The app for independent voices

Good luck with that. I've considered it myself. When do you suppose COVID will be under control enough Americans will be allowed to travel to other countries?

The way I've squared the circle is, a vote for a third party or a write in for 'none of the above' reduces the percentage of the total vote received by both the Republican and the Succ dem. I have quite a few races on my November ballot, its not just the presidential one for me unfortunately. It's not even a rounding error on the prez vote and, even the local city council cop-bootlicker won't know the difference, but in terms of 'what I can do', that seems like literally the most effective thing I can do, at the ballot box at least.

Dems always fight the tide of change - Obama spent tax money actively fighting off challenges to DOMA in court until literally Obergefell, if memory serves - but if enough people hit the streets and yell their heads of and change minds until 90% of America believes something to be an obvious moral truism, about ten years later Dems will cautiously endorse it. That's my bleak little ray of sunshine.
