A "Showerthought" is a simple term used to describe the thoughts that pop into your head while you're doing everyday things like taking a shower, driving, or just daydreaming. The best ones are thoughts that many people can relate to and they find something funny or interesting in regular stuff.
Rules
- All posts must be showerthoughts
- The entire showerthought must be in the title
- Posts must be original/unique
- Be good to others - no bigotry - including racism, sexism, ableism, homophobia, transphobia, or xenophobia
- Adhere to Lemmy's Code of Conduct

You know that's not how elections work, but if you're genuinely interested here are some lists of third-party candidates in the US:
You can find comparable lists on the sites of many more non-frivolous political third parties in which you may be interested, which can probably be found from their Wikipedia entries.
WTF are you talking about? That's exactly how they work, and its what the person I replied to suggested I do about it.
This is just a list of people I've been repeatedly told in this thread that I should not vote for...?
This thread, specifically this comment, is telling you you should vote for alternative parties at state and local levels. The idea is to build up that third party's actual presence in government from the ground up, which is a far superior strategy to splitting a critical presidential race and feeling like you've accomplished anything good.
