaching Tim a lesson. It’s about getting yourself home safely.
What is the other option in American democracy? A third party that’s not going to win?
Do you think that people should ONLY vote for a party that is going to win? That’s not very democratic.
I’m voting third party. And proud of it.
I mean, if you want things to get better, yes.
Voting a third party is fine as long as you understand you are enabling trump and are making things worse for Palestineans and the millions who will suffer from worse climate change outcomes etc.
If that’s something to feel proud about, that’s, well, up to you.
I mean, if you want things to get better, yes.
Like I said, that’s not very democratic. And I’m very glad that not everyone believes that.
Voting a third party is fine as long as you understand you are enabling trump
Nope. If I wanted to vote for Trump, I’d vote for Trump. Like almost half of the country is doing.
If that’s something to feel proud about, that’s, well, up to you.
Very proud to vote third party! Thank you!

Pretending your choices don’t have consequences is childish and not a position worthy of respect.
If you see a toddler running into traffic and you don’t stop them, sure you didn’t make it happen but you are still responsible. Similarly, if you understand the pain that trump will cause and you don’t help stop it, that’s on you.
It’s your choice but be adult enough to admit the consequences of your choice.
Pretending your choices don’t have consequences is childish and not a position worthy of respect.
Pretending that just because one doesn’t vote for democrats, MUST be enabling Trump, is childish and not a position worthy of respect.
Voting for a candidate that aligns with my values is a responsible and thoughtful choice, not a refusal to acknowledge consequences.
Supporting third-party candidates challenges the status quo and pushes for the real change that major parties often ignore.
Blaming voters for the actions of others oversimplifies the complexity of our political system and ignores the importance of advocating for what we truly believe in.
It’s your choice but be adult enough to admit the consequences of your choice.
Yes, it IS my choice, and I explained why I am doing it, and I’m proud of it. Nothing you have said has changed my mind at all. I vote for Green Party and Socialist causes/issues. And I will continue so. Regardless of how many try to bully me or try to sway my vote.
