[–] PostMalort@lemmy.ml 8 points 2 years ago (1 child) If people are always afraid of the other guy and vote for the lesser of two evils we get our horrible two party system. Nothing to do with being contrarian. If the candidate can't win on their merits and need the other guy to be demonized that's a problem. I'm personally tired of voting out of fear instead of hope. permalink fedilink source parent hideshow 2 child comments replies: [+] TheTimeKnife@lemmy.world 0 points 2 years ago (1 child) [deleted] permalink fedilink source parent hideshow 2 child comments replies: [–] PostMalort@lemmy.ml 0 points 2 years ago Don't be daft. Trump won because he got more votes. Fyi I voted for Hillary which didn't matter. I'm not looking for a perfect candidate, but it would be nice to have one that's not owned by lobbyists permalink fedilink source parent
