It’s a common misconception, but if you registered “Independent Party” you aren’t “independent” you are a member of your state’s Independent party, who has a platform and agenda you may or may not agree with. What you actually want is called an “unaffiliated” voter status. The good news is, all you have to do is…nothing!
LA Times had a good summary a few years back: https://www.latimes.com/politics/la-pol-ca-american-independent-party-california-registration-card-20180405-story.html
You don’t need to register with any party to show you don’t like R or D, do nothing or choose "unaffiliated if you want to be “little i independent”.

I don’t like Republicans either, but I still vote in the Republican primary. You have a duty to yourself and your country to vote.
If you don’t vote, you’re just allowing others to choose for you. How do you think that’s gonna go?
I do vote, just not in the primaries. My stste requires me to be a member of a party to vote in their primary.
There is no chance in hell that I will be a registered Republican to vote in their primary, and the Dems aren’t worth the effort here.
