If I had a nickel for every time people on lemmy discredited voting 3rd party or progressive candidates under the excuse of "muh RCV" or "vote blue no matter who", I'd have enough money to bribe the DNC into splitting into multiple parties.

It's so insane. They'll yell about the genocide all day but then vote for the candidates supporting the genocide.

Who do they hate the most? Jill Stein, the candidate who opposes the genocide! Make it make sense.

Dr King said it best 60+ years ago

First, I must confess that over the past few years I have been gravely disappointed with the white moderate. I have almost reached the regrettable conclusion that the Negro’s great stumbling block in his stride toward freedom is not the White Citizen’s Counciler or the Ku Klux Klanner, but the white moderate, who is more devoted to “order” than to justice; who prefers a negative peace which is the absence of tension to a positive peace which is the presence of justice; who constantly says: “I agree with you in the goal you seek, but I cannot agree with your methods of direct action”; who paternalistically believes he can set the timetable for another man’s freedom; who lives by a mythical concept of time and who constantly advises the Negro to wait for a “more convenient season.” Shallow understanding from people of good will is more frustrating than absolute misunderstanding from people of ill will. Lukewarm acceptance is much more bewildering than outright rejection.
