Jill Stein recruiting Palestinian Americans for her running mate position

[cab67]

60. I have some Facebook acquaintances....

....who are as rabidly behind Stein as the average red-hatter is behind Trump.

She appeals to single-issue voters who hold their idealogical purity above the common good. Got to earn my vote and all of that, as though the real world doesn't matter, and to vote for a Democrat is to support the g-word in Gaza.

I have no use for such people. I hold my ideals as dearly as anyone else, but I also choose to accept reality. I was told by one of these knobs that I'm falling for the false dichotomy fallacy. I responded that it's not a fallacy if the dichotomy isn't false; there are only two candidates who could possibly win the election, and none of us can afford to be selfish.

And voting for Stein, or Kennedy, or any other alternative candidate is exactly that - selfish. It's horrifically, disgustingly selfish.
