No one person, thing, or organization I regularly interact with has tried as hard as lemmy.world to convince me she is some kinda fucked up spoiler effect politics demon.

Maybe dems should actually try to make ranked choice voting happen for real, instead of lip service to the idea, if they want the people who prefer third parties to support them. And maybe dems should attempt to do anything at all to address the concerns of the third party voters, instead of just threatening them with trump some more. Just some ideas that might alleviate the problem more effectively than getting really mad at people on the internet.

I just she already did it once before...

Third parties have never "spoiled" a us election. Clinton lost because she was an unqualified, unelectable conservative demon, and simply did not get enough core Dems to turn out to vote for anyone.

Conservative, yeah. Unelectable, sure. As far as unqualified? AFAIK, she meets the wickets to be president.

Only technically. But then again ever 35+ year old person. Born in this country meets those qualifications.
