Great policy! Mine too

I haven't seen his other posts, but TBH, in this post he didn't say that ONLY the people voting for #lesserEvil are to blame.
That #MAGA and #Trump voters are ALSO to blame is obvious and implicit 
Now, please put PP in a can

Their Facebook, which was last updated in 2014 and was never used much, states they were at one time employed by LesserEvil: https://www.facebook.com/edward.coristine
They did work at LesserEvil in 2012, according to a now-deleted Facebook post: https://www.bostonglobe.com/2025/02/04/metro/doge-staff-northeastern-coristine/
Their father bought LesserEvil in 2011: https://www.cnbc.com/2024/09/07/lesserevil-ceo-why-i-left-wall-street-for-a-failing-snack-company.html
It's possible he hired his son when he bought the company.
Obviously, that does not mean the company or it's leadership supports them today.
Unless someone has actual evidence of their support, this is just speculation, and baseless speculation should not be enough to punish a company.
Sure, sometimes children share their parent's beliefs, but that should not be taken as an absolute. Parents certainly shouldn't automatically be held guilty of their child's crimes.
Never had any #LESSEREVIL in my life, but now it will be a conscious and committed decision, a lifestyle decision. Avoiding shit made by shitty people and their feral children.
#LESSEREVILJustSayNO
@topher @nekohayo I do agree that this is a serious concern, but given the even harder and faster #Enshittification, it seems still as a "#LesserEvil" to me compared to #Windows and #macOS.
OFC I'd love to know what - besides #CLI & #TUI tools - you depend upon.
It's basically a good #neovim preconfiguration and can be pretty awesome if you don't want to deep-dive into #OhMyZsh like @fuchsiii did.
@egalitaire @benfell the problem is the inherently shit system of the #USA.
I know this is bad but I"d rather see people try to prevent a #christofacist #dictator by all means necessary (starting with elections OFC!) than conditionlessly surrendering to #Project2025 without a fight.
I wish it was different but sadly that's the #shitshow we've got now...
I voted for this. I have only myself to blame. #LesserEvil #monsterdon #tentacles
You should all watch this! Ahmed Hudhayfa of the #AbandonBiden movement talks to Briahna Joy on their principles, positions wrt Kamala Harris, democratic party, the rhetoric of #lesserevil

the problem is that in a utterly #classist and #AntiDemocratic System like the #USA people only have the choice to vite for a #LesserEvil aka. the guy who didn't promise to instare a #Christofacist #Dicratorship and commit literal #Democide and #Genocide at home...
I know that's still not a good choice (a good choice would be #BernieSanders & #AOC!) but sadly choosing anything else will eother get drowned due to #FirstPastThePost & #WinnerTakesAll shite and/pr would empower the #OrangeTyrant!
@micchiato I know the #RatchetEffect in #USpol is the problem.
But since it's #cleptocracy with the most #paywalled elections and absurd cockblocking, what else do you propse besides "choosing the #LesserEvil" to prevent a worse future?
Seriously...
No one believes Cornel West will get elected, so it's obvious that voting for him is virtue signalling (tired-of-voting-for-lesser-evil). But a vote for West is a wasted opportunity to defend women from christo-fascists, and to defend the US from becoming a Russian satellite nation, making it more likely Trump is elected.
But hey, worth it if you can feel morally superior, right?
The #VennDiagram of people who post that quote about a vote being like a chess move and people who urge simple voting strategies like #LesserEvil or #VoteBlueNoMatterWho is almost a perfect circle.
I don´t pretend to understand #us politics, but isn´t it the case that if more states disqualify #Trump from the presidential ballot, then the #DNC could afford to (in theory of course :-)) stand a somewhat less evil #lesserevil, perhaps someone younger, a little more humane... etc. person as presidential candidate?
I must be mistaken, as is often the way.
@evan Serious answer:
In general, one ought to choose the lesser evil, but it may occur that all choices are so gravely wrong that they are disqualified; it would be unethical to choose any one of them.
For instance, if I have 3 candidates, one promising to seize the Alaskan panhandle; another to annex the Danish half of Hans Island; and the third to conquer the Turks and Caicos — then I ought to spoil my ballot.
This is ultimately a question of the limits of #utilitarian ethics.
