Also changing perspectives does a lot too.
Blue politician comes up saying they will kill all trans people, but stop the genocide in middle east.
How many trans people would be expected to vote for them? Just willingly put effort into supporting this guy, I am sure the guilt of helping his actions won't haunt you forever.
Now imagine a third party promises everything blue politician does AND doesn't want to kill trans people on top.
And then imagine this same scenario has been continuing for the last 50 years.
To be clear, I would've went blue if I was legally allowed to vote. Still I will not shame people for deciding non-vote. Especially when I could be shaming republicans instead.
Its a good way to think of it.
Like i said to be fair to the OP in other systems its easier to go third or not vote than in the USA, but blaming the people that do for republicans winning is flase, honestly looking at the election math it seems to be undecided voters who must live in a state of puré blishful ignorance or somthing... like right now if your an undicided voter what are you doing? thats the person id be like WTF at right now
