> because the single, viable, alternate option is even more despicable

these 2 lies continue to crack me up.

Lets look at it from the other perspective. There are people trying to provide alternative options. They are not winning because you are not voting for them. There is no excuse, there is no one to point to, it is your vote and you cast it. What others do should have no influence.

If all the voters really cant make their own decisions, if they really cant think for themselves: Then you would provide a major example by doing your own thinking and making your own choices. They would all follow like the sheep they are portrayed as by these lies.

if non of that makes sense, maybe those ignorant enough to provide alternative options deserve your support in their futile effort? it seems the honorable thing to do
