That's what the meme is showing. There was no instance where 3rd party voting took away from either main party candidate.

My brother In christ Kdolf lost the popular vote. đź’€

If you add every every vote from every single third party to her she does not even come close to a path to victory.

Do you really think any of us who voted third party were ever going to vote for a genocidal, anti immigrant, imperialist cop? Third parties didn’t take away votes because those votes were not Harris’ by default; they gave a voice to people who otherwise wouldn’t have voted to express their disapproval of this rigged, exploitative system. And to top all that off, even if every third party voter was somehow mandated to vote for Kamala, she still would have lost.

I like how you say iirc as if you are remembering a fact that has been said instead of a line that has been fed to you to repeat without knowing that it is totally ungrounded in reality

How about we don't engage in a conspiracy where the party led by a Jewish Woman is 'stealing votes', think before you speak.

What took a lot of votes away was Kamala Harris losing 15 million voters because she couldn't turn left, kind of like famous politician Dale Earnhardt

Anyway here's a breakdown of the votes that were "taken away".
Incidentally saying they were "taken away" is incredibly stupid. The democrats are not owed anyones vote and assuming a person voting for Jill Stein would vote for Kamala Harris is flawed in a great many ways.
