    Someone: “I voted for what I belive in, which one of course should be able to do in a well functioning democracy”

    Lemmy: “Nooooo you gotta vote for this one and only option, it’s the only way to protect our democracy (???)”

    Guys the third party voters is not the problem, the two party system is. Come on. Voting third party or is a valid and important statement. Voting major party is legitimising an undemocratic system.

    Riot against your government on the streets. That’s where you make the big difference - not in the voting booth.

      This is so true, especially since the Democatic party does the same things the GOP does, just a little more civil. The Biden admin sent bombs to Israel, persecuted striking workers and refused to codify Roe vs. Wade (amongst a ton of other things). Both parties are bought by billionaires and act in their interest, I don’t get how anyone could justify voting dems over third party
