    While I mostly agree with this, I have one significant hurdle I am unable to overcome. What other choice do I have?

    I can’t stand most Democrats. They suck! But they are a far cry better than voting Republican. And voting for a third party feels like wasting my vote.

    If there was a third party candidate that focused on climate change and social issues and had even the slightest chance of winning, I would vote for them in a second. Until then, I am stuck voting for the lesser of two evils.

        You are giving consent when you vote. You are saying this choice is fine.

        Actually, when you vote, you just vote.

        That’s it. It’s not a magic ritual, you don’t telepathically send your message to the Holy Ghost of Democracy when you vote, Anubis isn’t going to weigh your ballot against a feather before deciding on the fate of your soul.

        You circle something or you don’t and then you deal with whatever happens however you want.
