If you vote for “the lesser evil” when a #3rd_Party candidate would best represent your interests you’re perpetuating the corrupt #twin_parties‘ grip on power and cheating our future generations.

a href="https://fresh.federati.net/lnxw48" class="mention">@lnxw48 Exactly. I’m so tired of the “throwing your vote away” argument. Now, if we could just get rid of that fucking electoral college and use something like runoff votes to get a real majority, things would be more representative.

@lnxw48 This is something my conscience grapples with: vote tactically or vote to represent my views.

@lnxw48 in the presidential election I’d vote for the lesser evil b/c your vote for a 3rd party candidate will be just&the worst evil’ll win

@lnxw48 In parliament elections I might vote for a 3rd party → opposition seats in parliament.

@mcscx After two decades of watching both major candidates, voting for either is unconscionable. If you knew that your chosen candidate has consistently supported domestic spying, overseas wars, expanding the power of the copyright-abuse industries, and various “free trade” agreements which prevent member nations from protecting their citizens from multinational corporations over the years, would you still say $CANDIDATE is “less evil” than $OPPOSING_CANDIDATE? Yet, that’s the choice the #twin_parties gave us.
This feels like a movie. We’re on the carousel, when a psycho clown appears. We jump off our horses and run … right into another psycho clown. Maybe if we jump off the carousel, we can escape #clown_world alive.
