      It’s a two party system. Not voting for one of the two is as good as voting for the one for like least. You’re depriving the one who’s less bad of a vote. That’s how the party system works. You need to put down your principles once we’re at the final stage and make the choice that is least worst for you.

      To put it in perspective: if it was Biden vs literally dying, would you still not vote for Biden? We’re not quite there, but it’s close: potential end of democracy.

        we’re not a democracy, we never have been, and that’s a good thing: democracy is bad.
