Actually they are designed to make people vote third party. Critical voter mass moving to third party is the only option to end the duopoly political system that literally everybody agrees is bad and undemocratic.

Gas lighting people into believing there is only 2 choices when there isnt is how this corrupt system maintains its power.

That's a great way to just give the facists more power due to the spoiler effect. Until first past the post is abolished the most a third party can accomplish is cannibalizing whatever party they most closely align with.

Another great way to give fascists more power is to vote for a geriatric procorporate genocide supporting trash candidate in the Democrat primaries.
