Indeed. In pirate circles there is a saying about not paying for the product even if piracy was not an option. Thereby, I would not vote for you even if there were truly only two options.
Assuming third party and non-voters vote Democrat is silly. To become a silly goose, assume all votes carry the same weight in the USA. Even sillier geese scapegoat others for their losses instead of reflecting on why they lost.
You just described Biden in 2020. Among his trash heap of accomplishments are ending a rail strike by mandate. I wish he had moved left.
Democrats do not move left without actions like those in France or Serbia. Said actions are consolations to control the fires.
Vote. It is a simple activity. Don’t expect leftist change without discomfort and a fight.
Not speaking English natively and liking Hulk is racism? Every generation needs a clergy to keep them speaking the King’s tongue, I suppose.
During the last Presidential election, Utah’s numbers did not shift right. Historically Mormon’s vote as a block.
Emigration from other states is changing voting behavior in Utah with only 50% of the current population being LDS. Emigration might even be moving the state rightward since right radicals leave states like California for Republican states like Utah or Idaho.
A problem Mormon’s fail to understand is that they are not seen as Christian by Evangelicals. Thereby when religious purges come, Mormon’s are on the menu.
The 2% claim is wild. Among the counted are “Libertarians” and “None of these candidates” voters. Assuming third party and non-voters would vote Democrat is silly.
I know about the spoiler effect. I voted Biden in 2020. He ended a railroad strike by mandate. The best Democrats could offer in 2024 was “at least we aren’t Trump”.
Vote, maybe for a Democrat even. Then workers need to stop doing their jobs generally to see consolations under representative democracy. Take care of your fellow workers.
