Idk, I'm just voting for the least shitty candidate out of the two and moving on. I don't get why people care about parties at all and just focus on the issues that need to be solved and how they say they are going to solve it and what their character says about what they most likely are going to mess up.
I don't take sides but I still want to see big changes that from my point of view would improve things for everyone, splitting giant companies and Foster competition, improving infrastructure to help create jobs, a deep focus on fixing root issues in healthcare instead of just slapping a bandage on it, better affordable internet accessibility for farmers and rural towns, as well as taking steps to preserve the environment for future generations, etc.
I don't get the hate from all these people, I'm not even in the middle I just care about what I think needs to get done.
The issue is that right now one entire party has become an issue that needs to be solved.
To each its own, this picking sides and fighting thing is counter productive and draws focus from the real issues.
That's just my stance, abolish all parties and let a man stand on his own merits proving that he will act on the promises he has made to his fellow man.
It's not counterproductive when one side wants to do horrible things to people like me and my friends and the other doesn't. When one side actively endangers people and takes their rights away and the other doesn't. Those are very, very real issues to a lot of people, and acting like that doesn't matter at this point is just willful ignorance. You don't have to identify with one side to openly disagree with the other. You can prefer a system without parties or teams without refusing to stand up against a team that already exists, whether you like it or not, and has made their horrible views very well known.
