    A third party winning is literally impossible. Anything other than a vote for the Democrats in the genral election is effectively half a vote for the Republicans.

    Anyone telling others to vote 3rd party is either a fucking idiot or is intentionally trying to water down the anti-fascist vote. Either way, shut the hell up. We need to stop the motherfuckers currently in power, and you’re making that harder.

        They aren’t in the debates. They aren’t in the news. They frequently aren’t in the ballot.

        Bernie has achieved what he has by caucusing as a Democrat. He joined the Democratic Party for both his Presidential campaigns.

        Third parties are spoilers. That’s it.

        If 1% of the Florida voters who voted for the Green party in 2000 had instead voted for Gore, Bush would never have been President and the world would be in a much better place.
