@ThatWouldBeTelling @meowski @brad @idea_enjoyer @lichelordgodfrey @unabomber I understand the desire to compromise; I've battled this internally and spoken with friends about it at length. The core question as I see it
>Is it the lesser of two evils to vote for a man who doesn't represent your interests at all and is only marginally less hostile to you, or is better to protest (either third party, write-in, or abstain) as a way of letting a dying system fail in the hopes of a better replacement?
I don't think there's a universal answer. The stability that "conservatives" want doesn't always come from a place of selfishness, nor does the desire for revolutionary change from the more radical. My children's lives will be objectively worse in the short to intermediate term with another 4 years of Biden, which we will certainly get if all right-wingers decided to flip the bird to the system. They'll also be stuck in a system ruled by oligarchs, serving foreign powers, far longer if a Republican gets into office. It's quite the mess. Ultimately, 'revolution' is still plan trusting even if it's trying to force the system's hands.
