    I’m voting blue, and you should too

    But if it’s a competition for engagement, why did we have to go with the least engaging candidate possible?

      Because the system isn’t fixed yet.

      Unfortunately, we have to engage in order to fix it. It won’t just fix itself so that we can participate with a clean ego conscience.

        So much this. This is a shitty game, but the only way to fix the game, is to play. Keep voting blue to beat the fascist reds, and in primaries, vote with your heart. A strong voter turnout for both will make the red party irrelevant until they move more to the center, while also pushing blue more left.
