I am so so divided on if I should vote for biden or not. I wanna vote third party to at least do something or should I just stay home and protest and advocate where I can? Thoughts?

    You can vote for biden or you can vote for the guy that promises to use the doj against his enemies or anyone polling better than he is AND promises to deploy the army across the country to “keep the peace” on his first day in office.

    Even a 3rd party vote is a vote FOR trump.

      What if they impeach him while he’s in office next time? Edit: and he vacates the presidency

      What could go wrong? ;3

      By this logic, if you don’t donate to Biden you are donating to Trump.

      If you don’t phone bank for Biden you are phone banking for Trump.

      If you don’t volunteer for Biden’s campaign you’re volunteering for Trump’s campaign.

      etc etc

        Those are vastly different in resource requirements than filling in a bubble, unless you were already planning on donating, doing a phone bank, of volunteering for another candidate.

        Filling in the top circle or the one below it takes you like a second if you are already voting.

          So? The same logic still applies. In fact, it’s even worse that you’re working so hard to get Trump elected by not volunteering for Biden or donating to Biden’s campaign! By not doing everything you can to get Biden elected, you’re doing everything you can to get Trump elected.
