McCain was a Republican and Kerry is a Democrat. Of course they were viable!

they didn't win. the label of "viable" is a myth.

Unless you are introducing a viable candidate

viability is a media myth. kerry was viable. mccain was viable.

You are actively supporting all the negative things about the candidate you agree with least by not voting for one of the two primary candidates.

that's not what active support is.

People don’t upvote. You’re more likely to be criticized for a position than engaged with. Opinions that disagree with the hive mind are often quickly downvoted regardless of whether or not the position has validity.

i experience this constantly on lemmy.

it's heuristic, so it doesn't matter what layout you use.
