Welcome to /c/tumblr, a place for all your tumblr screenshots and news.
Keep it civil. We're all people here. Be respectful to one another.
No sexism, racism, homophobia, transphobia or any other flavor of bigotry. I should not need to explain this one.
Must be tumblr related. This one is kind of a given.
Try not to repost anything posted within the past month. Beyond that, go for it. Not everyone is on every site all the time.
No unnecessary negativity. Just because you don't like a thing doesn't mean that you need to spend the entire comment section complaining about said thing. Just downvote and move on.

As a foreigner I never understood the novote sentiment in the US. You aren't voting for either candidate because you dislike them, so who would you actually vote for? AOC? RFK Jr? Bernie? Does your ideal candidate even exist in reality yet? All a no vote does is take away your own rights in your country, while the rest of the world moves on without you.
For what it's worth, both parties can be trash but one party actually can be shamed to doing the right thing once in a while.
Who I would vote for would be, for example, the third-party candidate I'm actually voting for.
The democrats can't be "shamed" into doing the right thing. They might be able to be pressured into doing it, and establishing a credible threat that you'll withhold your vote if they do something unconcionable is one way of exerting that pressure. They have exactly zero interest in the concerns of people whose votes are guaranteed.
And if they are completely unresponsive regardless, then the only hope of having our concerns listened to is to unseat them, by means of a third party. No matter how unlikely or how long it takes, it's still more likely than the possibility that Biden randomly starts caring about Palestinians out of the kindness of his heart.
Cool, so you're voting for tRump, got it.
Trump is a third-party candidate? Fascinating perspective.
