Really you don’t need to read more than one chart:

If you vote for anyone other than Harris, you’re voting for Trump:

    And your hopeless manifestation approach to breaking the two-party duopoly isn’t entirely self-serving?

    It won’t accomplish anything. You will never win any election against the two-party behemoths without Democratic reform.

    But you folks don’t ever advocate for that, just unqualified spoiler candidates, and never in local elections where independents have more of a chance.

    Even if your heart is in the right place, you’re a liability to progress because you care more about Democrats being imperfect than you do about Republicans being fascist.

      You say spoiler as if we would ever vote for your candidates. Anyway. There could be no third party candidates on the ballot and we would not vote for your appointed candidates

      I see both of them as being fascist, the Democrat ratchet effect enables right-wing fascism to take hold.

        I don’t think anybody is hoping to convince you True Believers who have fully incorporated this into your personality. The spoiler effect is more about other people who maybe haven’t thought about it so much and don’t realize the mistake they are making.
