    F*** this guy

    But are we actually gonna pretend that mail-in-voting can’t potentially be sketchy?

    Its not pretending. It just is a baseless allegation that has no evidence. The only reason it is being touted is to perpetuate voter marginalization.

    So basically it wouldn’t be any amount of voter fraud we don’t already deal with in elections?

    instead of not voting please vote third party. maybe it's a little naive but I really believe votes to third party candidates can help raise the legitimacy of third party candidates in the future and slowly work toward eradicating a two party system.

    They absolutely can. 5% of the national vote gets a third party public funding in the next election. Its a big first step towards dismantling the two party system.

    Generally speaking yes, that would be the conclusion.

    It is so negligible that any suggestion of it undermining the legitimacy of an election has absolutely no precedent.

    And the current measures to limit and discredit it as an option, as we're seeing with disruptions to the mail service, are needlessly cruel in a pandemic.

    the problem with most people making claims itt is you get all your news from one extreme end of the dying MSM spectrum or the other. or worse- from social media. just reading some of your guys' takes 🙄 a lot of you dont have a goddamn clue what you're talking about it, it just sounds convincing to you.

    get your information from multiple sources, do your own research, have an open mind and ability to think critically for yourself, speak to other people constructively (and calmly), and stop attacking strangers that have different values than your own.

    it isn't always good vs evil, wrong vs right. everybody needs to chill tf out. this covid lockdown really has people in their own heads too much.
