    You’re repeating yourself.

    Supporting third-party candidates isn’t about splitting the vote

    …but that’s the practical effect

    —it’s about pushing for the reforms necessary to break the two-party monopoly that limits our democracy

    …which you expect to happen, if Trump wins?

    And no, I’m not a “republican muppet” just because I am not voting for your candidate. If I wanted to vote republican, then I’d vote republican.

    I don’t think you want to vote Republican. I don’t think you want a Republican government. I think you consider it an acceptable alternative to sacrificing principles. And therein lies the issue.

    The question at the heart of it all - and try to answer just yes or no - is this:

    Do you think Trump is preferable to Harris?

      They are both exactly the same to me.

      I don’t like either one. I won’t vote for either one.

        “The demented felon rapist backed by christofascist authoritarians seeking to abolish democracy is just as bad as the lawyer that promises tax credits to the lower and middle class, banning price gouging and has sued Big Oil in the past, whose running mate publicly endorses RCV which would make additional parties viable”

          And if your candidate is so awesome and is such a hero, then you have no worries about winning the election. So why so mad?
