Third parties that can never win can in turn not make policy decisions.

One day we might get stv approval voting instant runoff or one of the methods that allow 3rd parties to win push for that at the state level instead of fantasies that can never work

We are literally vote in a Hitler figure who is going to build concentration camps and wreck the country or stick with sanity. The lesser of two evils is necessary until the second major party stops running Hitler.

Those whose preferred ordering of candidates was third party clinton Trump contributed to the outcome they did not want with zero chance now, in the last 100 years or in the next 100 years ever electing a third party.

Lebanon isn't the beaten up victim they are scumbags that host a terrorist army. If this specific conflict didn't exist they would still be a terrorist state run by a gang of thugs.

The situation is thus there are so many white people especially white men voting essentially for Hitler no matter what anything in fact more liberal than Obama risks losing enough votes on the margins to plunge our nation into darkness and chaos. A US where 35% of white men wanted hitler instead of 55% wouldn't have this problem.

Oh BTW Trump wants to help Bebe kill 2 million gazans and build condos. If you can't distinguish between Trump and Harris positions or realize that Congress is who authorizes aid you might need help

Yes any country that hosts a terrorist militia should both shut it down and make peace with its neighbors. Israel should offer peace in exchange for all hostages and a lawfully administered democratic Palestinian state protected by the UN but without arms for a period of time. Unlawful Israeli settlements should be ceded to this state.

All these things are worth doing and benefit everyone except hard liners on both side which have aspirations that range from unlawful to unrealistic.

Instead of achieving any extreme ends of either party the results of current strategy is likely to be a permanent state of suffering that will directly or indirectly harm millions. Their lifes and times are worth saving.

Inherited 400M invested in real estate and went bankrupt every time he really crapped out to avoid paying everyone. He still ended up worse off than an index fund until he became a reality TV star.

Of all the things wrong with the ad why would you imagine speaking in tongues is anything but literal mental illness.
