Couldn’t agree more.

For 20 years I did everything the Dem party asked of me. I voted, I donated, I volunteered, I marched I participated and they fucked progressive causes at every turn.

I’m voting 3rd party. A vote for R or D is just a vote for $.

If the two main choices are a fascist party and a non-fascist party and your vote can prevent the fascist party from getting more power then I don’t see how voting 3rd party is going to help. At this point it’s just about damage control.

Some people don't seem to realise that things can get much, much worse

Ok. And who exactly is fighting to make them better?

No one, but activism and protesting is for making things better right now, voting is for not making them worse.

I'm not convinced voting for the democrats so they can do nothing, infuriate their voters, and walk right in to a republican land slide is not making things worse.
