[Sorry folks. When I submitted the article I had both the URL and added an image file as thumbnail for the article. Somehow the image file replaced the article. Here's the article. Adding a link in here too].

Dude, shut the fuck up. Obviously people know that a 3rd party president will never make it to office; and that's not the fucking point. Its about voicing your opinion; and to blame trump winning on the people who voted third party when it was clearly because the Democratic party fumbled and put forth a candidate that was not elected is incredibly disingenuous. This "your either with us or against us" bullshit is part of why the Democrats lost 2024

Then what's the point, dumbfuck?

What's the point of voting for someone that can't win, and therefore, can't accomplish anything?

and to blame trump winning on the people who voted third party

Why wouldn't I? Voting 3rd party for president is STUPID AS FUCK, and all it accomplished was putting Trump, an anti-democratic felon rapist, closer to the Oval Office. Any dipshit gambling with our future to vote 3rd party in a presidential race deserves to be called what they are. A dumbfuck.

Well you see, the point is to voice that you do not wish to support either party. There is no "gambling" here, because there is no shot in hell I'm going to vote between a Nazi and an unelected figurehead for a political party that promises they care about me or my people when in reality they just pretend they do just to get us to vote for them.

Positively fucking crazy how I'm evil for not voting for (effectively) the same administration that allowed Texas to put razor wire in a river that is firmly Mexican territory. Positively fucking crazy that I didn't want to vote for that, my fucking bad.

I'm sorry for not disregarding my morals so you can feel better about yourself for helping to elect some shitstain who will preach acceptance and tolerance while removing Palestine from the map; I'm sorry for not wanting to vote for someone who will do fucking nothing to change the broken system that got us here in the first place.

The point of voting third party is to voice your discontent with the system. I'm sorry if me refusing to say "yeah I don't like Nazis" loud enough by voting for someone I don't agree with hurts YOUR chances of looking good by "helping get the good guy into office" you virtue signalling prick

Go fuck yourself.
