    We are reading it, we agree with the other guy. You’re wrong and also appear arguing in bad faith or with the least possible effort.

    If by inaction or dumb action you get the candidate elected that you least support, you have helped said candidate into office. You had the power to choose, and from their perspective you helped them. You can argue that by not supporting a candidate that’s all you did, but the pyrrhic “victory” here is just moving the reference frame. Voting is teleological yo: why you did what you did doesn’t matter, only the outcome does.
