[Request] If you don't live in a swing region/state, better to vote third party than waste your vote on an almost certain outcome. Yeah?

Is this logic flawed? Obviously in swing races, vote how it's needed, but if it's probably going to be a landslide, why not vote for a third party? Some regions even allow for multiple party representation if enough people show interest, so it could be doing future good (if you think more parties is better representation)

comfydecal OP ,

Duuuuddee I wish I ever had a popular voting stance on "either side" lol

comfydecal OP ,

But is there any path for that to actually happen? In the US multiple recent presidential elections the popular vote didn't align with the electoral college, and I haven't heard of any actual movement towards changing that

comfydecal OP ,

Why would supporting Biden be showing more of signal than voting for someone else? If I'm in a state that is going to be for Trump since it's been Republican for every election since the party's inception, what is the benefit in sending the message I voted for Biden vs John Doe in the gray party?

comfydecal OP ,

Interesting, thanks for the heads up

comfydecal OP ,

Cool, you seem fun

Why do the lower classes need to continue sacrificing? What's brand new jets to new poor person ratio for the climate?

Reminder: crypto isn’t solarpunk. It’s cyberpunk.

Listening to a recent episode of the Solarpunk Presents podcast reminded me the importance of consistently calling out cryptocurrency as a wasteful scam. The podcast hosts fail to do that, and because bad actors will continue to try to push crypto, we must condemn it with equal persistence....

Yeah I don't get why solar punks hate on crypto? Do they like the wastefulness of fiat? Do they understand how much non renewables are used to process a single credit card payment? Or do they have a better form of money?

Crypto could be solar punk, just requires people to use... Solar power... Or am I missing something?

It gets deeper: NSA watches which pages you go to on Wikipedia and many nation states also sensor the site

Plus, I'll take a guess that many other nation states have no fly lists

Thanks for sharing! Their stuff is always good quality

comfydecal ,

This is a very interesting take and observation, thank you for sharing

comfydecal ,

Yeah I could see that. I think I view it more as the working class, which now includes a lot of gig work - which doesn't have the same "family" feel as a lot of blue collar jobs have

Then the god is not "all powerful" if they can't kill themselves

Movement of any kind is a paradox if measured

Hmm maybe being the only all powerful being is lonely and wouldn't that be hell if you were forced to continue existence?

So if everyone in the US stops buying publically traded companies, it would bankrupt the top 10%?
