    So no. It’s just bullshit. No evidence third parties split the vote.

    If liberal democrats spent a tenth of the energy they waste blaming progressives for their own failures attacking republicans instead, we wouldn’t be in this situation.

    You got Hilary. You got Biden. You got Biden again. You got Harris. What more do you want?

    Polls show progressive policies have broad support. Liberal democrats poll at historic lows.

    And the liberal democrats in office are rubber-stamping fascism.

    You’re the problem.

      No evidence third parties split the vote.

      I mean, are you stupid? If someone is voting 3rd party then they aren’t voting for one of the primary parties. That’s a vote closer to fascism in the case of the 2024 election. This isn’t complicated. You don’t need a source. The source is common sense, which you appear to lack.

      If you’re speaking of the 2024 election specifically, I don’t fucking care if 3rd party voting dipshits made the difference or not. They didn’t know whether they were going to make the difference or not when they voted for a candidate who could not, under any circumstances, win. No intelligent person fucks around with a 3rd party while a fascist party is clearly stating they will behave as a fascist government if they win. Only braindead dumbfucks do that.

      And if there’s any confusion about a 3rd party candidate winning a presidential election, take into account that in the 2024 election, the 3rd party candidate with the most votes was magician Jill Stein, who magically appears before every election, loses, then magically disappears again, and she got a whopping half of a single percent of the total votes cast, proving that there is no reality in which a 3rd party candidate has a chance in hell of winning.

      If liberal democrats spent a tenth of the energy they waste blaming progressives

      So we should just ignore the epic dipshits who blew their vote on a candidate who can’t win, and thus can’t do anything at all for them, while a fascist party was being open about what they would do if they were elected and THAT IS NOW HAPPENING? Nah dawg. I’m not going to let that go. These fucking idiots should be shamed. If your brain isn’t functional enough to grasp that this nation is nowhere near a viable 3rd party and that the most intelligent thing to do until a 3rd party gets off its fucking ass and becomes viable by doing the work necessary, is to vote for one of the two parties that can win, preferably the one that ISN’T OPENLY FASCIST, and aligns closest to your ideals, then you need to seek help getting a better education to develop your critical thinking skills.

      Do these losers think you can just magically make a 3rd party candidate president without that party building a base and becoming nationally popular by winning local/state elections and getting ANY AT ALL representatives in the House and Senate? Like I said. Braindead.

      You got Hilary. You got Biden. You got Biden again. You got Harris. What more do you want?

      I want dipshits to develop and use critical thinking skills so we don’t elect FUCKING FASCISTS and LOSE OUR DEMOCRACY.

      We are literally living the repercussion of fucking idiots blowing votes on 3rd parties or not voting at all and you’re sitting here defending that shit?

      I’ll ask again.

      Are you fucking stupid?
