      You know the liberal I work with treats (unintentionally) the democrat voterbase like it’s this mindless creature when it comes to voting democrat; I tell him why don’t dem voters vote third party and he insists that ‘realistically’ it’s between Biden and Trump (or he did when Biden was the candidate); I ask him, how can Biden win: isn’t it via votes? Aren’t those votes being cast by sentient human beings? Are they not able to use their brains and vote for Jill Stein (I personally support Jill Stein)? How is Trump going to win? Isn’t it via votes? What’s this magic making one person win and the other lose? He keeps saying that third party can’t win, as though dem voters are unable to change their vote; he can’t address that political parties win or lose because people vote for this party vs that. He still can’t comprehend how other Western countries have more than two political parties and that they actually win elections. I think he used to assume (until I informed him otherwise) that only two political parties in every Western country won elections and the rest were just ‘there’.

      He also despises the uncommitted voters which just blows my brains.

      When Kamala became the dem candidate, I asked him why are they doing that? If the responsibility of dems winning is on the voters, and the voters MUST vote dem, then who cares about Biden’s failing mental capacity? They’re supposed to vote dem anyway, right? The onus is on the voters, not the candidates to be electable, right? Biden could literally be a drooling vegetable and people are supposed to vote for him so Trump doesn’t win, right? If they have the mental capacity to vote for someone else THEN VOTE FOR THE DAMN THIRD PARTY GODDAMNIT!@!#!$!@%!@%!#^!#%

      I genuinely despise liberals; they’re nothing more than ‘presentable’ (arguable) conservatives.
