The only problem with blocking people like this is that they get to say their unmitigated bloviating BS without being countered. I considered blocking all these ‘concerned third party voters’, but decided against when someone pointed out to me that all that does is let them spew their nonsense unchecked.
So does that mean you think these third party news articles posted to Lemmy are actually swaying Lemmy voters?! Come on, now… lol
Do you honestly think that by people posting a third party article, that lots of Lemmy voters are gonna suddenly drop their Harris support and go pro-third party?!
Is that the big mission you are on? To put a stop to that? Seriously?
So if you DO believe that, then are you saying that people should NOT vote third party news? That people SHOULDN’T have access to other news or other opinions?
Dear reader, we got the Shitgibbon in 2017 because a very small fraction of our voters in each of Wisconsin, Michigan, and Pennsylvania (1.07% in MI, 0.81% in PA, 1.04% in WI) defected to the Green candidate. These states were lost by a narrower margin than the number of voters who voted Stein, allowing Trump to run roughshod over the country for 4 years, being a Russian Asset and damaging the fabric of our nation’s norms, making the place a worse place. It doesn’t take a lot of voters, and yes, I am worried that some Lemmy voters will read the trip this poster is posting and decide to give Stein a chance, like those voters did in 2016.
I can’t call this guy a moron because Rule 3, but I can say ‘if you vote third party in this election with what’s at stake, you’re a fucking moron’ as a general statement. Please make the smart choice. Don’t listen to this … poster.

I support your right to your opinion, even tho I disagree with it.
I’ll keep posting, and I’ll keep voting third party! Thank you!
