When did support for "the lesser of two evils" become morally and ethically not just OK, but widely acceptable? I'm truly baffled by the collective social moral compass pointing away from what's the "right" thing to do; and not the "oh well" thing to do.
This election clearly demands a 3rd party or independent runner's support! Enough with comparing two horribly shitty choices in the face of Trump & Hillary and debating and arguing which one stinks a little less. The world is in dire need of collective awakening and breaking away from the stigma of established ways of doing things. It's 2016! This is the future. Humans should know better by now!

- The Democratic Mind Trick wants you to give up your vote in fear of a Trump world. Sneaky and not a good moral reason to throw away your vote for your silence.********
