There’s a trolly going down a track with 5 people tied to it. You can pull a lever to slow the trolly down and it will only run over 1 person, or you can do nothing and it will run over all 5.
This guy: “Anyone who would pull the lever for the lesser evil of running over 1 person deserves the greater evil of running over all of them.”
Except you could pull the 3rd party lever that kills no one, but because that lever dOeSnT hAvE a rEaLiStiC cHaNcE, you’d still pull the lever that killed a person.
More like the third lever is a lever that does absolutely nothing but comfort the person pulling with a dumb sign that says, “your moral purity is still intact”, 5 people still die. Spoiler, your moral purity is not intact, you just lie to yourself that it is.
Or maybe you’re the one coping because deep down you know if everyone stopped licking the boots of Democrats and Republicans, America wouldn’t be in such a dangerous place.
One month before the election is not the time to be building a 3rd party. Why do I already know I won’t hear a damn thing from 3rd party people come December, and they’ll stay quiet until mid 2028?
