1. Well, speaking as one, most of us who didn't vote Hillary voted third-party to avoid voting for either shill. You can doubt it, but you, like me, are using conjecture. The difference is, I'm not blaming anyone based on conjecture.
2. Yes. I don't think it's silly to vote for a different party if its base continues to alienate me and treat me like I handed Trump an election. What's silly about that? You don't like Republicans, so you wouldn't vote Republican. I generally like Democrats, but am definitely sliding away from being a fan. Do the math.
3. Firstly, I gave you a good link. A good source. Secondly, if you don't know why HuffPost is a bad source without me telling you, maybe you shouldn't get involved in these debates.
4. You don't have to think someone was being immoral to blame them. Democrats are blaming anyone but themselves for the loss of this election, and it doesn't look good on them.
Let's reiterate this conversation. This conversation didn't go, "Well, some people didn't vote for Hillary, so that's a contributing factor in why she wasn't elected." It went something along the lines of, "Bernie Bros are assholes who lost the election for Hillary." You didn't come into some innocuous intellectual conversation, so don't be surprised when I'm not all, "Yo, you're right. Thanks for pointing out the seriously obvious fucking fact that people not voting for someone means they got less votes. That's clearly what they meant when they were blaming people like me." If you're not blaming people for not voting for Hillary, you're simply saying that people not voting for her is why she lost the election, which doesn't need saying at all.
