That didn't address any of my concerns, but okay...
Let me ask you this. How many significant "third parties" have gotten a significant number of votes in elections, in the 250 years that this country has been sovereign?
There was Roosevelt in 1912 with the progressive party that got most of his voters after splitting from republicans (supported largely by the north at the time). The [white supremacist] American Independent party in 1968 split off from the democrat party (at that time, supported largely by the south) The Independent party in 1992 split off from the republican party, and even though they got nearly a fifth of the popular vote, they didn't get any electoral votes.
Historically, a third party has only gotten significant traction by infiltrating and then splitting off from a major party. Why would we not want to fracture this broken democrat party into something useful? We have the opportunity, and I firmly believe that the youth (once they start voting and getting on their feet enough to stand in this sea of shit that we find ourselves in) will make that move to split and reform the party to be something better.
I can understand not wanting to vote for someone who endorses some of the things you oppose (and some things that you might even be okay with!), but I do not understand still withholding that vote when the other option is someone whose actions repeatedly endorse ALL the things you oppose, but orders of magnitude worse.
I see this and think to myself, huh, this has happened multiple times in the past-- I wonder how the road might be encouraging drivers to go this fast?
No streetlights, ~~no reflective signs near the turn~~ (there are signs if you are heading south), the road is completely straight leading up to the turn, and the lanes look huge (can fit nearly two cars in one lane).
And they are wondering why this happens?
