It's obvious from the way they engage with others here, they want you to not vote so trump has an easier time winning.

Hell not having a good idea on what harm reduction in politics is negates efforts of socialist activism

It's typically a safe assumption as most of the time when people are talking about voting third party the third party candidate is most similar to the Democrat on the ballot.

But of course if the person wasn't going to vote if the third party candidate wasn't on the ballot then their lack of a vote is ensuring that the candidate they like the least has an easier time winning.

Liberals and moderates by not materially compromising with leftists and progressives

They are way more likely to do so than Republicans that's for sure

All you have to do is look at voting records to see that

All you have to do is see the break down for who voted for the Respect for Marriage Act for an easy example

And by not voting you're ensuring that positive change will have a much harder time occuring.

Local elections are very important and pushing for more progressive local candidates can help to influence policies on the national stage. And if there's no candidates you like in your locality you can try to run yourself.

There's more elections than just the election for president.

There's no such thing as the perfect candidate so voting for the person you hate the least is the best option for preventing the person you hate the most from winning.

I'm not a fan of Biden but he's way fucking better than trump and his fellow Republicans.

Don't make the mistake of believing that just because you haven't seen something that it doesn't exist.

We all exist in media bubbles and in those bubbles we miss a lot. By seeing this meme you could say that your media bubble has finally bumped into the bubble where people openly talk about not voting.

Hell there's comments in this comment section on the note of not voting.

Local elections are also very important and really need participation. Like if you wanted that fee for mail-in voting to go away that would likely be a decision made by local politicians.

And without voting there's no hope for change for the better

Congratulations on ensuring our system has a harder time improving

It was breathtaking in person

I'd say one of my favorite things is seeing the sunset over the ocean

For me: hunting mostly.

A very small percentage of children.

There are more age groups of children than just toddlers.

I personally support laws requiring gun owners to properly store firearms.

It's an incredibly stupid movement where people are saying that they won't vote as a protest to not liking either candidate.

Usually said by people who have little to lose if Republicans win, seem to think revolution is a viable possibility if Republicans win, and/or think that by not voting something good might happen.

Also people who don't understand that our system is a First-Past-the-Post system and the only group of people who are trying to get support for not voting in this election are people on the left.

So I'm not as many words: people trying to guarantee a victory for trump.

just overthrow the government

That's far easier said than done, and honestly even saying that feels like an understatement

Should all minimum wage jobs be closed between the hours of 9pm and 4pm? No, in fact a decent amount (if not all) need done in some capacity throughout the day.

Or another one that those kinds of people don't like to be asked: So if the minimum wage is for children (high school students getting their first jobs), what should be the minimum wage for adults?

She (and the people like her) fail to grasp so much about their arguments it's infuriating. They feel that those who work minimum wageshould suffer. Usually they'll talk around saying it, but that's the just of what they say.

Different strokes for different folks

Data from the CDC for gun deaths that you rank per capita by state.

Seems like state with more open gun laws have more deaths via guns, funny that.

I'm not even sure what that means

I assemble 1 and keep the box
