    To anyone that genuinely doesn’t like either party, I think that you can still vote for a third party in the US? The system is rigged against them, but any little helps.

    Or just ruin your ballot to show dissatisfaction in the status quo and maybe give the counters a good laugh.

      You screw the Canadians, Mexicans, Ukrainians, and a bunch of normal countries around the world, not to mention some other friends across the pond.

      Protest voting is exactly what Trump is hoping people will do because he knows his constuency is too small if people turn out to vote in greater numbers.

        Oh yeah, voting for the “lesser evil” is what people should do. But if you’ve already decided to vote for neither anyway, you may as well protest vote for the benefit of whatever world exists next election.

          Probably a managed democracy like Russia. I wouldn’t be suprised if Trump ‘ran’ for a third term after this one. He’s going to fuck the voting system if he wins again. Not to mention all the horrific shit in project 2025, which will fire most of the non-aligned government staff running stuff like NOAA. Good luck with hurricane and fire predictions when the head of NOAA is some Amazon author, lmao.
