Yeah! That's why you want Kamala to win! Because she doesn't do DEI with tax dollars! Fuck yeah! And she hates the jews! Yeah!
Oh wait, no she won't. And remember every vote not for one party, IS a vote for the other. Or more mathematically, it changes the victory margin by half the amount a vote would, in the favor of the other party: 20 votes for Trump, 20 votes for Kamala, you choose NOT to vote for Trump, that's 19 votes to 20, Kamala wins, your action supported and caused Kamala to win. If you do so through laziness or ineptitude, well, that's standing aside from the political system. But you looked at the setup, analyzed it, and said "I want to give a half-vote FOR this person." That's the awful flaw of a 2-party system, but it is a thing nonetheless.

This is a false choice. The only thing people can do is point at the other buffoon and rage. I'm not voting for these buffoons.
