I came up with a ridiculous, hyperbolic example that would still result in a victory for Trump to demonstrate that no amount of effort from third party voters would sway the election, even if they could all agree on who the best third party candidate was. Apparently hardcore leftists are so dense you thought I was saying it could actually happen.

But thank you for your honesty. Please, support your third party candidate. I'd love to see them grow, truly. But I sincerely hope you don't think they actually have a chance, not while the people who operate the DNC are breathing.

You're the reason Trump is winning, because you refused to criticize Biden and the Dems, and not grow another party as an option.

I do criticize Biden. I have also written three paragraphs in this thread already about why a third party winning the presidency is impossible, and thus voting for Biden is necessary to prevent Trump taking office. Good to see leftists are just as incapable of defending their positions as always.

Voting third party is great at the local level. Voting third party at the national level when they don't already have a hold anywhere else does not even grow the party. It just wastes your vote.

I do tire of conversing with trolls.

No, you don't you are openly trying to gather support for his geriatric ass.

Voting third party is the only reasonable option.

Not trolling, just the one who understands democracy.

Which is it, do you not understand FPTP voting, do you think that voting for a third party candiate at the presidential level will convince anyone who is not already a member of the green party to switch, or are you really this dense?

We could have an entirely separate conversation about why the Green Party in specific sucks, not least because the candidate they put forward thinks vaccines cause autism, but if you can't be convinced that voting third party doesn't do anything I don't want to talk to you anymore at all.

If your next response is less than three sentences long I'm going to block you.

[–] goldenlocks 1 points 4 months ago (1 children)

You don't understand FPTP voting. It's a common system, you can read about it and see many countries have parties that rise and fall in power, it's not limited to 2 parties, you are simply a victim of propaganda.

Because you can't accept you are wrong. That's why you block.
