Yes - it sucks to have to support yet another Overton Window shifting Democrat who almost certainly won’t actually do anything to actually accomplish any truly leftist goals

It doesn't suck if you don't vote for that person. I'm personally voting Green Party, but I support the Socialist cause and would vote them if they were on ballet in my state.

The rest of that sentence, which you unsurprisingly ignored:

but that still beats the hell out of allowing the election of a would-be tyrant who fully intends to dismantle every part of the federal government that provides any benefit at all to the people or that in any way inpedes the ability of the wealthy few to rape and pillage to their hearts’ content and to invoke the Insurrection Act to deploy the military domestically to put down any protests that might result.

I didn't ignore it at all. I simply don't believe it like you do.

I'm voting 3rd party. Accept it and move on.

I'm not fucking voting for your candidate. Ok? Accept it and move on.

What makes you think I care who you're voting for?

Oh so you don't care that I am voting 3rd party, right?

So no reason to be mad then! Let's be friends!
