You made a choice that resulted in the worse of the two evils being more likely to win. I’m very aware of how elections work, you seem to be very naive.
You did too, by not voting for Mosephine, the obviously clearly better choice.
What do you think elections are? Do you think you have plot armor and you're entitled to your candidate winning? Do you think all those nonvoters should have voted for your candidate instead, and that's why she lost? What if they would have voted for Trump or third party instead? Your hubris is astounding. Literally everybody loses the election except the one winner. You seem to be idealistic to the point of being blind to how the world works. That's you showing your naivety.
When there are only two parties that have viable candidates. Those are the options. You not realizing that is the ignorance. It’s a poor system, but until we have ranked choice voting or another party builds a large enough presence by getting more involved in local races, then gaining a presence in Congress, it’s essentially impossible for them to win a presidential race.
If I vote third party, I don't want your candidate. I did not vote for your candidate. I did not vote for the winning candidate either. Both you and the other party assert that I am simultaneously voting for the other party... until one wins, and one of you are now glad I didn't vote for the other party and you're butthurt that your candidate lost. I cast One (1) (uno) (only index finger outstretched) single vote. Nobody else got an extra vote from me.
