    A few things; Republicans haven’t won the popular vote in over 20 years, a rural (republican) vote is objectively worth more than most democrat votes

    How many republicans do you think are not voting? Probably much fewer than leftists (democrat votes)

    You ARE getting Pizza or Nuggies, you can vote for either, but you are still getting Nuggies or Pizza for dinner, in this case Nuggies is more likely, because, as mentioned before, people voting for Nuggies typically have a vote that’s worth more than those who usually vote for Pizza

      This is a make-or-break moment – we must pressure the Democrats to change their position on Gaza before the elections in November. While we should all be doing absolutely everything we can to stop the genocide, the bare minimum right now is demanding that a presidential hopeful, in need of our votes, commits to ending US funds to Israel. It is not that complicated. source

        What do you think not voting will change about Gaza? Nothing.

        There are other issues to be voting about, as much as I would love to vote for someone who wants to end the genocide, I’ll at least vote for someone who isn’t trying to take away medicare from tens of millions of people with no plan to replace it, or someone who’s for an unrealized gains tax, or someone who wants to cap medical prices, or restore women’s rights.

          It’s interesting that people assume that someone is not voting, or voting for third parties, just because they’re critical of Harris.
