By the way, if I were to vote in the 2016 election — which I am not going to — I’d vote for Jill Stein.
Just in case anyone was curious.
Update: I did get registered and decided to vote. I did indeed vote for Jill Stein.

So why not vote for Jill Stein? Or tell other people why you’re voting for her?
I understand what you’re getting at, but I won’t because the time and effort it’d take for me to register in this state and to vote is not worth the marginal utility of the vote to change anything.
How difficult is it for you to register and vote? In this state, I literally registered to vote when I got my driver’s license (I did nothing). I moved so I had to get my Real ID compliant driver’s license (hi Homeland Security!). I changed it and I changed my registration in the same day. My IDs do not match exactly . Were you born at home? Plan on getting on a plane any time soon (or renewing your driver’s license when it expires)? You’re going to have to go to the DMV and go through the entire thing if you plan on getting on a plane in country or carry your passport with you if your state isn’t Real ID compliant. Changing my registration was 1)filling out a form and 2)dropping it off (it was the deadline for the primary). I have a ballot for the primary now.
I haven’t looked into it much for NC, but it doesn’t seem that hard.
I’m aware of the Real ID requirements, but will comply as late as possible. The less Orwellianism I have to expose myself to, the better. But no way to avoid it as I am not a fan of living off-grid.
But in reality, systemic collapse is going to happen sooner or later, anyway. Climate change will make sure of that. My vote won’t change that even a little bit.
For the continued existence of humanity, probably better that it happens earlier, actually.
