    Yes, the classic “lesser of two evils” stance to justify an arbitrary formation of social support behind “literally anything better than the worst possible thing”. And in this context right now, actually being used to shut down all criticism of anything besides the “worst possible thing”. No awareness at all about all the other better alternatives. You could actually prove that this mentality drives the status quo further towards “fascism” or any other negative totalitarian outcome, because you’re specifically forbidding criticism of what’s going wrong with who you support.

    It is not a well thought-out stance.
