Claiming that a third-party voter has more in common with a MAGA hat wearer is a false equivalence; the motivations and values of third-party voters are often rooted in a desire for greater representation and change.
Unlike MAGA supporters, third-party voters are typically pushing against a system they see as broken, rather than endorsing extremist or regressive policies.
If I wanted to vote for Trump, I’d vote for Trump.
For example, neither MAGA hat wearers nor third-party voters are willing to do the bare minimum to protect women, protect immigrants, or preserve democracy.
Third-party voters often push for more comprehensive protections for women, immigrants, and democracy than the major parties offer, which is why they refuse to settle for the “bare minimum.”
Voting third-party is about advocating for the policies that truly address these issues, not just accepting the status quo.
Dude, I get it. You’re mad that I’m not voting for your candidate. That’s ok. Not everyone has the same opinions as you. And that’s ok.
You get to vote for who you want. And I get to vote for who I want. Welcome to democracy.
Criticizing the status quo or otherwise giving your opinion is not the bare minimum. The bare minimum is action towards change. A third party vote cannot change anything, so it is not the bare minimum.
I’m not mad at all. I said you have the right to vote as you please and I meant it.
This is a democracy, as you pointed out. But in a democracy, I also have the right to critique your choices and explain why mine are superior.
Anyway, I don’t find your case for third party voting to be persuasive. Maybe that’s why the vast majority Americans think voting third party is an inferior choice.
I harbor no hate. I just question your judgment
And that’s fine. Not everyone agrees with you and your views either.
In fact, almost half of the country won’t be voting for your candidate. That’s what democracy is.
Yes, of course. I question their judgment for the same reason as yours.
Ultimately a third party voter has more in common with a MAGA hat wearer than they likely want to admit.

Absolutely. And vice versa.
That’s right. You’re not mad either, right?
