There’s no red line that Americans can VOTE on. We don’t get to vote on how America goes to war, period. You really want to frame this in the context that your actually doing something other than undermining a fair election. You’ve gone way past the red line in your support of Trump.
"You really want to frame this in the context that your actually doing something other than undermining a fair election. "
I find that arguing a person must vote for one of two pro-genocide parties already undermines your idea of a “fair election.” What primary even nominated Harris as the Democrat candidate? -Not that our primary systems is particularly representative of a “fair election” system, either. I just don’t remember when these were candidates voted on.
Sure there is, you can vote Green or PSL. If you disapprove of the Democrats but will never not vote for them, you’re the same as the rabid supporters of Zionism that vote for the Dems, materially. Are you looking to join a Leftist party, try to destabilize the system and establish Socialism? If not, it seems like you’re just supporting the status quo and not lifting a finger no matter how bad it gets.
No, I don’t support Trump, that’s why I support leftist candidates and advocate for people to abandon the Dems and Reps.
You sure can if you believe that making an insignificant point in a ballot box is worth more than the actual lives of people who would die because of a Trump administration but not under a Harris one. But if you want to make an actual difference. the ballot box is one of the very few times you need to hold your nose and do the uncomfortable thing of choosing liberalism over fascism.
But if you’re okay with fascism, sure. Go and make your vote a spoiler that helps the fascists win. I’m sure the people who die because doctors who were scared to provide medically necessary abortions will be grateful that you did the morally superior, but entirely ineffective, thing.

You can vote for fascism if that’s what you want, I reject it.

You’re voting fascism in, the Dems have failed for half a century to codify abortion rights because they don’t care.
Why are you encouraging people to do things that will make it more likely for fascists to win and destroy what little leftist organizing there is in America? The only rational conclusion is that you want fascism. But you keep avoiding that question. Is it because you’re taking a page out of the alt-right playbook?
You wouldn’t know fascism if you lived in Nazi Germany. Read the first chapter of Blackshirts and Reds, fascism is just Capitalism in decay, and neither the DNC nor GOP are capable of stopping that.
Once again avoiding the question and making personal attacks instead.
Your words imply that you think I believe having Harris as president will fix things. I don’t. What I do believe is it will slow the decline, hopefully enough for us to create ways to escape capitalism without having fascists commit more genocides than they already are. This is known as “harm reduction.” It’s a complex theory by which one takes actions to reduce the harm done with immediate actions when there’s no immediate action that one can take to improve things. The ballot box in 2024 is not the time for a revolution, for said revolution would fail miserably, leaving us worse off. The ballot box in 2024 is the time for harm reduction.
you keep saying “vote” as if it means the same thing in a ranked-choice voting system and a first-past-the-post voting system.
newsflash: you’re not making the difference you claim you’re making. if anything, you’re making it worse. congratulations! good job! you did it! you get a good star!
You and everyone else here with an agenda ARE supporting the status quo
TIL advocating people to join revolutionary parties and overthrow the system is “supporting the status quo,” while voting for the establishment parties is “punk.” Is this a Twilight Zone episode?
Do you think you’re voting socialism in with a Jill Stein vote?
Nah, just voting against genocide and Imperialism. Voting doesn’t really matter anyways
Because I guarantee you that’s not what she’s running for.
Cool.
You know very well that you can’t go into an American polling station and vote for anti-establishment policies.
I can and I will.
The spoiler vote comes down to ONE real world mechanic. Undermining the popular candidate’s vote.
Can’t be a spoiler if I would never vote for a genocidal monster anyways. Harris is spoiling her own votes.

You’re all or nothing take on it sounds a little fascist to me…
You wouldn’t know what fascism was if you lived in Mussolini’s Italy or Nazi Germany. Read Blackshirts and Reds, at least the first chapter.
You’re literally making the choice to put fascism in power. I’m trying to stop you from making the same mistake I made in 2016.
You’re literally voting for fascism, not sure what you mean here.
Words have definitions. Harris, for everything I don’t like about her, is a liberal. Not a fascist. Trump, on the other hand, is a fascist.
The choices here are simple: fascism (Trump), not-fascism (Harris), or “I really don’t care, do u?”

Not sure what you’re getting at here, RCV or FPTP, doesn’t make a difference, electoralism is useless.

Please explain exactly what you’re talking about here, that’s BS.
You literally said “methinks,” pot meet kettle. I shitpost because it’s quick and work has uptime and downtime.
