    I’d much prefer a ranked choice voting system where we had viable third parties. At the end of the day, one of two people will win the election. If you make one issue your entire focus, you lose sight of the big picture. I’ll just say this - genocide is not a joke, it’s fucked up, and I believe Israel is committing it in Gaza.

    Putting that aside for now, do you care about anything else politically? Do you believe a woman should not be allowed to have an abortion, or do you support further tax cuts for the billionaires?

        You never can tell at this point. Some people are just low information, single issue voters. I dont doubt there are a lot of astroturfing trolls here though, especially since it’s an election year.

          I’m not completely, but mostly sure that all of this is astroturfed. It’s crazy to me.

            I think there are a lot of disenfranchised young people who are naive about how our voting system works, just like I was in 2016. I’ve said it elsewhere but I’m getting flashbacks because of all the “don’t vote” and “vote 3rd party” BS I’m seeing, which heavily tilted the scales in the favor of the Republicans.
