well if you don’t vote now, you no longer have to worry about that, as chances are there will be no more elections that the democrats could even try to win.
Given the choice between ruin the country and the planet in that order and “this candidate is uninspired” or “wow not very good”, you have to be a giant entitled sack of shit to make everyone go down the road of ruined country and planet. We would ALL like it to be a better choice, but for christs sake don’t be an obstinate fuckstick: it’s not getting you a better candidate, it’s literally just punishing everyone if you stay home.
Choose between: “you might get to choose a good option again”, and “you almost definitely won’t”. That’s what’s on the table. You HAVE a preference, but it’s not an inspired choice. When it’s orange Hitler vs green Hitler, by all means, make your stand. If you are making a stand between orange Hitler and “meh” you deserve a brow beating every hour of every day until November.
I agree, until that happens though, all of us are required to choose the least bad option.

Not trying to win elections? They are in office right now, having won an election.
What are you even talking about?

Claiming that the democrats are throwing the election to the fascists seems more like an excuse to justify your doing the same thing.

That’s a much better point to make than the conspiracism you started with. Why didn’t you start with that?
To your response, do you not have local elections that affect your life? Do you think not voting will improve your home?

What else are they going to do? Just run anyway with no support and torpedo the chances anyone beats the Cheeto king?
Have you considered… Pragmatism?
