Wrong. Dead fucking wrong. Due to our current shitty system the only parties with any chance of winning are Dems or GOP, every vote that doesn’t go to the Dems is another point the GOP has over them. If you don’t vote for Dems you’re facilitating fascism. Simple as.
I don’t like our choices but we don’t have the option to be fucking picky right now, there’s fascists at the door and they’re working hard to ruin our lives.
voting for the lesser evil will only serve to guarantee that you will forever be voting for the lesser evil and that you will reach the same evil that the alternative raced towards, but slower.
Thats really poetic but observe our choices in reality in relation to the systems we built to usher them in. You don’t cut your parachute just because you’re falling anyway.
The lesser evil is by definition the better choice! If you refuse to vote for the lesser of two evils, you are effectively choosing the greater evil. It does not get any stupider than that.
This is exactly the kind of situation the trolley problem was invented to illustrate… and I’ve never seen anyone fail at it so badly with such a weird take.
You’ll allow the greater evil to happen because you don’t want to have any part or any responsibility in helping a lesser evil happen. But you do have responsibility, because you do have a choice. In the trolley problem, f you never knew about the lever, you couldn’t be asked to pull it or not. In the election problem, if you can’t vote you have no responsibility. But the trolley problem states you know about the lever, and in the election scenario, you do have a vote. So you are involved no matter what. And that means you’re just as guilty as the person who acted; only your action resulted in more deaths than the person who acted either way. Yours was the worst possible choice.
Try flipping the words from evil to good. The greater evil is worse, and the lesser evil is better. Therefore, you are choosing the worse scenario rather than the better one. It’s ridiculously absurd.

My god, what a stupid take.

you are choosing not to vote for evil.
And allowing the greater evil to win.
in the trolley scenario, i don’t touch the lever. you can choose to be a murderer, but i won’t.
In the trolley scenario, you chose to let 6 people die. Neither choice makes you a murderer. But one choice causes much more harm than the other.
flipping the switch makes you a murderer.

The fascists at the door were invited in by democrat enablers
voting for Democrats facilitates fascism.
Fascism is, by it’s definition, a right wing ideology, not a left wing ideology.
It’s OK to admit when you don’t know something. We can help!

Democrats, at worst, are centrist, not right wing. If you can’t comprehend basic terminology then perhaps this is not the community for you.
