But if you say you're voting for who you actually believe in, and it's not one of the two, you're also "throwing your vote away" according to many. Anytime I see this all I see is blackmail. "Vote my way or bad things will happen".

It's not a choice, it's coercion. One side actively threatens it and the other side passively threatens it. It's all just threats if you don't fall in line.

Nobody, at least seriously, is threatening YOU to vote a specific way. The threat comes from one candidate specifically, of which our glorious 2 party system has confirmed will ONLY be one of those two. And he isn’t threatening YOU, but rather our entire way of life. So, go ahead and vote however you want. Just know the repercussions on the grand scale, and maybe be a little humble.

Funny how one side can do anything they want but the other side can at best "not be that guy". Democratic impotence is intentional.

What exactly are you saying here now? You’re being intentionally vague

[-] fishos@lemmy.world -1 points 8 months ago

No I'm not. You lack reading comprehension. According the this very meme, R is able to bring the world to fascism but all D can do at best is "not be facists". No argument for what good they'll do. Just "well, we're not facists...."
