    if you’re not American, I would understand that to be a reasonable suggestion. not how it works here, though.

    under our system of voting, third party votes are less than worthless. I would rather that not be the case, but here we are.

    If you’re American or if you’re not simply ignorant of that fact, I assume you’re salivating at the idea of getting a reluctant biden voter to vote third party to help secure your authoritarian party win.

      Authoritarian party win? Do you even know who I was going to vote for? I guess any third party means authoritarian to you? No, and its not just Biden voters, its people who vote for Trump as well. We all need to pick a different canadite now. I’d personally vote for Chase Oliver.

      You may think that’s how the system works, but at it’s root, you can pick other choices, not just one or the other. The more you say that, the more real it becomes, and the more hopeless you make everyone else feel. You have a very nuanced view of how everything works and what type of person I am.
