    You can voice your displeasure while also making sure the world slides a little more slowly down the shithole (and potentionally has a chance to crawl back out). Voting for the president is important, but it’s far from the only thing that is. Hedging everything you believe in on a single office is far more damaging than a single vote for Biden could ever be.

      We’ve been living through at least 40+ years of “Vote for 20% more evil instead of 40% more evil” and wouldn’t you know it we’re at a substantial higher level of evil.

      Everyone loves screeching about leftists/3rd party types being silly stupid babies, but yall are the ones who keep telling us the only way to less evil is by adding more evil. 🤷

      We’re at least trying. If everyone who was a little piss baby whenever third parties came up voted for one we’d have a few by now.

      Seeing as the post limits itself to the presidency, my response was about the presidency. If you’d like to talk about how lower ballot initiatives are important in different ways, I’m in board to listen. But these a different conversation.
