I think I understand why you’re not getting this. You simply can’t understand that under FPTP, the only way to vehemently deny one candidate and to keep them out of office is to ‘support’ the other, even if you don’t agree with them. When one candidate will destroy democracy and usher in an autocracy, if you actually care about having a choice in the future, the only effective solution is to support an opposition that will not destroy everything.

You still haven’t addressed how Biden’s foreign policy and Harris’s presumed foreign policy (due to her unwillingness to create daylight) isn’t a part of her platform aligned with the Cheneys.

This is not the topic of conversation, and I’ve already given you enough of my time. Google exists., and I’m not your polisci professor. You can look the rest up for yourself.

I think they know. I just want this election to be over so this plague is gone from this site.

Oh, don’t you worry. No matter what happens, there’ll always be something for them to bitch about.

Oh my god, what a mind numbingly stupid lesson from someone stubbornly refusing to answer the question that blows their whole argument up. I’m not even sure why you would think my question, a question to you personally, would be answerable by either a polisci professor or Google. It’s just a nonsensical response by someone who knows they don’t have an answer and simply wants to avoid acknowledging their hypocrisy.

None of this is about who I want to win or whether I think Stein is a responsible and sincere political candidate (she isn’t), it’s about your hypocritical assertion that bad endorsements only sometimes reflect on candidates.
