Holy shit yes they are.
If you vote for a third party in an American election, you’re only giving a vote to your least preferred option.
The rest of the world is counting on you lot to not vote in the literal fascist you’ve got running.
Do not fuck this up.
Vote Harris and hold your nose if you have to, but literally any other vote is actively malicious and will likely hasten the end of the modern world.
I’ve already voted. And I happily voted third party. Thank you! :)
I hope you truly own the part you have played in helping the fascist rise to power if it happens
It will be your fault.
I didn’t vote for Trump though. Thank you!
Yah you could be like me and vote for Jill Stein in protest of the Democrats not being progressive enough, end up with 4 years of fucking Trump instead, and then later find out Jill Stein has been taking money from Russia, the most belligerent enemies of democracy and rule of law on this planet.
So yah, you have other even more shitty options to avail yourselves of until 4 years from now when we’re not even a fucking democracy anymore.
There are other candidates besides Stein though.
Yeah, like the candidate you voted for: Pro-Israel candidate Rachele Fruit. Quoted earlier this year:
And anyone who is interested in reading and learning about the history of Hamas will be convinced that it’s not about liberation. It’s about genocide against the Jews.
And then when called out for it, you were proud of voting for someone who’s supporting Palestinian genocide. Despite complaining about Harris “not doing enough”. You’re either a liar or a hypocrite.
BTW, you might want to be careful spamming more comments with copy/paste nonsense - you already had a bunch removed today for just that reason. Which I guess makes you a spammer, doesn’t?
Yep, I did vote for her. Sent in the ballot yesterday. I’ve never denied it. You’ve posted about it several times and each time I’ve not only admitted it, but said I was happy and proud to. Not sure why you keep posting it. You’re free to do that, but I’ve already made a post about it: https://lemmy.world/post/20821124

Here’s the modlog: https://lemmy.world/modlog/1252
My comments were answering someone who was copying/pasting the same comment about me several times in a row. So I answered each one. Mine were removed and his comments were removed too. Funny how you left that part out. But here ya go:
So let’s recap - in just the past couple of weeks you got a temp ban for trolling and then engaged in spamming replies because…<checks notes> “He started it!”
You like to pretend you get the reaction you do because of your support for third-parties, but in reality it just seems you’re getting back what you put out there. Perhaps if you engaged in good faith in anyway, you wouldn’t receive the reaction you do? But that’s the point, isn’t? You have made yourself literally the worst possible voice for the ideals you pretend to hold. Much like the third party candidates you are so fond of propagandizing for.
You’re free to believe whatever you want about my motivations. Not my concern. Modlog and my post log are public and I’ve posted direct links to both several times. Thank you! :)
Yes they are.
Looks like plenty of people disagree with you.
Looks like even more disagree with you.
Sure, but I’m not running for prez and I’m not creating ads against others who are.
What does that have to do with anything?
Because even tho more disagree with me, that doesn’t matter, because I’m not running for president. It’s the ones who disagree with the idea of there only being two parties, that the Democrats need to worry about–not me. Thanks!
It’s become obvious that you don’t post in spite of critics but because of them. You’re a trumper fueled by your contrarianism. Everyone can see it.
I didn’t vote for Trump. Thank you!
Beg to differ.
Well, if you believe plenty of people don’t disagree with you, then neither you nor the Democrats should have anything to worry about or be upset about when it comes to third parties. Thanks, friend! :)
That would be fine if it weren’t for the fact that the races are so tight that every vote matters. If Harris had a healthy lead on Trump to the point where a couple hundred votes here and there could be thrown away and she’d still win nobody would worry, we’d say “sure, throw away your vote, or you know, just stay home, you do you”, but unfortunately that’s not the case. So yes, the vast overwhelming majority of people disagree with you, but unfortunately even being wrong your vote is still important.
On the topic of whether there are more than two parties, first past the post means no, there aren’t, there can’t be more than two parties. Fix first past the post if you want an actual democracy. Until that happens, voting 3rd party is functionally the same as not voting, in either case your vote isn’t being counted to determine the winner.
Monk would evidently much rather vote for Pro-Israel candidate Rachele Fruit. Quoted earlier this year:
And anyone who is interested in reading and learning about the history of Hamas will be convinced that it’s not about liberation. It’s about genocide against the Jews.
Yep, I voted for her. Ballot was sent in yesterday. Thank you! :)
Voting for who you want to, isn’t throwing away your vote. It’s exercising your rights. Thank you! :)
Everyone in the entire country has something to worry about BECAUSE there are only two parties. Did you have your pills this morning?
No pills needed. I happily voted third party. Thank you! :)
“OP has stated that they have no issues with a Trump victory and constantly floods the feed with pro Trump propaganda. They will only engage in bad faith and refuse to take responsibility for the things they post. The people controlling this account are here solely for political purposes and have no interest in anything other than harming this community.”
Keep that in mind. I didn’t write this, just posting what someone else wrote. Thanks!
I didn’t vote for Trump. And I don’t care if he wins. I didn’t vote for Harris. And I don’t care if she wins.
I don’t like either one of them.
My post history is public, so not sure why you think that’s some big “gotcha” moment. In fact, here’s the direct link to my post history: https://lemmy.world/u/UniversalMonk?page=1&sort=New&view=Posts
Thank you! :)
