Because you're a citizen. That's what being a citizen means.

As a citizen, I am working on building support for third-party candidates who are outside of the Democrat-Republican Duopoly (which is really just a Monopoly).

I don’t care if it’s realistic. It’s the only option I see. I’m not supporting a genocide.

Cool, you do realize that voting against fascism in this election doesn't disable you from doing that, right? You... you do realize that a fascist getting in power will make building that support harder, right?

... right...?

This is the equivalent of 'thoughts and prayers'. May not be realistic, but boy does it make you feel like you're keeping your hands clean. I mean, ignore the hundreds of thousands of people who are going to die in various horrible ways because of your inaction, at least you didn't have to make a choice. That would truly be terrible.

Tens of thousands of men, women, and children are dying right now, and your guy is supporting it.

And I am making a choice. I’m choosing third-party.

Thanks for affirming that you still don't understand the trolley problem.

And I am making a choice. I’m choosing third-party.

Keep giving out those thoughts and prayers to help the fascists. There's not much difference between you and them.
