I would only really get a linux tablet, I’m with you on that, I plan to use a metal lapdesk with a charachorder and magnets which will mitigate the exact issues you’re talking about while also letting me take a tablet on my flights so less bulk. Gotta get a bit creative if you’re doing it that way but it is doable.

You can plug in a keyboard

Harder than representatives, though!

That’s not related to what I said, I’m fully aware of the spoiler effect and the fact that third parties are non-viable.

I don’t see your point and you seem needlessly rude

You did not respond to anything I actually said and instead made a stock post.

voting for 3rd parties that are, for example socialist, shows dems what people are voting against them for. It’s true that this favors the gop, that cost is sometimes worth it to shift the dems farther left. If polls show a milquetoast stance on gaza doesn’t get you elected… I believe politicians losing over israel for example is why the dems are being pushed left.

i never said the third party stands a chance.

inaction is, but voting third party allows strategy adjustment based on exit polling and what third parties got votes, which does actually shift things left.

You’re right. I forgot third parties were even an option. My bad.

They have data showing people don’t vote for them if they aren’t properly aligned with them on issues like israel. They then the one that tries to appeal to those things gets elected. Based on what you’re saying there’s essentially no point at all to voting or appealing to you, because you’ll vote for them no matter what. There’s only a reason to appeal to people if what you do changes whether they vote for you.

Nobody is saying that, they’re saying to set a minimum standard to vote democrat so that candidates like this get elected. This is where they gloat and say they were right.
