When will you stop voting for the lesser of two evils? (Poll)

66. Well, I can't speak for others

But if a candidate said that, then I wouldn't vote for them. I haven't had much of a chance to not vote for anyone yet since I've never had the chance to vote. I think a fair number of "youth" voters out there haven't voted because of that kind of crap too.

Also, who are you to decide what line someone can or can't cross? You may be right that there are those who are privileged, but at the same time, everyone has their own limits and gets to decide what those limits are.

I agree that those limits can be rather arbitrarily drawn, though, and I would guess most of those lines are drawn close to what matters to them--hence we have people whose main issue is economics instead of racism and the prison industry, corporate power and spying instead of the mass subjugation women, etc. I think we're hitting a point where (middle-class white) people are finally starting to have themselves impacted, where they can't ignore all the other issues anymore. They then focus on the issues that are affecting them, instead of looking at how all of these issues relate to one another and are all critical in their own sense. This leads to people who are very concerned about the economic issues and willing to draw their lines there, when things like LGBT rights, racism, sexism, etc., have been around for years. This isn't to say it's wrong to be very focused on economic issues, but we do have to be careful not to place them above social rights--they are entirely interwoven and we need progress in both areas to have a shot at fixing either.
