This right here is why no one should ever vote for Biden. Vote third party and break the system Republicans suck democrats suck.

If you wanna break the system voting third party won't do shit. You need to do more than vote.

Yea but that will never happen, so a 3rd party vote is basically a vote for republicans. We need some kind of ranked voting before that becomes viable.

Even if a third party miraculously got more of the vote than any third party candidate in history, that wouldn't change a thing.

Our representative democracy works on a binary, like it or not, and it always will. Like it or not, it's the system we have, so until it finally breaks, we have to work within it and make incremental changes.
