Failure to vote to stop evil, when you have the full knowledge and capability, is the same as doing evil yourself. Anyone alive today under 100 and over 18 that has not been voting the most radical left candidates running --regardless of "electability or party-- is at least partly responsible. And yes that means you if you’ve voted dem since they gave up gore for w bush.

You’re correct in most of the world, where instant runoff is the norm. But drag thinks we should also let the Americans know that they should be voting Democrat, since they have a broken system where only votes for the two biggest parties are counted. Any American who didn’t vote for every Democrat president is almost as responsible for climate collapse as the Republicans.

Broken systems don’t get fixed from within, especially by a party that helped make it this broken.

And there hasnt been a dem that did anything at all regarding climate change since gore gave up and sold useless carbon credits.

That’s right. That’s why we need a revolution. And that’s why we pick the shark with fewer teeth until we’re organised enough to do it. You can’t fix the US electoral system by voting. Voting third party isn’t going to save the world. You need to give up on your false hope that your vote is for doing good. Your vote is for delaying the bad. You delay the bad by voting Democrat.
