It has been said a gazillion times over the last few months, but is it getting through to those who need to hear it?

    If you just don’t understand the concept of hypotheticals, you may be on the spectrum, fyi

      Don’t use being on the spectrum as an insult. It is unbecoming.

      I don’t think hypothetical means what you think it means. Either that or you are misunderstanding or misrepresenting what the article is arguing.

      The article is implies that 3rd party voters are all Harris > Trump voters if it came down to a choice between the two. That is not a hypothetical, that is an unsubstantianted assumption.

        It’s not an insult, I’m being serious. The hypothetical is the vote totals given in the comment you responded to. In that hypothetical scenario, voting for your perfect candidate gets your least favorite candidate elected. You seem unable to consider it as a standalone scenario that may or may not be similar to real life voter tallies. That’s a common indicator of neurodivergence.
