I'm not going to blame the 3rd party voters. At least they voted.

Put your anger towards those who couldn't even be bothered to do so.

[–] DarkFuture@lemmy.world 10 points 1 day ago (2 children)

How about both?

Yeah, non-voters are the dumbest of the dumb. Period.

But if you voted 3rd party in a PRESIDENTIAL election, you're a goddamn idiot.

It basically means they don’t understand the rules of the game. If they are willing to learn, cool, but many are not.

No? My vote for President literally does not matter in California. I voted for Harris because Fuck Trump, but my vote doesn't mean shit in this state. I literally have more value voting 3rd party than I do for either major candidate because of how the Federal Election Funding requirements work for 3rd parties.

Put your anger towards those who couldn't even be bothered to do so.

Why? The election was won and lost in swing states, and voter turnout in swing states was roughly the same in 2024 and 2020.

3rd party voter here. Let's stop hating fellow poors and collectively hate the rich and powerful who are really responsible

How about you put on your thinking cap and understand why voting 3rd party in a presidential election is fucking pointless?

[–] Sprawl@lemmy.world 6 points 23 hours ago (1 children)
