Or maybe vote whatever third party you can to stop supporting this human centipede of a political system
-
Which will be a 100% useless vote unless a ridiculously huge amount of people suddenly decide to do the same, because of gerrymandering and other shitty practices that ensure the two-party system stays in place. The third place at last election would’ve needed 40x the votes to get elected. It’s basically just giving a vote to the opponent of whoever you would’ve voted, unfortunately.
I absolutely support voting smaller parties in parliamentary systems where even getting 5% actually amounts to something, but in the US system it’s just counterproductive.

A bullet in the mud is better than a bullet in your own foot
-
Not if your other foot is under the mud. You’re still getting a gun injury, only now it’s infected too. All because you wanted to shoot in the mud pool that has your foot inside and is the exact same size of your foot, hoping you wouldn’t hit your foot.
-
How exactly does that metaphor apply to reality?
-
You’re saying you’d rather choose a meaningless option rather than a harmful one. Except in this case there’s no meaningless option, because the one you deem to be so will inevitably bring to the more harmful one. Unless 80 million Americans suddenly decide to try and “shoot in the mud”, one of your feet is still getting shot.
-
At least you don't shoot at your foot directly
-
Is this about pride or about making sure your country doesn’t turn into a fascist stronghold? Because the second one seems more important.
-
The fact that you believe the only opposition party is fascist proves your shitty system will never change
