We have a first past the post voting system. You never vote FOR anyone. You vote AGAINST who you hate most. A vote for a third party, or not voting, is literally identical to voting for who you hate most.

You can rage against that all you like, but that’s the reality of our current system. So even choosing to do nothing is a positive action on your part.

Now, you can say you hate them equally. But that just means you care ZERO about things like DEI, women, abortion rights, etc. Can you honestly say you care zero about those things?

I can’t wait to freely cast my ballot AGAINST either a genocidal capitalist or a worse genocidal capitalist.

That’s the spirit! Anyone excited about voting, and not treating it as a horrible civic duty that we must endure, is psychotic.

Any real change will come from voting for local candidates that support ranked choice voting. Then we can push for real change.
