The “secret” almost certainly involves a plan to install Trump in the White House if he loses the election—but this plan could be even worse than you think.
You have two choices. There’s nothing anyone can do about that in the next 48 hours. If you refuse to vote for the “lesser evil” because of your “higher standards,” you end up with the greater evil. And in four years you might not get a choice at all.
Shove your standards up your ass and vote using logic instead of emotion.

And that’s precisely why this country is so fucked. Neither party is accountable to the electorate because of people like you with this mentality. Both have contributed to the position we’re in now and have zero reason to actually fix anything because theyre both guaranteed to retain power. You’re just perpetuating the status quo with your faulty ‘logic’ of doing absolutely nothing other than attacking anyone who speaks out against this insanity and rewarding those who perpetuate it.
Based on the fact that for some reason it is only once every 4 years, around October, that there appears to be an interest in a 3rd party from Americans…
And the rest of the time over the last 50 years, everyone is happy with the government’s performance? What a ridiculous argument rooted in absolutely nothing. This says a lot more about you than anyone else.
Maybe this is the only period where you hear people criticizing these two private organizations that run the show because it’s the only time you ever take your head out from between their cheeks to get some air?
So a week from now you’re still going to be posting about the importance of holding politicians accountable? Come January you’re going to be involved in some action to pressure the government to do something about Israel? I’d love to be proven wrong.
These comments reek of projection because your view of politics is “pay attention in October before the election.” You don’t seem to grasp that other people care about how the country is run outside of that tiny window where you pay attention because you only see the world through your own lens.

Wrong. We’re here because the electoral college gives Wyoming voters 400% more weight than California voters; because of gerrymandering and the cap on the number of representatives in the House; and because of a FPTP system that always results in two-party rule. My “mentality” isn’t going to magically change that.
Both … have zero reason to actually fix anything because theyre [sic] both guaranteed to retain power.
Ok, so yet again you can’t compare two things that are the same to make a decision. You have to use different criteria in order to tip the scale one way or the other.
doing absolutely nothing other than attacking anyone who speaks out against this insanity and rewarding those who perpetuate it.
And you think your emotional pleas on the internet are somehow making a difference? You think not voting will send some sort of message?
You have no strategy beyond making angry comments. I, on the other hand, casted my vote for ranked choice voting in my state, which will help third party candidates have a greater chance of winning state elections. I voted previously for a new method of dividing districts that avoids gerrymandering by any one party, and it passed. And I voted for the presidential candidate who believes in science and reality over the one who thinks windmills cause cancer. I’m making my vote count for the critical issues that underly the problems we face. I don’t get my way on every single issue, but that’s how democracy works.
If you want to throw away your vote, that’s your choice. But don’t act like it’s some morally superior act when in reality you’re not making any difference and you’ll just end up with the worst outcome instead of the less desirable outcome.

And in 3 days we will suddenly stop hearing from CmdrShepard42 about holding politicians accountable.
Based on what exactly?
