      other side.

      That’s what I’m talking about…

      Roughly a third of eligible voters don’t identify as either party.

      Most of them rarely vote, a few vote third party. You could argue both groups aren’t voting, but you can’t pretend they’d all vote D instead. They’d probably just not vote.

        Anyone who is undecided at this time is either extremely naive or doesn’t want to publicly admit their real position for some reason. These sides are basically authoritarian fascism only concerned with rich people getting richer and everyone else. We don’t debate policy anymore. The right has none. They fabricate a bunch of bullshit to keep people angry and then grift grift grift every chance they get.

        If you’re not in the “everyone else” camp, stop here.

        Otherwise, if you are, none of us are going to get everything we want. Let’s get that out there right now. If you are with a group of friends deciding on where to go to dinner, you compromise. You don’t sit there and refuse and just starve. That’s life. Make your case for the choice you want. If you don’t have the support, work to find your next best choice. Don’t sit there and do nothing.
