I think it’s an acceptable course of action to vote 3rd party if you are in a solid red or solid blue state. However, I think the way you phrased it got people’s hackles raised.
“It’s alright to vote 3rd party if you’re not in a swing state” or something like that. The Overton window shifted away from the idea that there’s some moral failing for voting for Biden because of the anti-voting astroturfing that happened recently.
Where are you getting this idea of anti-voting astroturfing? All the propaganda I see seems to be catered to getting people to vote for the lesser of two evils.
Also don’t get me wrong. I’m very much against not voting. I just don’t see any money being spent on pushing anti-voting but maybe I’ve missed it. 🤷
Russia is known to do this at this point. A sudden spike in talking about how voting for [current DNC candidate] is immoral usually fortells a report a few months later that it was started by Russians being paid to spread that message. The fact that lemmygrad, .ml, and Hexbear users suddenly started pushing it 2 weeks ago right after Biden started making serious progress against Israel suggests this is the case. I don’t know that Russian bots are using Hexbear as a staging ground, but even if they aren’t it’s still at the very least directly downstream from Russian propaganda.
You think “tankies” want trump? I’m going to need a source for that one.
The other groups I’m totally with you on. But I don’t understand why more moderate lefties are so quick to pretend that far lefties are fascist. Unless you meant something else by that term, I’ve only ever heard it used to describe socialists.
Liberals are just a hop and a skip away from being full blown nazis so they hate on the actual Left to try and convince people they are radical crazy people and the liberal nazis are the norm.
Iirc, Infrahaz is or was in favor of Trump, as was Caleb Maupin (who also notably worked for Russia Today) when he was still around. Also, Tankies aren’t socialists.

Thanks for agreeing. 🤝
How would you have phrased it?

Kind stranger, I will keep an eye out for this. Thank you for bringing this to my attention and for talking with me like a normal person. 🙂
I hope you have a great day. 👈😎
