I cant in good conscious support a party that is pro-genocide. Never mind Harris's horrible history of women's and trans rights.
I plan to vote for the good guy (shocker I know)... chase oliver is my top pick for the moment. Green party's Stein might get my vote if i change my mind.
I just cant imagine anyone supporting the level of evil the democrats and republicans have demonstrated, not to mention incompetence.

Your concern for trans rights is so strong that you're helping enact Project 2025 that promises to harm trans people?
Amazing.
@unabogie @freemo
I'm begging you Doc Freemo ( @freemo ) don't do that. I'm sure you know history of U.S. elections is replete with examples of how casting a protest vote is not a protest at all. This is very evident in swing states.
Had Hillary garnered those "protest" votes and independent voters, she would have won. We wouldn't have the situation we have with the Supreme Court to the degree that it is now. We wouldn't have the tax cuts that were given to corporations. Roe vs Wade would not have been overturned. Covid wouldn't have been politicized as much as it was.
Now if you live in Texas (like me) Florida, Tennessee, Oklahoma or any other deep red state... then more power to ya. But if you live in a swing state, this trans girl is begging you... please do not throw your vote away on the Libertarian or Green Party candidate. Please don't.

Always welcome a respectful discussion, please feel free.

It is not a protest vote. It is the only kind of vote anyone should ever cast, it is a vote for the best candidate, plain and simple.
> Had Hillary garnered those "protest" votes and independent voters, she would have won. We wouldn't have the situation we have with the Supreme Court to the degree that it is now.
While not having Trump in office would have certainly been a good thing, having Hilary there I doubt would have done us any good. I mean sure the supreme court has some wackadoodles on it since Trump had his way, but with Hillary we probably would have been knee deep into WW3 by now. Replacing one incompetant man with another (or woman) wont fix a damn thing.
> We wouldn't have the tax cuts that were given to corporations.
I'm kinda neutral on that, our taxes are pretty high but i dont mind it either way rteally
> Roe vs Wade would not have been overturned.
Roe v wade should have never been the way we protected abortions. From a legal standpoint it made no sense and using privacy as a means to protect abortions was always a plan doomed to fail. The democrats should have been pushing for a amendment to protect abortion from years ago. Ask yourself why they never proposed such a thing ever? Because having abortion be at risk is exactly what the democrats want, it gets them elected. Same for republicans, gets them elected.
> But if you live in a swing state, this trans girl is begging you... please do not throw your vote away on the Libertarian or Green Party candidate.
I am not throwing away my vote, I am voting deliberatly and with intent for the person who is objectively the best canddiate, nothing more, nothing less.
If that were true you'd discuss the why and how in a constructive way rather than resort to the insults I'd expect of a toddler.
