Dems still trying to shame people to vote for Genocide lmao.
- Yeah, I'm sure Trump will help Gaza all day long if elected...
  You have the choice between someone who doesn't care enough and someone who doesn't care at all. I'll vote for the one who doesn't care enough.
  
  I believe Trump already made the comment to just glass Gaza.
  
  And then they love to pretend that there's no other candidates 🤣
  
  I definitely have a better opinion of people who vote for third party candidates than people who don't vote at all. A major problem with our current elections is that it's far more mud-slinging about the opposition than positivity. If the race becomes a little bit less two-party, candidates might start talking about their advantages, rather than deriding the opponents.
  That said, it will still do nothing healthy for this election - it's a long-term strategy, in a world where a bad president can do so much damage in the short term.
  
  Thank you stranger! I completely agree. I can't keep track of what I've said and what threads, but my whole basic idea is if you're not in a swing state then vote third party. I completely agree it's a long term strategy.

  Thanks I made it myself 👈😎
  
  There aren't.
  
  You've clearly never heard of 3rd party candidates then! If you have heard of them, I want you to ask yourself why you feel compelled to so overly simplify a situation that you boil it down to a blatant lie.
  
  They don't matter in a first past the post election. They're the functional equivalent of not voting, or voting for Mikey Mouse.
  
  Did you ask yourself why you felt the need to lie before?
  
  I didn't lie. There's no other candidates. You can write whatever name you want, but only either Joe Biden or Donald Trump will win.
  
  Okay when you blatantly lie like that. I know there's no reasoning with you. It's like when Trump supporters refused to admit when he's lied about something. You just told me something about third party candidates but also told me they don't exist. You're clearly contradicting yourself and you clearly know better.
  3rd party candidates clearly do exist. Third party candidates have even won elections in this country. I'll admit it's been a long time. Do you realize the primary obstacle third parties face is the very mentality you're exhibiting? If we don't organize and try to actually do better, we will never do better.
  I don't think speaking with you will be productive, so this will probably be my last message to you. Good luck dude✌️😎
  
  3rd party candidates clearly do exist
  They effectively do not. It will have the exact same outcome as not voting.
  Waaaah I'm gonna leave and go cry to my mommy
  You do that, champ
- Don't just think about the position of president. Think about the thousands of appointments they make. It's not voting for 1 position, it's voting for an entire branch of government, potentially 2. Whatever you think about them, remember that it's gonna be either Biden or Trump appointing all those positions, so even if you hate both of them equally, add up all the incredibly powerful positions they appoint and compare the sum of it all. It's a compounding magnitude, so I cannot imagine how anyone can not have a preference when you are considering the full reach and impact that the 1 position has. Supreme court justices, federal judges, agency and department heads, countless secretaries, regulatory board heads, ambassadors and more and more, plus all the influence on positions those appointees have below them.
  
  Biden ignores all his staffers telling him to stop supporting Genocide.
  The good Biden staffers have quit
