Where have you been for the past 3 months lol.

why would i vote?

The power of your vote isn't affected by someone...commenting on it...so you'd still vote for whatever reason you had before you were told that. Being told that your vote would be wasted on, presumably, a third-party candidate is just practical commentary. If you find yourself dissuaded by that, you're not being suppressed, you're just...childishly impressionable. Please forgive the insult.
