    Oh no, you’re still wrong about that, you letting fascists win is absolutely benefiting fascists. You refusing to accept that has required you to make insane leaps of mental gymnastics. I just gave up because no amount of logic can reach you.

      “Insane leaps of mental gymnasics,” like, “Doing nothing has no impact on the election.”

      As opposed to “logic,” like, “Doing nothing is a +0 which is neither an increase nor a decrease except also it is a decrease because it’s not an increase and not increasing is the same as decreasing because zero doesn’t exist.”

      Tell you what, if doing nothing counts as helping someone, then rest assured that I’ll give Kamala my “help.”

        I’m surprised that you seem to not realize that you helped bring Trump back in power. This was the plan, wasn’t it? Jill Stein had no chance at gaining the office, but you rallied against Harris nonetheless.

        Those .3-.5% in key states could have stopped Trump, and solidified under a banner that isn’t anti-LGBTQ+.

        The Green party essentially is under Trump.

          First of all I live in Illinois, so my vote doesn’t matter at all. Second, Harris would’ve needed a lot more that 0.3% to win, she lost PA by a solid 2.0%. Even if you do the unrealistic thing y’all do of adding third party votes to your candidate’s total, you’re not going to have enough to win.

          But none of that is really relevant. The people who helped Trump win were the people who voted for him. I didn’t help either candidate win because I didn’t vote for either candidate. I helped Kamala exactly as much as I helped Trump.

          I don’t really have an interest in continuing this purely semantic argument where I consider myself to be objectively correct about the meaning of terminology.
