      Have you considered that you’re a rube who will continue to believe total falsehoods even when evidence to the contrary smacks you in the face

      Which party has been working hard to keep third parties off the ballot for at least the past few election cycles?

      Which party’s supporters get quite upset at the idea of someone voting third party?

        Well there was some complaining about libertarian voters costing Trump some states in 2020 IIRC.

      *Steeples fingers*
      *Paces slowly*
      *Starts to speak*
      *Hesitates, stops*
      *Faces out window, somberly*
      Well considering that it's 2024 and you're still using role-playing asterisks maybe it's either because you're young or a sentient IRC channel.

      I mean, this isn’t a matter of opinion, this is based on how leftists, liberals, and right-wingers answered questions when polled.

      An important note to read that and not come back and say something stupid, “liberal” can be a confusing term with multiple meanings. When I say “liberal” and NYT says “centrist” we mean the same thing.
