No, you won’t see me at the ballot box. You will be getting high off the false morality injection voting for some dingbat gives you, while I will be trying to prevent a fascist with intentions of being a day one dictator from taking power.
You like the current duopoly, perpetually vote Dems and accept Republicans will take office some terms
You don’t like the current duopoly, vote third party, and accept you’re helping Republicans take office this term
If Republicans getting into office a few more terms means “the end of democracy” or “the end of X rights”, democracy and x rights are already on their way out. If more people voting third party makes the dems push for ranked voting or adopt policies that will solve the perpetual voting issue, then that lays the groundwork for a democratic future.
If you think doing your part to make sure a fascist gets elected will gain you ranked choice voting, you are naive.
I don’t believe you are that naive, nor do I believe you truly think that.
I think statements like that probably sound believable to 18 year old communists who haven’t learned the word discernment yet.
There is a word for people who themselves are not fascist but regardless work to install fascism under the belief that they will personally benefit from it (as you do with thinking fascism is necessary to gain ranked choice).
