    If I throw myself under the trolley wheels I might derail it. Happened in Tunisia.

      And how does that translate into a two party voting system? One is multiple times worse than other. What can you do so neither ends up president? Nothing. You only choice is to choose the least bad.

        I referenced Tunisia because a man committing suicide literally changed their government.

        If the only choice is “genocide lite” and “genocide deluxe” then the system must be destroyed.

        If my only choice is to vote for genocide then I want to die.

          Those two presidential cadets are your only choices for president. Please do not kill yourself over it. I can’t see how it would even be noticed by the process, let alone change it. Be just another tragedy for another family.

          Again, don’t kill yourself or even talk about it.
