    Life must be so easy being binary and thinking, critique of one does not imply support of the other. Your party ran a piece of shit right-wing blue fascist who openly welcomed war criminals and you guys thought it was okay. We did not

        classic blue maga behavior - any structural critique must be met with tribal-style ad hom: “yeah well you probably just support kang instead of kodos.”

          Critique was due in any other election year without an actual literal fascist on the Republican ticket.

            This attitude perpetuates the Democratic ticket running terrible candidates who can’t inspire either voters or potential voters. You can settle for a poop sandwich on rye rather than a poop sandwich on John Deerst but some would prefer something actually nourishing.

          Hate to break it to you, but the US elections ARE binary for as long as FPTP is the voting system nationwide. You want real change? advocate for things like RCV. I wouldn’t even vote for the DNC IF RCV was nationwide and third-parties actually stood a chance, I’m just being realistic.

          As things stand now, you’re just demanding a fantasy. A pursuit that will now have blood on its hands because now instead of a “not really a fascist, just not as left as id like” president we have a full throat legit fascist.

      The 2024 US presidential election was a binary choice, because that’s how it works with first past the goalposts elections.

      If you voted 3rd party, you voted for Trump.

        Why do you guys pretend to understand the electoral college in one breath and in the other assume every critic of the Democratic party lives in NC, GA, PA, MI, etc.?

        My vote would have literally been more wasted voting for Kamala in a deep red state. At least a third party vote could get your party to notice something.

        The vast majority of Americans do not live in swing states.
