    It’s not ad hominem. I’m not saying you’re wrong because this is your first election, I’m saying I can tell this is your first election because voting third party is incredibly naive. If this isn’t your first election, then you should know better.

        No, I’m attacking what you said by calling it naive. I never once intimated that your belief was wrong because you were young. I also think that anyone above the age of 22 who doesn’t vote Biden is also wrong. It has nothing to do with age.

        I was simply giving you the benefit of the doubt by assuming you’d never been burned by voting third party before. Am I wrong to do that? Are you actually stupid, and not naive?

          my identity has nothing to do with what I’m saying. it’s an ad hominem and you should be ashamed.

            Like I already said, your identity isn’t what makes the decision to let Trump win any more or less wrong. This being your first election would just make it a much more understandable and forgivable mistake. If this isn’t your first time abstaining from voting, then it’s a much less forgivable mistake.
