As a South American who had to choose between right and extreme right, being a leftist, I completely understand the frustration about voting Biden. And what's more, agree completely he does not deserve to be voted. But, in order to defeat fascism and with all other cards now played, Biden is the lesser of two evils and taking the moral high ground could result on fascism taking over the USA. I suggest voting for Biden. My two cents...

I understand your stance and respect your freedom to do that. I myself have held my nose and voted for the lesser evil many times in my life.

But now that the lesser evil is literally evil, I can’t do it anymore. I can’t back Trump or Biden. I won’t vote for a genocide.

If a genocide happens, it won’t be by my vote. And if this country collapses under Trump, it’s only the inevitable happening a little sooner.

When folks start winding up in camps,I hope you'll take comfort in the thought of "I didn't do anything to stop it, so it's not my fault!"

If, 30 years from now, the choice is between a democrat who wants 5 genocides and a republican who wants 10, will you still cling to American electoralism as hard as you are now? Will you still be militantly democrat?

This logic isn't sustainable.

Finally, a tankie with some sense.

I wonder if people who use tankie (and similar) unironically would like a Fischer Price See n Say for politics. It would produce random quotes out of context and people can have fun putting them into arbitrary categories.

I'm a green voter. I have voted green in the past three presidential elections, and intend to do so again this year. If you have an argument as to why that's a bad idea that isn't one that I've heard before, get in touch!
