It’s frustrating, because he is one of our more thoughtful posters, but he’s also one of the most full of his own bs.
when pointing a finger at someone, it is important to note you are pointing three back at yourself.

That's circular logic and only accomplishes perpetuating the system.

"I never vote 3rd party"
Why not?
"They never win"
Why not?
"Because I never vote for them"

Your position is that we should only vote for someone IF they are presented as having a clear path to victory but who makes that declaration? Who constructs the metrics that are used to declare someone "viable"?
What does that "YOUR position is that..." mean? You weren't referring to ME when you said "you"?

They refuse to vote for them because they know they can't win, and the Dems take full advantage of this fact and scare people.

The ONLY solution: Ranked Choice Voting. Evidence: The NYC mayoral primaries, among others.

THEY are using circular logic.
The people who don't vote for 3rd parties "because they never win".

You must have missed the question mark after I *asked* if that was your position.

Because it wasn't 100% clear, in part due to your further assertion that the "ONLY" solution is ranked-choice voting, which I don't believe to be true at all no matter how much I do support ranked-choice.

Question mark = asking, not telling.

It’s so unfair when people don’t vote for your favorite candidate. :Sad:

I can't imagine a Jose Mujica coming out of the "rugged individualism" of the West.

I hope to live long enough to be proven wrong.

Even Jill Stein defended her mutual fund investments in industries she doesn't support (MIC) by saying that she had no control over what the mutual fund does.

But you do have control over who you allow to invest your money.

. So Jack, when you and Jirk go on a date does he wear a catholic school girl uniform
or something back street and slutty?
I don't know who Jirk is, and I don't require your approval or acceptance to post whatever I like wherever I like to whomever I like. You go hang with your clique and be accepted. None of my concern or interest.

Sorry to disappoint.

I believe this kind of accountability for "the left" is absolutely necessary if anything is ever going to fundamentally change. "The left's" biggest enemy isn't the republicans... it's the corrupt gate-keeping democrats whose support for leftist policies is performative at best. If that gets me labeled 'rightwing' or a Trump supporter or whatever that's just too bad.

People who know me know better and people who don't know me can think whatever they want.
So fucking under aged girls, and spending millions to cover it up must be a way a life in the south. WTF is wrong with you?
