We have First Past the Post. You support Trump, Biden, or violent revolution -- those are the choices

That...actually sounds cool? So why is this considered a mistake?

Voting for a better alternative is not giving a vote to Trump

Incorrect.

First Past the Post says fuck you, and First Past the Post is the reality. Until we change the voting system, third parties will never gain momentum. It is statistically impossible. You may as well get hit by a meteor while turning in your winning Powerball ticket.

Oh, and nevermind that if Trump wins, none of this will matter. All future "elections" will be won by a Republican with 110% of the vote

...do you actually not realize how much worse Trump would've been?

2 - 3 year old model is effectively brand new but a lot cheaper.

I've always heard this, but where is this actually true? When I bought a Camry like a decade ago, I could get a brand new one for $19.5k or used ones with 50k miles on them for....$18k. so yeah I paid the extra 1.5k to not have to deal with potential random shit.

When my wife bought her car a few years ago it was a similar situation. The only used cars that were "a lot cheaper" had like 100k miles.

It's usually because they can't get full teams willing to work only the shitty shifts

...at the rate they want to pay them. In ye olden times the shitty shifts would pay more.
