If third party voting is the definition of privilege, how do you explain so many Bernie followers doing it? Bernie's base was not the 1%. These were people without privilege saying, "If I'm offered more of the status quo, I think I'll just stay home."
And not all Trump voters caused harm. A lot of Trump voters got exactly what they wanted. How's that harm to them? Do you mean "harm to the country?" Well, who are you to say what's harm to the country? "One man's terrorist is another man's freedom fighter," as the saying goes.

No, harm to non-white people. Voting for Jill Stein is a specie of white privilege- in the face of a man threatening harm, hell promising harm, to non-whites, and you vote on some Ivory tower shit- only way is because he was not threatened himself. The guy I was reading said Trump voters must hate POC and immigrants because they voted for a guy who promised to fuck POC and immigrants over. But em didn't seem to get that his Jill vote fucked those people just as surely. I'm not posting this to mess with you- it just genuinely sickened me to hear someone complaining about how Trump voters obv don't care about some groups of people- em thinks he is educated but didn't see his stupidity at all.
