Oh! Suddenly I’m not wrong for not voting because it was a choice between evil and evil? Very weird how that works out. I told you motherfuckers from the get-go, but yall didn’t want to listen
No, you’re still very much wrong for choosing “more evil” in the choice between “evil” and “more evil”. Keep patting yourself on the back for supporting Trump.
It’s your right not to choose. However not choosing means you didn’t engage with the system. Just accepting the outcome whatever it may be. Those who vote third-party also throw their votes away. Not helping anyone in the end. But at least they can say they tried to send a signal. Even if such signals are ignored.
You’ve already been told this ad infinitum, but for those who haven’t:
This person (and all other willing non voters) supported the Trump campaign through inaction. There were exactly 2 possible results of the presidential election. There was no “none of the above” option, every single eligible voter steered the ship in one of two ways: towards Trump or towards Harris. This is a mathematical fact that results from having a FPTP voting system. You will never have more than 2 possible outcomes.
The idea that “I didn’t vote so I’m not responsible! I didn’t check the ‘Trump’ box!” Is a fantasy created so they don’t have to take responsibility for their actions. They may not have supported Trump as much as a red hat voting for him, but they definitely provided Trump more electoral support than Harris and that says quite a bit.
Maybe don’t scream “hey look everyone! I’m not an asshole!” immediately after doing some asshole shit? Have a nice day.
This is absolutely correct. Not voting shows that one is completely fine with either/any candidate- and are willing to trust that everyone else will do the right thing for them.
Regardless of were or not this is what they actually think, this is the result.
You have to assume the system will survive any efforts against it and act accordingly.
voting is harm reduction and yes you are wrong for not telling those in charge of the orphan crushing machine to dial it back a notch especially when the odds aren’t in your favour.
Participating in western liberal democracy doesn’t prevent anyone from building systems that undermine it.
Say the orphan crushing machine crushes 100 orphans an hour.
Influencing the orphan crushing machine does not impact your ability to try to destroy the orphan crushing machine.
You can influence the orphan crushing machine towards crushing 99 orphans an hour.
In what possible scenario should I not take that action. It doesn’t stop the orphan crushing machine, but if it takes us a year to destroy the orphan crushing machine, that’s 8,700 orphans we saved from getting crushed.

I didn’t choose. I don’t really understand how that’s hard to wrap your head around, but good attempt your propagandist

You choose not to choose.
That’s the lamest choice available.
You’re the lamest choice available

Take your own advice
not voting at all is worse than voting evil or lesser evil
This is absolutely correct. Not voting shows that one is completely fine with either/any candidate- and are willing to trust that everyone else will do the right thing for them.

thats why you are part of the problem, and not the solution.

Just because a meme supports an ideology you believe in doesn’t exempt you from the consequences of your actions-
You’re still wrong.
That’s the pot calling the kettle black
Please explain how
Is worse than
Even if both evils are equal, they are the same. You chose to take an action that’s at best the same as the other option.
Hey everyone, I found the greater evil.
Turns out it was just ignorance and a lack of personal responsibility this whole time!
Wow. You got my whole person figured from one comment on the internet. That’s an impressive talent.
