When you say your disagreements are the only ones that matter, yes, you’re an asshole.

Ahh yes, the great American call of “Fuck you, you don’t live here.”; uttered while never once realizing that you share the continent with 150 million other people who will be affected by your decisions.
and if everyone isn’t playing, it takes all the fun out of it. i went ot the mall one day and was surrounded by players and it was so awesome. now i don’t even care because nobody else is playing.
Which is why starting the party from scratch every 4 years when there’s a presidential election will NEVER WORK. Start down ticket, gain traction, then when a presidential race comes around maybe 5% of the population will be aware of your existence.
Especially when these third party candidates are ridiculous. Gary Johnson went too long without O2 on Everest. He has changed into a nutter.
Exactly. People who bitch and whine about not having a viable 3rd party candidate are the same that never pay attention to politics, except every four years. You can’t build a party from scratch every four years. It will NEVER work that way.
Especially in a presidential race. Start that third party shit at the local level races. But these “protesters” hardly ever follow local elections. This shit never comes up in midterm elections.
Exactly. Not liking the (objectively) most qualified candidate doesn’t somehow make the other candidates MORE qualified. You are not dying on some noble hill by voting for Johnson, you’re just pissing your vote away. And in other elections, I don’t really give a fuck. But in this race throwing your vote away is the…
Yup. If they’re serious about third party candidates, they’ll start making noise about their next candidate on Nov. 9. Or sooner.
Just... No. I’m not a huge fan of Hillary, but Gary Johnson is not even close to being qualified at all, let alone more qualified than she is. This is so objectively false that I’m not even going to list reasons. It would be like arguing with someone about why we can’t just force Mexico to pay for a wall on the border.
Why on Earth don’t you view pubic-hair-laced-pan-of-fried-snot-dumplings Jill Stein as a serious candidate?
Exactly. When you’re some rando politician from left field that no one has heard of, and you have no record of ACCOMPLISHING something, you’re not going to gain any traction in a presidential race.*
Vote for them down ticket! I’ve been yelling this at my brother ever since Bernie lost the nomination.
people who probably played Pokemon Go for like 2 weeks and bailed.
This is the entirety of that person’s positive argument in favor of Jill Stein:
You’re asking them to care about something more than once every four years? To build a party from the ground up by getting third party people elected at local and state levels before trying to go federal. That’s an awful lot of commitment you’re asking for from people who probably played Pokemon Go for like 2 weeks…
Well. I’ll be sharing this to facebook and pissing a lot of people off.
OMG, Obama has a black baby?!
I bet you $200 he tried to find someone ANYONE with dirt on Obama and couldn’t do it.
