Yes. Do we need election reform? Badly. But until then, sitting out or “protest voting” is literally throwing away your vote. Along with the Electoral College and other factors, that’s how we ended up with a fascist, convicted-felon rapist as president, who’s currently crashing economies all over the world. Those who truly demand justice will pursue the most effective way to achieve it…

yeah whatever pal. I dont think so.
I left my vote blank with my eyes wide open and I’ll do it again if we ever get a chance to vote again and the DNC doesnt change their fascist-lite tune.

Not if most people voted a third party option. The electoral system make it harder but fact is fact people vote for the most confortable options
You only named one party
“bOtH SiDeS aRe tHe sAmE!”
We have more than two parties. But the two biggest parties are identical on all the important existential issues, yes.
