If people critical of this could organize something more useful than lemmy downvotes, that would be a start. I’m just genuinely confused by anyone that feels like not voting accomplishes anything. By definition, it is inaction. And mathematically, voting third party is the same as not voting. Why not at least defend gay and trans people? You can still do whatever non-voting-related actions you were planning to do to improve things. I guess you’re making your trolley problem choice. Honestly, the moral purity that has no impact just reads as vanity to me.

i’ve presented exactly as much evidence for my position as you for yours.
No, I gave you a link that you didn’t read (you didn’t have time to have read it). I’m sorry you can’t support your fantasy, goodbye.
