Not effectively.
The consequence of voting for a 3rd minority candidate is that your vote will effectively be wasted. Or, perhaps in a less pessimistic view, a protest vote, a flavored way of blank voting. In several European voting systems, parties form coalitions, so your vote will only go to waste if the party you vote for fails to cross some minimum boundary, e.g. 2%.
As for buying electric cars, you still have at least 10 models to choose from that won't have a really bad, unfixable experience, or a high risk of the car brand going bankrupt.
So comparing buying Tesla and voting Trump seems a little simple.
- croes 2y agoIt’s not about choice, it’s about getting fooled. Both Trump and Musk fooled their supporters. If that doesn’t disqualify them, it’s not their fault. If you still believe these liars, you’re to blame.
- sshine 2y agoI'm not sure what to say. I drive a Tesla, and I never believed it would drive by itself. When it comes to the election, it's a big circus and everyone who believes the primary candidates are fools. Blame is making someone responsible for your misery, you don't have to do that.
