3rd party voting or apathy is a vote for your opponent

no, it’s a vote for the so-called third party or no vote at all.

Green party takes votes from Democrats

this is a myth. votes Don’t belong to the Democrats. they belong to the voters. it’s up to candidates to earn votes.

when are votes for anyone but trump allowed to be counted for trump?

it is . you are presenting my argument in a way to make it seem silly.

this is election misinformation. only a vote for trump can be counted as a vote for trump. a vote for any other candidate cannot be counted for trump.

this is a straw man.

it’s a clear-eyed understanding of what to do about party consolidation under fptp.

first past the post isn’t responsible for that. it’s a tactic called “strategic voting” and it results in the consolidation of parties under fptp. the solution is not to vote for people you don’t want to win.

until he’s gone, every other name is moot.

You counted that as an act of right wing violence.

i didn’t count it at all.

edit: aw fuck. you got me.

there are wikipedia articles about both of these topics:

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Right-wing_terrorism

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Left-wing_terrorism

and, of course,

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Political_violence

edit:

this is only one metric, but i think it’s notable that there are about 80 references on the left wing page and approximately 3.5 times that many on the right wing page.

fuck threads

the difference is that CNN gets paid.

wait…

they may have been referring to the Senate intelligence committee investigation

so do it

there is no way you tested a bubblegum and lollipops economy with an infinite lollipop machine, and if you did, the results are not applicable to the economies of Venezuela or Zimbabwe

this is storytelling, it is not evidence of a testable causal relationship

this is posturing and rhetoric. it is not evidence of a natural phenomenon called “inflation”

that’s story-telling. it’s a myth. everyone could have chosen not to accept higher prices, or levy them. then what? did “inflation” still happen?
