    Let’s say we’re approaching global warming at a rate of 10. Voting Republicans makes it go to 11, voting Democrats makes it go to 9.

    I. Don’t. Care. if it’s the Republicans or Democrats who win. We need solidarity around saying “this isn’t good enough”, and we need people to vote third party until that happens.

    You can sit there on moral high ground knowing you voted for Harris who would have been slightly better on climate, but we both know it won’t stop the collapse.

      There was an option to buy the planet some more time, and there was an option to burn up the time.

      That time could have made all the difference, but now we’ll never know, because some silly goobers decided it was worth burning the planet to own the libs.

      Oh you got solidarity alright. With the Trumpists, both malicious and uninformed, and the apathetic. In the end what you say about why you did it is immaterial, America is dead and your comrades and yourself gleefully killed it. You now want admiration for the murder. 🤮

        With a different voting system, they could have the chance to transfer their vote to the democrats if their preference didn’t win.

        Why are democrats saying no to these easy votes? Why arent they replacing First-past-the-post voting in states they control?

          Don’t worry, now that you’ve destroyed the United States you can do anything you want. As long as it involves bigotry, genocide, and continuing to tongue Republican rectum
