When one major party candidate is a fascist, the other supports genocide, and both support a "let it rip" strategy on the Covid pandemic, it is clearly time to vote third party.

@rchusid I have yet to encounter a vote where I can chose a perfect candidate. during my lifetime, it's always been "The lesser of two evils".

@rchusid Is there any COVID-19 cautious third party candidate?We need wiser people, who have the wisdom to end war and pestilence among other things.

@rchusid When a major party candidate is fascist, it’s foolish to split the opposition vote.

@rchusid Can there be two worse, despicable, rotten and fundamentally EVIL assholes running for President than Genocide Joe @POTUS and Trump? (Or really, any asshole on the RepugniQan ticket.) This is what Oligarchy looks like. Fuck it.

@LightFIAR Could be worse than Biden v. Trump. Hillary Clinton could be running.

@CommonMugwort When the other candidate is also terrible on civil liberties and democracy while supporting genocide it doesn't matter which wins. It is best to vote against both.

@tadbithuman So far the only candidate I've seen discuss Covid recently has been Williamson. I'm waiting to see what Jill Stein says once her campaign is really up and running. She was strong on Covid precautions early but I want to see what she says at this stage.

@nyx The problem is that this leads to the evils becoming worse and worse, getting to a point where it would be wrong to vote for either.

@rchusid https://hachyderm.io/@jeremy_list/111609417948009374 The new government of New Zealand is promising to be the worst since Muldoon; in other words a bit better than what most countries even have as options.

@rchusid I I’m old enough to have felt that way about Bush/Gore and look where that got us. I think you are catastrophically wrong.Fascists must be defeated, and that means everyone else has to pull together against them.You have no idea how much worse things will get if Trump wins, and what you’re advocating is how he does.

@CommonMugwort Biden is worse than Bush and at least as bad as Trump.

@rchusid That is so wildly untrue that I can’t engage with it in any useful way.Let’s not discuss the matter any further.

@ghostie Civil libertarian but someone who does not oppose essential services and definitely not an anti-vaxxer like RFK Jr.

@rchusid how DARE you. Don’t you know that any attempt to give the DNC the enema it so richly deserves is handing the nation over to Trump?Listen and believe: there were no other Democrats candidates in 2016, or 2020, and there are none in 2024. You have no alternative but to choke on what we, the DNC, shove down your throat.

@rchusidA lottery would probably be a better way to pick a president at this point.

@Wolf_Deity A random name picked from the phone book would be better than either of the last two presidents.
