So here's a summarized conversation I just read from one of my old high school classmates on Facebook:
Classmate: "I'm sad I have to vote for Biden because he sucks, just less than Trump. I'm planning to punish the DNC for making me feel bad by voting straight Republican down ticket"
Random other person: "Vote third party instead, because Biden could always lose and your vote for him would be just as wasted."
Classmate: "I know, I'm not pretending my vote even matters because Iowa isn't a swing state."
Rando: "Then vote third party!"
Classmate: "Honestly don't even know why I'm bothering to request an absentee ballot."
Rando: "Can't fault you there."
There aren't enough Picard facepalm gifs in the world to respond to that. And yes, he's a senior engineer at Rockwell Collins. How'd you guess?
