RE: A mathematical explanation how voting third party in 2016 is the only vote that counts
All the more reason to write in "none of the above" - thus not supporting any of them, but actively showing refusal of all of them
This is why I prefer a vote for "no rulers."
I think I might write a post on this. :)
No rulers is a good phrasing.
If I actively participate in the system of mob rule by taking the time to do the exercise, that would go against my principles, so I don't want to be counted to show increased participation. Voting none of the above would convey that I would vote for a candidate if there was another of my liking, which isn't true
Perhaps a vote for yourself, then // as the only viable option for who to rule you :)
I understand not wanting to participate - it's just tough when you not participating doesn't mean the other players with power won't stop playing the game with you. If you don't pay property taxes to show non support of the system, for example, that doesn't stop your house from being taken from you.
My house will be taken whether I vote or not. The chance of my one vote counting is lottery ticketish, and compromising my principles is too a high price to pay
