Cause the other option totally isn't...
Voting third party is voting for the other guy, btw. (System sucks but we can't change it overnight and a full shift of the democrat voters is a prisoners dilemma...I'll let you figure out why that is bad)
Its a mistake with no real world upside.
Voting third party is the ultimate virtue signaling.
Historically incorrect as far as US politics go.
Cite sources. You make claims up and down to the fact that third-parties have "influenced" elections [other than the spoiler effect, pulling votes from someone's next preferred candidate]. So what third-party candidate has been shown to influence anything positively under our current system of voting.
I tell ya, Putin must be running out of "the best and brightest" to the meat grinder in Ukraine if we're left with you.
