Trying to build viable third parties by voting for them in presidential elections is like trying to build a third door in your house by repeatedly walking into the wall where you want the door to be. (lemmy.world)

None of that has anything to do with the topic at hand.

It's my choice to make whether that is true.

That's not how reality works, I'm afraid.

That is exactly how subjective reality works. Everything is interconnected, so whether something is relevant to some subject is purely a matter of choice.

Except some people of questionable intelligence and culture consider their choice on that matter more important than that of others.
