idk man I just need to vent i guess
my employer “provides” health insurance in exchange for my time and labor, and for that great privilege they take $600 out of my paycheck every month (covers me, my wife, and our 1yo son)
that’s half our monthly mortgage payment; it’s 2/3 our monthly grocery bill
why?
We have been suffering the two parties taking turns fucking us for decades.
Vote for either party is the vote to support this regime.
Vote for anyone else is letting the system know you are not playing.
“GOP wins” is not a fucking platforms mate… If y’all want people to vote for Democrats, make decmorats do something for the people.
This clowns can’t take proper position omnthe genocide… JFC
For some people genocide is a deal breaker… For others “never again” has a different meaning 🤡

I don’t like it either, but I have enough of a rational thought process to recognize that in a FTTP system, independently voting for the little guy instead of the Democrats is only increasing the odds of Trump accelerating the decline of this country.
When the only thing that counts towards the election is the majority vote amongst your neighborhood, and your neighborhood is almost exclusively voting either Democrat or Republican, you’re wasting your vote on a third party. If the goal is to give the worst of the bad options a better chance of succeeding, by all means, keep trying to convince people online to throw away their anti-Trump vote. If the goal is to actually replace the two majority parties whose actual constituents are rich capitalists and not their voters, then start locally and grow outward.
