    Yeah, but you can’t primary the Dems thoroughly enough before 26 or 28.

    So the only VIABLE option in the near term to STOP FASCISM is voting Dem.

    But I’m sure a bunch of fools will still do the 3rd party thing come 28.

    Normally I’d be fine with them voting 3rd party in midterms, but in case anyone hasn’t noticed, things are getting pretty dark here. This is not the time to fuck around with a 3rd party, even for midterms.

    Vote 3rd party in local/state elections AFTER Americans stop getting executed in the street by masked federal goons. And don’t vote 3rd party for president until a 3rd party can actually win the presidency.

      Its almost like democrats should have fixed the source of the spoiler effect by replacing First-past-the-post voting in states they control.

      Wake up babe, it’s the most important election f our lifetime again.

      Democratic apologists have literally been saying this for 26 years. Your strategy of Vote Blue No Matter Who is what brought you to this point.

      You want to just have the problems go away without any struggle. And it’s not gonna happen.
