    Nobody said oppressed. Repressed. The word is repressed, as in all beliefs that don’t fall in line with the two primary parties are repressed.

      are your beliefs being repressed? or are people just telling you not to waste your vote and risk a trump victory?

      no self respecting leftist will shut up about how you can’t vote your way out of fascism and you need to be doing more. come on. do better.

        Any self-respecting leftist can see that voting is a civic duty. If you can’t even vote for your interests at the ballot box, you’ve failed democracy.

          obviously you have to vote. but you can’t just vote. and if you vote third party you might as well not have voted.
