but voting third party isn't going to help end the war at all Trump has made it get clear that if he wins he will push Israel to destroy Gaza faster. explicitly. he wants them dead. a third party vote doesn't work in a first past the post system.
If everyone voted third party, we would elect candidates who actually want to end the war, so yes voting third party does help end the war.
In a more realistic world, it pressures the Democrats to change their mind about Gaza to get the third party voters back
We live in a first-past-the-post system so everyone is systemically disincentivized to vote third party. Voting third party acts as a spoiler for the Democrats. And historically when Democrats lose they move further to the right. The most useful course of action is for everyone to vote for Kamala so we can start shifting the Overton window to the left.
