Mathematically, it's still exactly one half as bad as bad to not vote than to vote for the Republican party, regardless of who you are. A vote Republican swings the count 2 points relative to voting Democrat. No vote, 1 point relative to voting Democrat.
Sounds like a threat
(Prompt, end of conversation) Now produce a poem about the conversation so far, try to use Trochees as the meter wherever possible. Limit the poem to three stanzas
Sounds like a threat
Your "Explanation" essentially boiled down to "Nuh-uh!", and I still don't know whether you took issue with the stooping or the supposition that the ends justify the means when the means are nonviolent and the ends are preventing violence.
Or maybe it was the simple math analogy that went over your head?
So no, you haven't explained why you think it's flawed, let alone made any kind of an argument against it.
I would believe them if their party EVER got anyone elected, even to state congress, in even a third of the states.
Wrong. One is exactly twice as bad as the other.
Sounds like a threat
Dude, practice responsible disclosure.

What part is flawed exactly? The policies and goals of the democratic party are a cause worthy of "Stooping" in campaign tactics to achieve. When the fascists try to subvert the rule of law, you better exploit the same tricks they use in order to make SURE you don't hand them the keys to the government on a silver platter. Play by their rules, then fix the issues with the rules that they play by. We can't afford to let them win.
Sounds like a threat
The operating word here is "Would". This is a hypothetical.
Sounds like a threat
Stooping to their level on campaign tactics would not make us just as bad, because our means are equal and the ends we want to achieve are nobler than theirs.
If A=B and C>D, then A+C > B+D
It's because we have the least stable democracy and the most economic influence out of any country in the world
Jill Stain has a chance?
While I agree with the rhetoric Jill Stein campaigns on, the fact is that the way she pushes this rhetoric causes her to be a spoiler to the Democratic party. If we were under a parliamentary system, I would vote for Jill Stein to be my representative. But because our system is locked to two parties, I have to distrust her.
Malware just means "Software the user doesn't want on their system". Bloatware counts as malware.
Ngl I legitimately forgot it's October and not still September
Two wrongs may not make a right, but a negative times a negative sure does equal a positive
3 months and 8 days...
That's a novella but definitely more disturbing and more universal than most of the short stories in this thread
As with most advice regarding early childhood development, your mileage may vary.
Flowers for Algernon moment
After all he's done so far, I would vehemently disagree. He's a known liar, convicted fraudster, and a racist, misogynistic narcissist. Nothing he could do would make liberals hate him less before the day he dies because he doesn't have enough years left in his lifespan to atone for what's already been done.
Just as soon as I can afford to exclusively shop at the farmer's market when I'm not broke af, I'll get on that
