    If I have to choose between eating a shit sandwich and a shit sandwich with broken glass, I’m gonna choose the one without the broken glass every time. So many people seem to think that eating the one with broken glass, or letting someone else choose, is somehow taking a stand against shit sandwiches.

      is somehow taking a stand against shit sandwiches.

      If enough people get angry and vote third party, it can change the outcome of an election.

      This incentivizes both parties to minimize the amount of people they anger in a close race.

        If enough people get angry at one time they can change the outcome in a way that’s essentially random. Come on, the math is really not that hard.
