uspol, voting
@carbonated_estrogen withholding our votes is the only way to express to the Democratic Party that they need to nominate good candidates, that they can't just rely on us to vote for their person.
Whether Trump or Harris wins, either one is going to be too incompetent to really do much especially with this Congress, so either way we're going to muddle through for the next 4 years.
The question is, what comes next? If we just vote for Harris because we don't like Trump, that tells the party that they can keep putting up bad candidates. Instead, if we vote third party that tells them they have to actually earn our votes.
It's better in the long run.
And it helps get third parties ballot access for the next time around too.
