  • That’s a laughable bad take.

    The left, known for picking apart their candidates and platforms and fucking themselves by letting perfect the enemy of good repeatedly being called out as “cult-like”.

    I’m voting for Harris. But lemme tell you, I’ve got issues with her. Especially her history as “pro cop”.

    The thing is, many people on the left vote for “harm reduction”. We know there’s better candidates out there, but we’re stuck with what we’ve got in the FPTP voting we have.

    Objectively, voting for Harris will cause the least harm in this election.

    Especially if our alternative is a ratfucking tyrant that wants to be a “dictator”, wants to “ban protests”, revoke the broadcast licenses of media outlets critical of him & his party, would authorize Israel to wipe out Gaza with our direct support of our troops, would consolidate wealth to the top, and is openly working with the deranged likes of a man that dreams of making his workers indentured servants and would push the USA to reflect apartheid South Africa to relive the glory his father did.

    That’s some major logical fallacy stuff that you’ve got spinning in your head over there. It’s also not the first time I’ve seen you make conclusions based off logical fallacies too. Please, please, please, do yourself a favor and do some studying on logical fallacies and public speaking. It’ll do you wonders on effectively communicating and reducing your negative outcomes.

    And for the record.

    I believe in the idea of third parties. I will vote for serious third party candidates that have done the real work of getting out there and recognized for their platform and constituents in down ballot elections (as long as those platforms align with me). However, I am not going to vote for any current third party in a presidential election since barely any of them have done the down ballot work to make them even possible from being serious presidential candidates. So I will vote for harm reduction, because my life & lifestyle doesn’t have the benefit of surviving another Trump presidency.

    Lastly.

    Not everything is about you. Somehow you made this post that was unrelated to you or third parties about you and your third party interests. I hope you can see how that could annoy people in this community and make you come off as disengenous with ulterior motives at worst or unstable and self-absorbed at best.
