If you want a third party, start on the local levels. Nobody is going to vote for a third party, because risking the greater evil to win isnt worth throwing your vote away on a third party candidate on. Alternatively, seek reform within one of the 2 parties, to push for an agenda which allows more than 2 parties to exist.

The two party system is the late stage result of a first past the post system. People are not to blame for voting strategically/rationally.

Voting for the "lesser evil" is indistinguishable from voting republican or democrat because you think everything they do is awesome. It will be taken as approval for more big government, higher taxes, higher spending, more debt, more government and more war. If you never vote for a third party, you'll never have one.

Besides, by voting democrat, you're already throwing your vote away. If you're going to throw it away anyway, why not at least vote for a respectable candidate with a sensible party, instead of wasting it on a candidate who has dementia leading a party that has become demonstrably Marxist?

@sn0man: "Jo Jorgensen.

I mean, if you're going to waste your vote you may as well waste it on someone who at least doesn't have dementia. And hey, maybe if enough of you vote for her you actually WILL have a viable third party."

Kinda, sorta, but also not really. Libertarians are essentially fighting for 5% of the vote just so they can finally be on the ballot in all 50 states next time and get a few million dollars (10 I think) in the next election. That may have been helpful a couple decades ago, but modern presidential campaigns spend a few billion now. 10 million just isn't going to cut it.

They're only running so they can get $10 million? What the hell are you on about?

Are you suggesting you prefer the status quo? A perpetual two party system, both led by dinosaurs with various mental competency issues, is a better option than voting for a third party?

Are you voting for him because you think he's a good candidate, or because he's just not Trump? I'm doing the latter. I think Biden is senile and massivley dumb, but that's still a leg up on Trump. I just hope Biden has good advisors and they run the country for him. Anything is better than Trump, but leave it to the democratic party to give us only a marginally better candidate. Seriously, whats up with that party? This is the best you can do? WE need a third party in the USA - called the reasonable candidate party.

Jo Jorgensen.

If this were to be the price of an XSeX, would you still buy it if you're already planning too or would that be a deal breaking price? I wouldn't personally buy any gaming system for that much, but that's me.

Definitely a dealbreaker. I was considering a switch to XSX this gen, but at that price I wouldn't buy either console.

People on Gamefaqs are defending this shit, I kid you not.

Not gamers. Advertising shills, reputation management shills and "influencers". They're effing everywhere now.

@zaryia:

Multiple blatantly left wing democrat supporting media organizations citing the same anonymous sources does not corroboration make. And Fox is a Disney company - they report what they're told to report just like the rest of them do. It's still rumor.

A variation on this fallacy is the appeal to rumour. Because the source of a rumour is typically not known, it is not possible to determine whether to believe the rumour. Very often false and harmful rumours are deliberately started in order to discredit an opponent.

"Interdependently"? LOL

Imagine needing to always do straw-mans.

If you want to talk fallacious arguments, may I direct you to "appeal to anonymous authority"

CNN is a credible source for you, is it?

"The Associated Press, New York Times, Fox News (!) and Washington Post quickly confirmed Goldberg’s reporting."

https://www.theguardian.com/us-news/2020/sep/05/trump-fox-news-journalist-jennifer-griffin-soldiers-losers

https://www.theatlantic.com/politics/archive/2020/09/trump-americans-who-died-at-war-are-losers-and-suckers/615997/

While it’s impossible to directly prove any of these allegations, there is an impressive amount of corroborating evidence. Almost all of it supports Goldberg’s reporting.

This isn't appeal to authority. It's just a high amount of corroboration from trusted sources.

Anonymous authority. Even worse.

There is no "corroborating evidence". It's all "anonymous sources say". They're all citing the same "anonymous sources".

It's all rumors. Like the pee pee dossier, or Russian collusion. You people never learn.

https://thehill.com/homenews/administration/515062-trump-called-american-war-dead-in-french-cemetery-losers-report

Before a planned visit to honor the American dead at a French cemetery just outside Paris in 2018, President Trump called the U.S. service members who were buried there during World War I “losers," sources told The Atlantic.

In another conversation Trump reportedly said that the 1,800 marines who lost their lives in the battle of Belleau Wood were “suckers” for getting killed. The president reportedly asked aides about historic details about WWI, including “Who were the good guys in this war?”

Trump has previously made controversial comments about veterans. In 2015, before his presidential tenure, Trump said that Sen. John McCain (R-Ariz.), a Vietnam veteran who was a prisoner of war in North Vietnam, wasn’t a war hero “because he was captured. I like people who weren’t captured.”

Just imagine if Obama said this? but since it's Trump his supporters will brush it off and call it fake news.

And he said it while eating a baby, peeing on Stormy Daniels, and waving a Nazi flag.

You people are ridiculous.
