Voting third party in the american system is a waste of time. If voting third party is your true self, then your true self is a waste of time.

Is it not better, by definition, than spending time dishonestly?

I don't consider having an impact, even if it's not exactly the one you'd like to have, to be worse than pissing away your vote.

A vote spent dishonestly is what I'd call a pissed away vote.

Enjoy your bigger evil just because you needed to feel morally superior. Definitely worth it.

Sounds like you're saying "anyone who isn't with me is against me."
